I typically don’t do a lot with community theater over the summer. It’s a very busy time for me, and the season is so short that I don’t want a lot of commitments keeping me indoors and away from all that warmth and sunshine. But in early June the community theater held its annual membership... Continue Reading →
Last week as I was walking to work, noticing little things along the way as I always do, I spotted something quite different. As I passed a home in mid-block where I had crossed the street – yes I am a chronic jay-walker, rebel that I am – I noticed that someone, I assume a... Continue Reading →
Well it's been almost a year, and I think everyone's pretty much just done with it. I mean, it's to the point where you can actually feel it. Everything is kind of 'meh' and the spark just isn't there, the mojo is gone, whatever euphemism you choose to use here, but they all apply. We've... Continue Reading →
And in a lot of ways, it's still not over. Hopefully we've found ways of coping with it. Or maybe we're still figuring it out. Either way, we've discovered a lot about ourselves since last March, whether we wanted to or not. When the big shut down came, I'll admit it was scary. I remember feeling... Continue Reading →
It had been a good week, but still, I was happy for it to be Friday. I was looking forward to a weekend with no commitments, heaven for an introvert. I got home, changed out of my work clothes into something soft and comfortable, and after making supper, I crashed on the couch for a... Continue Reading →
There’s nothing quite like the quintessential church picnic. June is the month for a lot of church picnics in the area, and I think it’s just a lovely way to spend a few hours. So I spent some time at a local celebration a few weeks ago, and really had a great time. One of... Continue Reading →
Funny how inspiration comes from the unlikeliest of places at times. Today was that kind of day. Actually, the last few days were that kind of day. A "Polar Vortex" had hit Wisconsin and the whole state kind of shut down over the span of three days. Oh, we fought it though. We kept going... Continue Reading →
My dog, Ms. K, will be thirteen years old on Labor Day. I've had her since she was seven. We've shared a lot of special moments, her and I. She's no ordinary dog. However, with the number of years she is along, she has slowed down a bit. Her hearing is fading, along with her... Continue Reading →
It’s been an interesting week. My dog seemed to suddenly lose her hearing, and although she’s an older dog, it seemed to me that her hearing would fade gradually, not overnight. I was concerned, but it took a while before I could get her in to see the vet. Meanwhile, life became very interesting. The... Continue Reading →
My Sunday began with a glance out my front window to see a woman politely waiting for a squirrel to cross the street. She had been driving down the street when the squirrel appeared, and stopped to allow it to pass unharmed. The squirrel almost made it across but was frightened back by a truck... Continue Reading →
