Walking in Circles

I went out yesterday! The weather was beautiful, and I needed food, so I decided to walk to Aldi. I haven’t done that since last summer. I even walked home, a different route than I went. My path was close to a circle as I have to walk around the reservoir. There’s only one thing […]

I used to have things to write about

I’m not dead! Sorry I haven’t posted. I’m apologize the most to myself. This has not been good selfcare. I have spent so much of the last few days sleeping. I’m going to have to discuss this with my psychiatrist. Is it my meds? It doesn’t feel like it. I had med related sleepiness and […]

Forget the Dems and the Reps, I Want to Join the Chocolate Party

Today I’m going to write about the best thing in the world, Love? No. Health? No. Music? No. Family? Try again. Come on this is easy. That’s right, chocolate. Yesterday was Skyler and Shirley’s annual chocolate party. They appreciate chocolate; when they got married neither one of them wanted to change their last name so […]

I Like to Talk

I didn’t post yesterday and did not have a good excuse. I have plenty to do today but I will write anyway. It’s being constructive as a form of procrastination. I know I’m not the only one that does that. How many of you have cleaned your house as a way of avoiding another chore? […]

I have so much to do so of course I’m going to blog. The fact that I don’t know what I’m going to write about won’t stop me. I won’t bury the lede, I’m getting my COVID-19 vaccine tomorrow. I became eligible on February 15. I read that I could make appointments starting on the […]

This Bird Has Flown

I’ve managed to start writing at 11 AM even though I had breakfast first. This is a new development. I made the one-pan egg, ham, and cheese sandwich. I haven’t made that for a while. That’s because I haven’t had the good bread in the house. I still don’t, but what I have is at […]

Amanda for All Seasons

Yesterday I was a real American, I watched the Super Bowl. I timed things well. I sat down to eat dinner as Amanda Gorman was about to read her poem. She has become a celebrity poet. Have we had one before? Maybe Robert Frost but I was too young to remember that well. The Super […]

Getting Blacks Vaxxed

It’s Super Bowl Sunday. Does that mean I should write about football? No, it doesn’t. I got tired early last night, I thought of going to sleep before 11 PM. I didn’t because I wanted to record Gord’s Gold first. Why didn’t I record it then? It was too loud. I was waiting for things […]

Infusion Serendipity

Yesterday’s adventures revolve around my infusion. The car service arrived early so I rushed to get down there. I didn’t forget anything, but I did overdress. It was quite a bit warmer than I was prepared for. I never zipped up my jacket or wore my hat and gloves. Medicaid provides the car to take […]

The Au Rule

I forgot to blog today. How did that happen? It’s not like I had so much to do. I was scheduled to have my infusion today. Snow was forecast so I suspected it might get canceled. When I woke up my phone screamed at me. It was an Emergency Weather Alert. There was an official […]
