Things that last (Typewriters)… things that don’t computers…

Seems like every day my computer gets upgraded… but it doesn’t work any better.  With a typewriter a little oil and instant improvement… no upgrade required.

Only attached typewriter keys for me…

Just don’t get it… much better attached to a typewriter than hanging on someone’s ear… or neck… or arm or finger.

Good thoughts… good things… seem to follow

Nice things happen today.  And this 1918 Underwood works nice this day as well.

Sweetness… and Honey… go together!

A generious spirit is recalled… and kindness returned.  I called my mother “Honey”.

Reflections on rainbow days…

Lost brings with it knowledge of things worth having and keeping and cherishing.  Growth is the positive result of the manure life puts you in.

1960 Erika… 10 on looks… 4 on performance.

It looks nice… oh so pretty… but it may take a while for me to warm up to machine.

When I recall 1960… “The Flintstones” is all I remember

I tried to recall what I recall from 1960… the year this typewriter was made.  Nothing much jumped out.

Sweet comeback… or just sweet tooth?

Hostess is back on the shelf… and I had to eat some to see if they are as “sweet” as I remember?
