I keep getting locked out of my blog! I have no idea how, and it took me two weeks this time to get back in. But I finally (obviously) did. It is the beginning of June. Already. Where did the rest of the year go? To fast. I feel like I am not getting anything…

So, it is after midnight here, which means I am officially 60 years old. I don’t feel like I am 60, mostly. My brain is pretty sure I am 30, but my body feels significantly older. But right now, I am thinking about my mom. It has been happening a lot lately. After my first…

TRIGGER WARNING: Straight talk about a dog attack and the aftermath We had a major loss a few days ago. The title pretty much says it. My daughter and my daughter-in-law were walking their two little dogs. I say little because they were both chihuahuas. One weighs about 7lbs an the other right at 4lbs.…

Again, I have fallen behind. I think it is probably because I should be working on my dissertation, but have become frustrated with it. My advisor said I was done with my chapter, and that it was well done. My subject matter expert (SME) said I wasn’t done and I need to work on the…

It is almost the end of October already. I can’t say that I will be sorry to leave this year behind us soon, but I can’t say that just changing the year on the calendar will make a difference. What a year it has been! Cancer diagnosis. Cruise! Cancer surgery. Car accident. Daughter and co.…

My children are ridiculous! But I must say that this last thing has left me speechless. One of my kids decided that since the other didn’t unload the dishwasher immediately when told to, he was ‘weaponizing incompetence’. Seriously? Who talks like that? My kids, that’s who. And people wonder why I am losing what is…

Ah, living in the Pacific Northwest, where there is as much moss in the lawn as grass. At least the moss is green. After the hot summer, the grass is not. It went from 100* on Saturday to 58* today. Not a fan. I like sunshine. 100* is excessive, but I like warm weather. After…
Shhh.... I have a secret
