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? […]

Tycho and Sympathy

I need to go shopping and it’s far easier on Sundays, as the bus stops closer to my house, but I’m starting to suspect that there is no shopping trip in today’s future. I’m far too comfy. We’ll see how I feel after The Kennedys weekly live stream. Rediscovering my soled slipper socks has made […]

Perseverance and Ingenuity

I’m doing something foolish. I’m writing this while watching NASA TV; the Perseverance rover is landing on Mars. There’s nothing to see but simulations but I’m still enthralled. Sputnik was launched two and a half months after I was born. I’m the same age as the Space Age. Spaceflight is in my cohort. The parachute […]

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 […]

Stop Thief!

The heat was out again; this time I didn’t wait, I put on an extra hoodie and warmer slippers. It did not reach mukluk cold. Now the heat is back, and the extra hoodie is off and I’m debating putting on my regular slipper socks. My toes are on the edge of being too warm […]

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 […]

The Wisdom to Know the Difference

Yesterday got away from me and I never blogged. I went to make one call before I started and it lasted three and a half  hours. I’m not complaining. That’s the kind of thing that makes quarantining manageable. I’d rather have done that than blogged, but I’d rather remember what I was planning on writing […]

The Love For Three Oranges

I said in my last entry that my KN95 masks were arriving Tuesday. I was wrong, they came yesterday. Once they were in my hand I felt safe to go shopping. I put a new mask on, put an old cloth mask in my pocket to wear on top while I was on the bus […]
