Well I managed to survive the week of June without much incident. From Father's Day through the 20th was a tough week and is every year, so much so that the rest of June seems incredibly insignificant. The Solstice came and went without much fuss and to my disappointment. I do this to myself. My … Continue reading The Week of June

Annual Evaluation – Internal Spring Cleaning
On May 1st, 2014 it will officially be one year at this job, definitely doesn't feel like it has been that long most of the time. Mostly, I very much like the job and the coworkers and the boss-lady. Mostly, I truly enjoy the actual work and the people we interact with daily. The hours … Continue reading Annual Evaluation – Internal Spring Cleaning
Mush Fest
A few days ago the husband and I were grocery shopping and I said something (I have no idea what it was now) but my husband turned towards me, gently took my face in his hands and kissed me, said he loved me and continued shopping.

A Rainy Evening
It's a beautiful rainy evening so I decided to sit outside on the balcony and have a snack of dried apricots and milk and a little Candy Crush on the tablet. Apparently, in doing this my ears perked up and I was noticing all kinds of sounds. Crows and Seahawks chatting with each other, wind … Continue reading A Rainy Evening

I'm having … Continue reading The Day That Changed My Life
My Valentine Story
1987 - Some Kind of Wonderful came out in the movie theaters. Instantly, it was my life's dream to have a pair of diamond stud earrings. Somehow this just seemed like a far away goal that would never really happen but in my teenage head I had hopes. As I got older the little dream … Continue reading My Valentine Story
Health Code Crusher
I have a new reality show suggestion: Maybe call it "Health Code Crusher" I want royalties if this is created. You know all these restaurant renovation shows such as Restaurant: Impossible, Bar Rescue and Restaurant Takeover?

“Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk”
Bill O'Reilly Turned Me Into Curly Howard We tend to watch Bill during dinner and now n then he really frustrates me with his interruptions. Now I get why he does it in some cases but then there's times like tonight where he asks a question, follows up that he just doesn't understand and his … Continue reading “Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk”
Peter O’Toole, With Great Respect
An actor I will truly miss seeing on the big screen is Peter O'Toole. When I was a child my mother often turned on the old movies, Lawrence of Arabia and The Lion In Winter were favorites of mine. No matter the character he played in a movie or how large or small the role, … Continue reading Peter O’Toole, With Great Respect
