Happy Day!
Things are coming together. I unearthed the washer and dryer from the sea of boxes. They both work perfectly, so we now have clean dry clothes hanging in closets. No small accomplishment there. My wonderful father is turning 80 today and we have a few surprises for him. My fingers are crossed that all goes…

Single Parent Dragons
Being a single parent among the dragons is unheard of. In dragon culture if a youngster is conceived and birthed to a nonmated pair, it is left in the care of the territory dragon. If a female rejects her offspring, it is left in the care of a territory dragon. If a youngster is too…

Twisted Thinking
🤔 In the NewEarth Series there is a general understanding that any individuals thinking can get twisted easily. It is up to their friends and clan members to untwist them.

My Understanding
There are people who know down to the melecular patterns why one type of food gives you more gas than another. I am content with my understanding that beans are a magical fruit and make you toot.

Back Again
We have returned…and armed with cleaners, duster, carpet cleaner and rags, I am going to blow like a tornado through that house, packing, cleaning and getting it all done so we can blow out again.

Dragons and Humans
There are many physical differences between humans and dragons, yet they catch many of the same diseases, and can be treated with the same brews and energy. They are different about how they mature and when; but humans sexually mature first, as do dragons. Later they physically, intellectually, and emotionally mature. Dragons fly, humans walk,…
