Ides, a day in the Roman calender
that marked the approximate middle of the month.
Specifically, this may refer to the Ides of March,
the date of Julius Caesar's assassination.
However, every month had its ides:
the 15th day of March, May, July or October,
or the 13th day of any other month.
Ides may also mean this day
and the seven days preceding it,
counting backward toward the nones.
I am slinking about the hacienda preparing for the miasma that will rise from Lake Hamilton tomorrow, 15 March 2009. My best Carmen Miranda confection is at the ready to repel fetid vapors on that Day ... The Ides of March. No ill winds will dare approach me or mine as I fabulously sashay up and down my Shangri-La Deck !!
Shakin' a leg!

PS Yes, I continue to feel relatively good as you may have surmised.
PPS This guy who calls himself "jaz" has been kinda harrassing me. He suggested that prancing about on a porch with fruit on my head might not be my highest calling? Some folks really do just get beyond their station!!!
When we feel responsible, concerned and committed,we begin to feel deep emotion and great courage.

Dear Judy, My computer only works now and then, but today I was able to get your blogspot and enjoyed hearing and seeing you. Love your new dress designs, especially the black hat and you outdid Carmen with your frutti tutti costume. Glad the sense of humor is still good. The arrival of the new baby next week is the topic of conversation here. It is hard for me to believe Brad ,in his 50's having his second son! Just think how it will be when he has teenagers? Think of you every day, you are an inspiration. Kelsey
