Happy Friday! Today is my half-birthday. Huzzah huzzah. I don’t celebrate it but I’ve mentally observed it since I was a kid. This year I marked it by going to the doctor’s office to have my left ear looked at…

February 2021 Extras
Here are some photos and thoughts from February that were a little thin for their own posts.
Listening to: DMB LIVE TRAX
DMB’s new stuff is good (although I do miss the violin) but there is something about the early playlists that bring me back to warm, hopeful summers. This is the YouTube playlist of the entire album, recorded at a concert…
Friday 5: A Clubhouse Ain’t Nothing but a Sandwich
Guess what I did today? I was supposed to receive the first jab last week but the winter storm postponed my appointment until today. Even though I did not jump the line (I have moderate asthma and of course the…

Friday 5: Couples Therapy
Happy Friday! I am going to need therapy if it continues to snow once a week. It’s pretty and it wasn’t a lot but we are definitely in the deep of winter now and I’m feeling the misery. I’ve been…
January and Valentine’s Cards
More cardmaking shenanigans! I am part of a website’s card club, and each month we send cards to others who want them. My ‘receiving’ months are March (spring! half-birthday!) and September (birthday! cheer me up because autumn is awful!). The…
