Last week, I asked you to ask me questions, and ask you did! Thank you so much – this was really fun! Here we go! Books and Reading Ally asked: My question is: given your druthers, which book genre is your favorite? And why? I will put this question together with one of Suzanne’s, which […]
Who Moved My…Clothes; Seventy-Four Weeks In
August 16, 2021 by
Every evening I choose a yoga/ workout outfit, complete with hairband and scrunchie, and I set those things in the bathroom; that way, when I wake up early I just slip into my clothes and I’m ready for my yoga practice and workout, without having to disturb anyone. I have been doing this essentially every […]
Bits and Bobs; Seventy Three Weeks In

Bo Duke Channels Elvis On the long drive home from vacation, I learned that John Schneider – of Dukes of Hazzard fame – had a hit song in the 70s, covering Elvis’ It’s Now or Never. Not only that, but he had a fairly successful career as a country singer AND co-founded the Children’s Miracle […]

My Own Mask Mandate; Sixty-Nine Weeks In
July 12, 2021 by
The mask mandate in our city was officially dropped this week; when I went to the grocery store on Wednesday I counted six maskless faces. I will say I find it strange and startling to see actual faces indoors, which goes to show how quickly people adapt to their circumstances. After all, a year ago […]
Refreshed and Rejuvenated; Sixty-Eight Weeks In
July 5, 2021 by
Thank you all so much for weighing in on last week’s question! I am cautiously optimistic and hopeful, and also clinging to my mask collection. I did take advantage of the Big Reopening in one way, and that was to visit my parents for four nights. It’s interesting; I am a person who thrives on […]
