    2021-04-07 Dirt Therapy and Other Vaccination Day Musings…

    I haven’t written much for a few days. But there’s not much to write about. 🤷‍♀️ Spring is in the air and I’m slowly getting into the groove of garden work. This is going to be my year for enjoying one of my favorite activities. This year I don’t have to balance a job with…

    2021-04-02 What is it they say again about doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result?….

    It’s going to be a beautiful day today and I have every intention of getting out there and enjoying it. I am going to CB and will see my mom but my aim is to spend a little time catching up with my sister.  But first I’m gonna treat myself to an exercise class called…

    2021-04-01 Hello April! 🌷

    Thank goodness that’s over! March… what an asshole!!  And thank the Universe that the month didn’t go out like a lion and that our furry friend, Punxsutawney Phil, is wrong more than he is right. It IS Nebraska and there’s still a chance that Mother Nature will show some wrath, but my intuition doubts it.…

    2021-03-30 Woe is the Melancholy Way

    Today is the first day in 3 weeks I haven’t had to either go to the ER, the hospital, or my moms house. My sister is driving from Denver as I type this and I feel a weight lifting.  Last night everyone at my house was otherwise occupied doing their own thing and I took…

    2021-03-29 All Time Can Be “Me Time”… 🧘‍♀️

    Our days are filled with responsibilities and tasks and it is common to feel that we don’t have enough time for ourselves in our over scheduled lives. We can cultivate “me time” by establishing mindfulness in our bodies through a steady awareness of our breath or our posture. This gives us the super power of…

    2021-03-27 Time to Rebalance… ⚖️

    Where did I leave off? Oh yeah, the sudden and drastic health issues my mom has suffered from and will continue to suffer from for an unforeseeable number of months to come. Somehow I need to find balance. I can’t let it take over my life. The last three weeks were a rolling set of…

    2021-03-26 The Princess and Her Particularity 👑

    It’s just past 6AM and I could use a nap. Oh how I want a do-over for my day yesterday or my night last night. What would I do differently? Not sure, but it’s just really rotten that I have to wake up, not in my own house and bed and then be tired on…

    2021-03-26 The light at the end of the tunnel…

    My mom is being discharged from the hospital today. Who gets to deal with getting her home, grocery shopping, fetching a walker, and staying with her at her home to make sure she’s ok and not at risk for falling down or ripping her stitches, ostomy, or drain tubes?  That would be yours truly.  She’s…
