There is nothing quite like a massage to reset your body as well as your mind. I didn’t have my first massage until well into adulthood when my husband purchased one for me as a birthday gift. After the session, I felt a state of relaxation I had never felt before. It was w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l (asideContinue reading “November 17, 2020 – Massage Encounters”

November 15, 2020 – Dreams and Desires
Each day that I write, I never know where it’s going to take me. It can lead virtually anywhere. But that’s the beauty of it, I suppose. The possibilities are endless. Today I thought a lot about where this could potentially lead. I am enjoying writing more than any other creative outlet that I’ve pursued.Continue reading “November 15, 2020 – Dreams and Desires”
November 13, 2020 – Skiing isn’t for everyone.
Throughout my childhood, I spent a lot of time outdoors. It didn’t matter what season it was, I always found something to keep myself busy and out of trouble. Winter wasn’t particularly fun, because usually it just rained and rained and rained some more. But on a rare occasion, the winter doldrums would be replacedContinue reading “November 13, 2020 – Skiing isn’t for everyone.”
November 12, 2020 – A thank you card would have been nice.
I work hard for my money, at least I did until I was laid off, so if you have an event or an occasion or a party or a celebration and I bought you a gift, I’d really appreciate some acknowledgement in writing. It doesn’t need to cost a lot of money, nor does itContinue reading “November 12, 2020 – A thank you card would have been nice.”
November 11, 2020 – Catch of the day!
Decades ago, when I was a young girl, there was nothing quite like spending the afternoon at one of the nearby lakes, especially on a warm summer’s day. Each of them were within walking or biking distance and they proved a delightful way to wile away the hours when you had nothing better to do.Continue reading “November 11, 2020 – Catch of the day!”
November 9, 2020 – Dog Poop Etiquette
Every other day I walk my dog. She demands it. It doesn’t matter what the temperature is or how tired I am, we are taking that walk. Generally, once I set out, it actually is a pretty pleasant experience. It’s always good to get some fresh air and if it’s a sunny day, even better.Continue reading “November 9, 2020 – Dog Poop Etiquette”
November 7, 2020 – Buyer Beware
The meaning of words can be very subjective, depending on who you ask. This is especially true when you’re trying to describe the condition of something. What one person might deem as ‘excellent’ may only qualify as ‘fair’ to someone else. There is one place on the internet where I find this to be aContinue reading “November 7, 2020 – Buyer Beware”
November 4, 2020 – Once upon a ‘timeshare’.
Many years ago, there was a man, a very disreputable, unsavory character that was always trying to find ways to make a quick buck. He tried a few ‘get rich quick’ schemes but they never amounted to much. There were pyramid schemes, but he could never seem to rise above the lowest level, and forContinue reading “November 4, 2020 – Once upon a ‘timeshare’.”
November 1, 2020 – A very follicular fable.
There’s nothing quite like sitting down at the table and plunging your fork into a nice, healthy portion of lasagna only to discover it’s got a secret ingredient, a piece of your own hair. You won’t realize this, of course, until you put it in your mouth and start to chew, and then it willContinue reading “November 1, 2020 – A very follicular fable.”
October 31, 2020 – Fixer Uppers
There’s something about fixer uppers. They always seem to seduce me somehow. Maybe it’s the warped floors and the paneled walls or those oh-so-adorable-and-practical original, single pane, aluminum windows? Or perhaps it’s the dated bathrooms with turquoise fixtures and galvanized pipes that prove nearly impossible to resist? So cute! And the charm of the warped,Continue reading “October 31, 2020 – Fixer Uppers”
