My right hand has feeling in it again, after a long night of waking up with it numb. If you’ve never experienced this, you might think that having a limb go to sleep while you are asleep would not disrupt your sleep, right? I mean, that seems logical. Wearing my wrist brace helps a lot…

I’m so glad that it is Saturday. This work week was so busy, and the next one will be too. Lots of stress around me, and unfortunately I’m a sponge, not a duck. I dealt with it by singing Mahna Mahna all week, confusing the hell out of most people and getting responses from others.…

I’m all pleased with myself because I stayed up past 11:00 last night. Also because I was the one who suggested going downtown for First Friday. What does this mean? I must be getting over my physical and mental melaise of the last couple of months! I still slept over nine hours, but that’s okay.…

We are all thrilled here in central North Carolina because the weekend’s highs are supposed to be in the 50s-60s. I’m going to get out into the Back Forty this weekend, do some cleanup left over from last year, and prepare some beds for spring planting. I have heavy wire hoops in place over a…

This Saturday we woke up to snow on the ground. Again. Every frickin Friday for the past three weeks it’s been some kind of frozen weather. At least we don’t have three feet like our neighbors to the north. But everyone over the age of 12 seems to be pretty much sick of it around…

This time my place of work closed for the entire day and announced it before we all left for work. I woke up earlier than usual, though. Any other day I’d be lolling in bed, groaning about leaving my warm cocoon. We’re getting a slick coating of ice over this snow now. Bad winter weather…

Coffee pot posts are the posts where I write anything that comes to mind until my little coffee pot is empty. Today will be soup day, since I didn’t get around to that yesterday. I will be using the last of my onions and only one last clove of garlic. Why, oh why, did I…

I wonder if anybody in this country is happy with our government right now. It seems to me that the Republicans have the ethics of hyenas and the Democrats have the ethics of jellyfish. I have finally gotten so fed up with politics that I am finally doing what I have threatened to do for…

hai long time no see It’s not only that I haven’t had much to say. It is also that typing for more than a few words makes my hand ache, and so I’ve been saving it for work, since the spring semester, the semester in which I really earn my keep, begins on Tuesday. The…

Oh dear. I have ended up joining so many fascinating social media groups that my art work remains in my head, an unacceptable situation which I hope to remedy this weekend since it is too frickin cold to work outside and we have no plans. One good thing is that Sandino’s work schedule has changed…
