Puzzling Today, I got out a 500 piece puzzle for something to do with my parents. Thankfully, I brought it with us on our trip to see them, as I planned our trip. My husband and I ended up starting it. Frankly, I needed a distraction. My focus needed to change from vaccinations, and COVID…
I am with my elderly parents. They are old enough to be next in line to get the COVID vaccine. But, the receipt of important information is not coming easily. The turn to technological dissemination of essential health information has left our seniors behind. Portals, apps, and cell phones have replaced the way many of…

I’d like to challenge you to sit and really think about my post today. We are ten months into a global pandemic. How has it changed your life? How has your life stayed the same? What do you miss? What do you now know you can do without? To get you started, I’ll share some…
Sunday morning I missed a golden opportunity to take some really awesome photos of winter in the Coulee Region – where I live in Wisconsin. The conditions, over night – from Saturday into Sunday – were ripe for the development of both hoarfrost and rime ice. What? You say? What are those?! Even as an…
When my husband and I were on the keto diet, I posted updates on our Keto Journey on Mondays. Now, we are far past the time on the actual diet and are maintaining our respective goal weights (173# and 125#). These are our weights now, a week past the holiday (eating) season. Personally, I am…
