Blue's Coloured Thursday

This chess set and clock are in my living room.

Chocolate cupcakes! My granddaughter, Faith, made them for Halloween. They have candy worms on top.

Smart or Dumb?

My nephew, Ian, was visiting my sisters and I in Nevada. He told us he read an article saying that scientists are developing a "Smart Pill" to increase people's intelligence. "I would buy those pills," Ian said.


My sister Liz said, "There's no way I would take a pill to make me smarter."

"Why not?" Ian asked.

"Are you kidding," she said. "Haven't you noticed how happy dumb people are? I wish I could take a 'Stupid Pill', maybe I'd be happier."

We all laughed, it was the last thing I thought she would say. She has a high IQ; both my sisters do. I don't know what happened to me, but trust me, I am not as smart as they are.

I don't know if Liz was right about stupid people being happier. I just wouldn't take any pill that messed with my mind. After 60 years, I finally have all my marbles in a row up there; I'm not taking any chances.
