What is it about beautiful places that brings out the worst in people? More times than I’d care to admit to, I’ve witnessed people coming unglued and acting like animals while spending time in exotic locations (or places intended for rest and relaxation). Sometimes couples leave for destinations like Mexico or the Bahamas and onlyContinue reading “May 17, 2021 – Trouble in Paradise”

May 15, 2021 – Revenge is a dish best served cold.
When I was around the age of 10, I got an opportunity to ride on a horse for the first time in my life. We lived in a residential neighborhood but the covenants and/or the city allowed people to keep a horse (or two) on their property. My family didn’t have the means to ownContinue reading “May 15, 2021 – Revenge is a dish best served cold.”
May 9, 2021 – Things I Ponder
Each day, things come to my attention that I cannot help but wonder about. Why am I the way I am and is there any hope for me? Why were spiders created and why do they torment me so? Will I ever figure out what I want from life or will it forever elude me?Continue reading “May 9, 2021 – Things I Ponder”
May 7, 2021 – On the outside looking in.
I don’t know what it is about me but I feel like for the better part of my life, I’ve been ‘on the outside looking in’. It’s almost as if the world is a swimming pool filled with people (splashing about and laughing) and they’re all calling out to me, “Come on in, the water’sContinue reading “May 7, 2021 – On the outside looking in.”
May 5, 2021 – Travel Planning for Dummies
Just to see the shocked expression on your face, I am tempted to show you a screenshot of my email inbox. Seriously, there have to be dozens of emails relating to reservations (made, modified, and cancelled). I think I’ve got a screw loose! I have never vacillated this much between dates and whether to flyContinue reading “May 5, 2021 – Travel Planning for Dummies”
May 3, 2021 – Wet Blanket Syndrome
I suffer from a number of maladies, my friends, one of which is ‘wet blanket syndrome’. Do not mistake it for ‘wet bed syndrome’ because although I did suffer from that in the past, I can say with a fair amount of confidence that that is no longer the case. No, I have ‘wet blanketContinue reading “May 3, 2021 – Wet Blanket Syndrome”
May 1, 2021 – The Latest
Alright, Safeway, we need to have a talk. Once again I have fallen for your ruse, hook, line, and sinker. When I heard you brought back the Monopoly Game, my heart nearly skipped a beat. The day the contest kicked off, I made a beeline for the nearest store with the hope that ‘maybe thisContinue reading “May 1, 2021 – The Latest”
April 29, 2021 – Kayak ownership and all that it entails.
Help!! My husband’s got the ‘fever’. I thought that when he purchased this large piece of molded plastic (aka a ‘kayak’), there wouldn’t be much more that we’d have to invest in. Boy, was I wrong! It’s a pedal kayak and it came with an oar/paddle and a special gadget with wheels (to help guideContinue reading “April 29, 2021 – Kayak ownership and all that it entails.”
April 25, 2021 – My husband, the hobbyist.
It is interesting what you learn about someone when you decide to marry after only dating for nine months. I’m surprised I don’t have whiplash from all of the times I’ve had to swiftly stomp on the brakes each time he would ‘reveal’ another side of himself. Honestly, I don’t believe I could have beenContinue reading “April 25, 2021 – My husband, the hobbyist.”
April 23, 2021 – Always have a ‘Plan B’.
My husband and I are taking a trip next month. I suspect it’s going to be an annual one. We did it last year and it went so well that we’re going to do it yet again. We’re actually just returning to where we used to reside before we moved to where we currently live.Continue reading “April 23, 2021 – Always have a ‘Plan B’.”
