Really Really Dumb Criminals is this week’s Mystery Question. This was supposed to publish yesterday, but my scheduler didn’t work–I thought I had it fixed, but evidently I didn’t! First, I’m glad to be back, and Happy New Year to you all! I am so excited about 2026. It seems I approach every new year with anticipation and wonder. I …
I forgot to announce the November Winner of Steve Hooley’s amazing pen last week! See below… I hope you enjoy the December moon I snapped a shot of with my phone. The new phones have amazing capabilities!! Before I had to use my SLR camera to get the detail in this photo. Did you know the December moon is known …
Answer to Last Week’s Mystery Question–you didn’t think I would leave you hanging until after Christmas, did you? 😉 But first the photo and verse. I love the clouds in Florida…also the warm temps! I took this photo one afternoon on a run with the two border collies you’ve seen on the blog. Right now the temps here are 70° …
Happy Thanksgiving ~ 2025! I wanted to drop in to tell you how thankful I am that you read my blogs! You are the best readers of all. I’m posting a day early because tomorrow will be hectic for me, you, too maybe… I appreciate that you showed up each week to guess my crazy laws or dumb criminal posts …
More Crazy Crimes 11 is this week’s Mystery Question. How can it be possible that there are so many crazy crimes out there? Do criminals not learn from other criminals’ mistakes???

But the photo reminds me that veterans served in all kinds of weather and situations. Serving was a sacrifice, not a cushy job. To all veterans, thank you for serving! In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as …
More Crazy Crimes 9 is this week’s Mystery Question. They keep getting crazier and crazier, but if they didn’t, I wouldn’t have a post! Also, I’m posting a day early because I want to post a Veterans Day blog. The photo is one my daughter sent me of the full moon last week. I hope you saw it–it was gorgeous! …
November Reader Friday will unfortunately be the last Reader Friday until I finish my latest manuscript as I simply don’t have time to read very much right now. I hate it because I really enjoy reading the books and writing reviews, but my deadline is looming and I have to crawl into my writing cave and work! I will continue …
More Crazy Crimes 8 is this week’s Mystery Question. But first the photo and verse. I passed this tree today on my way to a doctor’s appointment, but didn’t have time to snap a photo.
