Why should kids have all the fun?
I like lists. On my desk at work I keep a list of things I need to do and another list of things I want to do. I use a grocery list at the store, made from the list of dinners planned for the week. I make and request lists for birthdays and Christmas. I […]
Read More These Are A Few of My Favorite ThingsGame plan: order some kind of identifiable meat and be comforted by the idea of bread.
Read More We Ate Things We Didn’t RecognizeI’m amazed, and frankly a little scared, at how fast time passes. A lot has happened since I last wrote and yet somehow I can’t believe it’s been over a year. 2018 was in most ways a year like any other. I worked, I ate, I laughed, I cried, I moved. Ah, yes, the ever […]

Read More Waking Up in a Different Time ZoneI managed to record my dreams, or at least, attempted to capture and recount strange fragments of an alternate reality.

I am one of those people who remember their dreams. […]

The big deadline in my future is the move to California. As deadlines go it’s not exactly looming. As I write this I have about […]
Read More Everything Must Go!You may not realize it but April is National Poetry Month. Which means it’s the perfect month for this particular challenge: WRITE A POEM. If you are like me you don’t spend a lot of time thinking about poetry. I probably haven’t written a poem since I was in school…possibly grade school. The good news is […]
Read More Ode to a DogI’ve spent some time writing blog posts about not-so-important topics and hoping someone will read them. Now, it’s time to write a letter about an issue that is important to me and hope that someone reads it. WRITE A LETTER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I’ve never written a letter to any of my congressional representatives. […]
Read More Words Into ActionI’ve struggled to decide how to recap the quest for a good luck charm. I don’t have one.
