Usually by April and May, the last place I want to go is a mall. Why?

After the family went through their isolation periods and resumed normal life, I got sick. Testing showed negative but I’m a hermit so I continued doing what I usually do (stay home) and now I’m at the tail end of this head cold.
But, during a coughing attack last week I dislocated something in my lower back.
I do not have back issues. This never happened before.

Well I played around with youtube. 🙂

You need me to do something for you? BRING IT.
Everyone else does.
Continue reading “Pile it on”This is what my life feels like at the moment – suspended in a holding pattern. Like those planes, when they try to land at an airport but the airport is busy and the incoming plane has to wait its turn for a designated time slot to begin approach. They stack them, like a coil in the sky…
Anyway, I won’t go on about it, but today’s holding pattern (I have multiple ones, ugh) is brought to you by covid. Meh.
Continue reading “Holding patterns”A few weeks ago I had a first-time experience at a nail salon. 💅
My 14 year old daughter was staying with me and my mom over parts of her spring break when she approached me with this:
“I know you’ve never been to a nail salon,” she said. “I thought it might be fun for us to do this together.”
Now, how can I say no to such a cute invitation?

This is a baseball expression and means something unexpected and surprising happens for which you are unprepared.
Well it happened and it derailed me (again). But this time, it’s not a superficial misunderstanding, a miscommunication or some other unimportant-in-the-grand-scheme-of-things issue which left me hanging in mid air, unresolved.
Not this time.

My teen girl and I were dealing with the aftermath of a phone call from a family member who had just called and talked to my mom.
Sonja and I were in the same room while she talked on the phone.

I’m excited; what mysterious adventures lie beyond the mountain?

Everybody left early and only I came back to the house.

There is something peaceful about early mornings. It’s a time that belongs all to myself.
It’s quiet. Most, almost all people I know are still asleep. There’s a serenity that fuels my soul and spirit when the sky is showing just a hint of colour by the impending sunrise.
