Here We Go Again

Periodically, I decide to get my life together. That’s not as down-on-me as it may sound, because I think a lot of us do it this way. We come with a plan, we follow it (or not) and we end up hopefully doing a little better than we were before. And then we gather our […]

Mid-January Already

(dad-blast it! I swear I posted this when I wrote it, but here it is in drafts…argh!) I am home, but I am still waiting. I do have my bed! My dear wonderful bed, that is so flipping comfy, with everything I need in reach. My desktop, on a desk with a keyboard shelf and

First Day of December

It’s a new month. It’s the end of 2023. And all I have to say is…what the fuck? What the ACTUAL FUCK? It’s been rough. As mentioned last post, on October 8th, I woke to the never-welcome phrase “Mom, sorry to wake you, but–“ Yeah. We’re still dealing with that. We’re out of the hotel

Another Blog Post!

In the same month! Within a week, even, of the last one! Ooohh… Well, here I am. I tried to think of something intelligent to say, but I didn’t come up with anything. I won’t be letting that get in the way of blogging, though, no sirree! Lots of people with nothing intelligent to say

Maybe Just a Few Too Many Vegetables

Look, it was a miscommunication, okay? The email from Value Veggies said they had eggplant for the early birds, “just ask!” So when I arrived, I asked if they still had eggplant. The lady said, “yes! How many?” “Two, please!” And that’s how I accidentally got two big boxes of vegetables (and two eggplant!) On
