I still want to rant about Crazy Hair Trump but he does have good ideas about keeping work at home.

Today is Easter and I made a rhubarb-strawberry pie for the big kid and couldn't do anything for the younger kid. I am so frustrated.

Brunch was delightful and delicious; those two can sure cook. Now I am at loose ends but stil my brain goes wandering down the story paths.

Obviously Ramona's Barcelona Diary didn't win so it will become a 3 month diary of Ramona in Barcelona. Yes there will be crime and romance. I think it is still up at bookrix.com if you want to go.

I am lazy today but still I have goals.  I was here once in Memphis. Think about what it must have been like at one point in time.

So if Crazy Hair Trump who has more money that all of us can't prove Obama WASN'T born in the ol' USA
what does that say about his power? C'mon, the guy is a reality TV star who makes others look stupid through the work of gifted writers.  I don't think anyone will vote for him.

I have a new story, a month's diary called Ramona's Barcelona Diary up at www.bookrix.com  It's a contest but you don't have to vote.  Read on while I write on. I write -- you read!

Ramona's Barcelona Diary

March 1, 2011 Tuesday

I thought that I would begin a diary. I haven't kept a diary since I was a young girl. I will just put down random thoughts as I ready myself for the biggest adventure in my life. I am getting ready to go Spain to live. There is nothing for me here. My parents are both dead and my sister and I have always been at odds. We're never going to be close. Not ever. I envy those women who say their sisters are their best friends. I have sold or given away many of my possessions. Funny how you realize that your “things” are really worthless. My hutch from long ago when my mother and father down-sized and gave it to me. I kept my beautiful china set in it for all these years. I certainly won't need it in Spain. I don't plan to have any friends and will eat out for most of my meals.

Today I went to the health department and got shots. Nothing too painful. Barcelona is a relatively safe city to live. I gave away my beautiful queen-size bed to a college girl today. She will come with her boyfriend to get it on Saturday. Sleeping around is so simple these days. I wonder how girls just get so devoted without any commitment from the boys. Well, it isn't my place to say what she does with the bed. Or doesn't do. I gave her the beautiful quilt that Joan made me so many years ago. The years before she died she sewed constantly, going even to quilt shows. I think she just missed Dave when he died. He fell over in their garden with a stroke one day. Three days later he died in the hospital. She never admitted she loved him or even missed him. I didn't like him anyway. I missed her when she died three years ago. Anyway the quilt is berry, forest green and gold. I hope the girl keeps her boyfriend's muddy feet off of it. I took good care of it.

The shots have made me sick. I have been lying around the house in my bathrobe. I even opened a can of chicken soup. I must feel very sick before I eat that crap. Do you, Diary, have any idea how much junk is in a can of that stuff? Chicken feet and too much salt. I've given that up and having lemon aid and vodka now. I am feeling much better. You know what, Diary, I feel like you are a silent person, just listening to me in a way that no one else ever has. It is a good feeling. Rather like when I was a child and had an imaginary friend. I suppose the religious would call you the God Diary. I don't believe in fantasies. I am a realist and a fatalist. So there, Diary. Or Diary God.

Still feeling punk. I took a couple of pain pills and a jigger of whiskey. I am going to guess I will be better shortly. I have a lot to do before I leave on April 1st. I don't drink much really. A glass or two with my dinner; whiskey or brandy if I have a cold. I don't dare drink. My father drank. Anyway, Diary, I am confessing to you that I do like wine. Remember when people who drank wine were called winos? Ha. Now they are connoisseurs. I've got this cold and I am going to sleep it off. I still have a lot of time to do what I have to do to get read to move my life to Spain.
