The title of this column is actually a quote by Loren Eiseley. In fact, I used to own a T-shirt with this quote on it. It’s always been an amazing medium to me, that’s for sure. For there is nothing that can create magic quite as easily as water. I always feel better in or... Continue Reading →
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 →
Author's note: I worked for over 12 years at a local newspaper in central Wisconsin called the Portage County Gazette, where I was Production Coordinator and also wrote a weekly column. This is a previously published column from those days. So what’s it like working at the Gazette? Does it seem to be a glamorous... Continue Reading →
As some of you may remember, my wonderful girl Ms. K, who had been with me for over seven years, passed away the week before Thanksgiving 2019. After a month of giving my grief the proper space to process, I began looking for a new companion. Mr. Tee had an adorable photo and profile, and... Continue Reading →

Author's Note: I had to let my dear sweet dog go last week, and adjusting to life without her has been painful and difficult. Here's a story I wrote about her a few years ago. Whether or not you have a dog in your life that you love dearly, I hope you enjoy it. -... Continue Reading →
Oh, this weather, this dreadful weather. I love the seasons, I really do, but this in-between stuff just makes me want to lay on the couch and nap. The dark, the snow, the cold – it’s a recipe for hibernation that’s hard to ignore. I have a lot of projects I want to get to... 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 →
I’ve been loath to write about this subject for a long time, but the time has come. I’m going to come clean and actually admit that I’ve been on an online dating site (or four), and tell you exactly what I think about them. I don't recommend it, it's not pretty. But if you're determined... Continue Reading →
