Hello and huzzah from my sofa, where I am languishing with my third cold in three months. Lately I feel like if someone sneezes three houses down, I get sick. There’s some chatter in scientific circles about Covid possibly knocking…
Friday 5: Double Stuf
Happy Friday! I am off from work today and feeling peppy (for now) so let’s give the Friday 5 a quick whirl, shall we? This week’s theme is Double Stuf. While I enjoy Double Stuf Oreo, my preferred Oreo is…
Friday 5: Nice
Rabbit rabbit! It’s April 1 and with the exception of the author, this post is 100% fool-free. I am a last-minute call-up to go work TNP’s annual conference in Nashville next week. This weekend, your girl here needs to buy…
Friday 5: Twenty-four months
Hello and happy Friday. Wanna know what I did yesterday? I WENT TO THE OFFICE for the first time since my laptop was acting up in October! I took the train and sat in the mostly empty office and had…
Friday 5: Take me to the old playground
Happy Friday! It’s GORGEOUS here today. The weather inched into the low 70s. I took Murphy for a walk at lunchtime, and after work I planted garlic and lettuce outside! Tomorrow it’s supposed to rain. And Sunday we’re vernal equinoxing!…
Friday 5: Chocolate-covered mothballs: they always satisfy!
Happy Friday, friends, enemies, and everyone in between! I don’t actually think I have enemies. If I do, they’re very quiet and I appreciate the silent beef. Today I had a scheduled day off of work because I had a…

Friday 5: Everything but Yul Brynner
Hullo! I’m still here! Just been a bit quiet lately because we’ve been honkin’ busy getting things settled around here. MIL packed quite a bit of stuff and we’ve been scrambling trying to get everything in a place. Which means…
Friday 5 on Saturday: “Month” is a strange word
So yeah yeah it’s Saturday not Friday but on Thursday this happened: Last night I was burning up with a fever. So much so that I sick-bought a watercolor palette from a TikTok video and wasn’t very aware of it…
Friday 5: Yuputka!
Happy Friday! Lots of sighs of relief this week as some medical tests came back good for me and for others and we can slightly unclench and return to just a normal pandemic-level clenching. I’ve been clenched since September 2019….
Friday 5: Pew Slag
Happy, er, Saturday. I was very sleepy last night, even missed movie night which was Encino Man – a movie that I put on the list! In Bummer, dude. This week’s Friday 5 is PEW SLAG. What recently made you…
