Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

“Peace and love.” Easy to say but super difficult to feel. Yet, while I’m super tired out from an especially hellish month of work and also family drama and other life stuff… … I’m still doing my best to channel George Michael and hold on to some Christmas cheer. As such, I’m making a list […]

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 This Week Happened…

It’s been a rough week. Earlier, I found out a dear friend died in a motorcycle accident. A utility van crossed the center line and, by doing so, ended her life. It was sudden and still feels unreal and… irritating. Like, I am super irritated about this. Not fair. Not cool and I don’t want […]

This Has Been the Longest Week in Human History and It’s Somehow Still Not Over

Or am I alone in feeling this way? I got a slow start in writing this week’s blog today which means that our super shitty WiFi can’t keep up with my typing so… I type and then slowly watch the words… appear… one by one by one… So this will be short. My back-from-the-dead PC […]

It’s Happening! It’s the END!!!!!

Wellity, wellity. 2020 is coming to an end. Hypothetically. There is still time for the world to end before 2021. But hopefully that won’t happen. After all, we each likely have hard-wired high, misguided hopes for the new year. Because we have to. Survival requires a little hope, sporadically and strategically spread out over our […]

Brad, If You’re Out There, I Have Your Viper Disc

I’ve recently realized I’ve been holding on to a lot of pointless guilt and it has to do with a stranger named Brad whose name is scrawled on the back of the disc golf disc I use… Long ago, I met David who I eventually married and David played disc golf. I had never disc-golfed […]

Moving and the Struggle to Let Go/Avoid Having to Let Go

Aha! Book production is getting a bit more streamlined! My husband has taken over this end of the process as he doesn’t have epilepsy and his hands work better for him. I am secretly pleased that we use a typewriter as the binding weight. Yeah, we have a vintage typewriter which we haul around with […]

CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME

Have any of my ten readers ever been all “Oh wow. I just WISH I COULD BUY SOMETHING!”? No? Well, don’t worry. There are now things to buy. So I saved you some thinking! Since I went on a spastic manic blog writing spree a couple days ago (TWO POSTS IN LIKE SIXTEEN HOURS?!), this […]

Moving Out and We Took the Haunted Mirror With Us (To Goodwill)

Right. So, we started to pack up to ship out. The haunted house had won. Well, it wasn’t as much the weird happenings as much as the whole thing about my mom living her last days and dying in our house. The latter factor was a big one as we didn’t want to continue to […]

Our First House Came With a Haunted Mirror We Didn’t Want

In late September 2014, David and I bought our first house. Since we had very little money and were also looking for “character,” we had been house-hunting for quite awhile. Yet, we had an amazing realtor who specialized in “hard cases” and she got us in to view a lovely old house on the very […]
