My Husband is Gone Away. YAY!
And no he did not finally leave me. He has gone fishing with son number one, and I get three days to myself. He gets a river and a cabin, fish and mosquitoes. I get the whole bed, to not feel the need to plan meals, to eat when I feel like it and do … Continue reading My Husband is Gone Away. YAY!
Changing Plans
It was after eight this morning when I crawled out of bed, glanced out the window and saw the lake. I don't know why I didn't feel like crawling back into bed like I had for most of this week. The desire to close my eyes once again and greet the morning slowly is normal … Continue reading Changing Plans
The Soggy Cheerios Biting Wood Adventure
At the breakfast table I looked out at the misty morning, popped a prescription Naproxen and washed it down with my orange juice while waiting for my Cheerios to get soggy. I don't like soggy Cheerios. Nor do I like taking medication and resent this Naproxen more than you could know. Nevertheless, it is what … Continue reading The Soggy Cheerios Biting Wood Adventure
One Big Reason To Not Envy Men
I spent most of my life envying men. Whether it was my brothers, their friends, the men I worked with over the years, or my own husband and son. I envied their physical strength because, for many years, this wimp couldn't lift or move hardly anything. I envied the sense of entitlement that they didn't … Continue reading One Big Reason To Not Envy Men
Smiles And Chuckles
It's been a relaxing week. Perhaps because I wasn't called "Darlin," by a man less than half my age, or perhaps because there wasn't a workman insisting he talk to "the man" instead of me. But more likely it is because spring has finally arrived, and I got to go outside and play. I got … Continue reading Smiles And Chuckles
Men And Between Men Episode 2
So here we are in Episode 2. I didn't think there would be another episode to the men rant, but there is because I need to get this off my chest. Out of my system, so to speak, so I can sleep tonight. If you recall the last men rant, you may remember that the … Continue reading Men And Between Men Episode 2
Winter Coats To Giant Elephants
It's funny how our interests change as we move through life. Some things we loved to do when we were younger no longer inspire us. For me that thing is sewing. I will do almost anything to avoid sewing. I used to sew every free moment I had. I dropped out of Home Economics and … Continue reading Winter Coats To Giant Elephants
Messy Business
Most human beings are basically lazy. They can't seem to pick up after themselves. They can't seem to be able to teach their kids to pick up after themselves. And this makes me mad. If you really want to piss me off, throw your garbage out the car window. It amazes me how many people … Continue reading Messy Business
Witnessing Happy History
We all witness history every day of our lives. Some of that history we would prefer to not happen, like the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the effects of global warming on our planet. Things like this make us feel helpless and without any power. In order to cope with these things, we try … Continue reading Witnessing Happy History
When The Ditz Rears Her Unfocused Head
When she is dormant, life is calmer. There is less dropping of things and breaking of things and running into things. Multitasking, always a challenge, is much easier. Instructions and processes get carried out correctly or almost correctly. But when that bitchy ditz makes an appearance, things can get crazy and my lack of focus … Continue reading When The Ditz Rears Her Unfocused Head
I Need Playmates
Now doesn't that sound like a whine from a pathetic friendless lonely person who spends her days pining for a life filled with people and social events. I assure you that this is not the case. Although I could probably count the total number of friends I possess on less than two hands; and although … Continue reading I Need Playmates
Men And Between Men
No I am not having an affair. Nor am I between affairs. And no this blog isn't about sex or getting excited over the physically attractive attributes of men in general. I have publically confessed in the past that any sex drive I may have possessed is long gone thanks to a hysterectomy in my … Continue reading Men And Between Men
Endurance
For me, one of the most fascinating stories to appear in the news recently is the discovery to the wreck of the Endurance in Antarctica. The Endurance belonged to explorer Ernest Shackleton. He and his crew of 27 were stranded after the ship became trapped and then crushed by the ice in 1915. The pictures … Continue reading Endurance
Let’s Talk About Bullies
As the current David and Goliath situation between the Ukraine and Russia continues to unfold, I can't help but wonder how far the bully Goliath will go before someone actually offers some serious help to David. I mean more help than refusing to play with the bully and shining blue and yellow lights on international … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Bullies
