2020-10-12 Deno’s Mountain Bistro Steak-burger 4.0 🍔
What’s the criteria for a 4.5 on a 5 point scale? A well seasoned patty cooked to perfection (which translates to cooked as requested by the person ordering it). A toasted bun is a must. Don’t skimp on the cheese. (Or sauce If that’s part of the deal.) Other toppings as desired, also prepared according…

2020-10-11 Winter Park Getaway Day 2: Aclimation and Viewpoint
I woke before the sun again today. 5AM I think. I’m afflicted with the inability to sleep.. in. I mean, I’ve been able to, in the early days of my life and in more recent years if I’ve taken something to help me sleep. But not now. And certainly not here, in a bed that…

2020-10-10 Winter Park Getaway Day 1: It Can Be Whatever You Want
I’m waking up on my second day here in Winter Park Colorado— before the sun and with a fairly healthy headache.

2020-10-07 What Will It Become When Too Much Thought is Involved?
I’m dipping my toe into figuring out what my days look like now that I’m not working. I’m excited to have more time and my first order of business has been to increase my step goal. I changed the goal on my Fitbit from 12K steps a day to 15K. And I’m not limited walking…

2020-10-06 Life as a Kitten Mama
This morning I had to take Gustav to the vet for shots and so I’m getting a strange late start to my day. These days it’s curbside appointments only. You pull up and call when you arrive and they check you in and come out to the car to get your pet. Then you wait…

2020-10-05 A Day at Waubonsie
What must it be like to have your day defined by the hunt for firewood.. or searching for viable acorns? I had a lot of stray thoughts yesterday as my mind tried to walk away from the conversations in play. Someone would say something and I would think about that for a second and then…
