So Many Things

I guess I don’t understand the anger about staying home. I mean you pay for this place every month but you barely spend time there. Now you are actually getting the money out of your investment. I get it you want to paint and fix it up but you can’t. You want to start seeds … Continue reading →

My New Love – Audiobooks

I have never made it a secret I am a huge nerd, I love documentaries. I listen to documentaries when I paint, so a home improvement project. I then discovered Podcasts, I was listening to a Podcast (I believe it was Catch and Kill – Ronan Farrow mentioned he loved listening to Audiobooks faster than … Continue reading →

Happy Easter

I want to start by saying it doesn’t feel like Easter. I am used to an incredibly busy weekend trying to find brunch reservations for people who forgot it was Easter. This year it is me with my leg brace sitting on a heating pad, trying to figure out if I am actually going to … Continue reading →

What Day Is It?

I can honestly say, I have no idea. I have reached the point in this social isolation that I have no idea what day it is, when the last time I wore pants or jeans was, or when I last wore makeup (the last one I know March 20th). I find going to the mail … Continue reading →

Homemade Pizza Dough – No Yeast

One of the most surprising things to come out of this pandemic is how many people are apparently baking bread. I put yeast and flour on the grocery list because I wanted to teach the kids how to bake bread during this. The hubs came home empty handed, no flour or yeast to be found. … Continue reading →

“Vintage” LEGO Building

This was my brother’s favorite LEGO set. … Continue reading →

What!?!?!

I have been laid off from my job since March 20th. I know it wasn’t because of my performance or anything I did, it doesn’t make it any easier. I have been watching and reading far more local news in the process. Adjusting to this new normal has brought forth many questions such as are … Continue reading →

March the longest month ever…

The first two weeks of March flew by as they usually do. The last two weeks have been about 2,000 days long. I guess that is what happens when you have to stay in one place and are not supposed to go anywhere. People panic buying toilet paper, water, and every milk, chicken, eggs and … Continue reading →

Home Economics

I admit I don’t have the best record in Home Economics. My 7th grade year, I got a C because my classmates forgot to turn off the oven and almost caught the school on fire (I was home sick with strep – I happened to be on oven duty that week). My 8th grade year, … Continue reading →
