The Olympics of Every Day

Another week of being alive! Huzzah! That opening makes it sound like this week’s blog post is going to be exploding with good news and joy. I’ll do my best. Lately, my neurological realities have been on my mind and I’m trying to feel really grateful for the time I have. That’s not meant to […]

I AM NOT YET DEAD + SHEEP! 🐑

Holy cats! There’s been a gap in my blog posting! The reason is… well, let me use a little MATH: Variable One: I have moved my husband and I from our apartment to our house (I packed all our things, labeled all the boxes, booked the movers, was there for the movers and helped the […]

So You Hate Reading… (Buy My Audiobook 🤷)

Thirty-Eight Resolutions From the Past

When I was trying to finish my doctorate, I often found I couldn’t. Thus, since resolutions are useless, I decided to come up with some because useless things are my specialty, and as usual I couldn’t write about the things I was supposed to be writing about. But I could of course write to complain […]
