2021-02-08 Why Was I Looking Forward to Monday?
It’s Monday and I’ve got my plans. I’ve got every single day of my week loaded up with to-do items. As this day begins, I’m evaluating all of it and (as I start adding more that’s already beaming like neon sign with priority) I think to myself how much of a miracle it will be…

2021-01-17 Reminiscing With My Daughter About My Daughter
Day 2 waking up with cringe-worthy cramps. But.. I’m not going to let it keep me down today. I can do better. I have a little time to collect my thoughts and get my act together. Yesterday I may have “let go” and tried not to let my mood control the day. I may not…

2020-12-25 Merry Efffin Christmas
It’s a mood. It’s not necessarily a bad mood or a good mood. It’s just a mood. Christmas. Whatever. Yesterday I kinda said efff it to stuff and did what I wanted. I had said previously that what would be good was a repeat of thanksgiving. Just us here at the house having fun. No…

2020-12-05 Stranger than Fiction
It’s 3:30am and I’m headed into what I hope is the last long day of a string of long days that has left me sleepless, and full of Negative emotion. Yesterday was the first day I didn’t go across the river to CB and the plans I tried to make with my brother didn’t pan…

2020-12-03 Two Fer One Thursday
Yesterday was another long day that moved faster than the normal speed of time. A late morning request led me back across the river to a floral shop in CB followed by a late lunch. Second day in a row inside a restaurant. Not sure how I feel about that. I also picked up my…

2020-11-27 Save Room for Pie 🥧
Lots of folks lament about not being able to spend time with family for the holiday, or maybe lament isn’t the right word. We’re past lamenting and have arrived at heavy sigh. Truth is, though, I’m grateful for not having to go to some family gathering. I’m sure I’m not alone in that sentiment. How…
