As you can tell from my lovely demeanor last week I am not someone who always plays well with others. But my knees are feeling stable today, although last week I was benched AGAIN after my grand ONE night return to tango lessons. Yes, I know, weights. . .
Anyway, I’m feeling more human today, shot some new photos for [...]

If you’re looking fo a cute, sweet, happy Etsy thought, it isn’t here, not today. Just hit another button and move on. Today, dear readers, all two of you, is all about manners, boundaries and how I hate people who don’t have the common courtesy to use them. These are things I hate:
1. Smokers. If [...]

Have you ever done something you new was going to get you in trouble? Not law-abiding trouble or physical-harm trouble, but emotional trouble? (I’m sure the answer is yes; you’re human, it’s our nature–but if it’s no, call me, we’ll do lunch; I’ll take notes.) I’m not sure why, but it seems I’m going there again.)

Do you ever get into the middle of a project and find yourself not certain about what you are even doing?
I’ve been working/creating an odd assortment of “art” lately, not to even get into the mental stuff I’m toying around with (my mind looks like my garage–cob webs, art projects, boxes, storage; it needs sweeping, [...]

Last week we had a neighborhood wide yard sale. Apparently, it was huge and went well. I never got out to see, as I was stuck manning my own yard. I did okay, cleaned out the garage some, the book shelves (always hard to let go), clothes (also difficult–what if I want to wear that [...]

It is early evening and the neighbors are drunk and arguing so I have cranked up Michael Hedges, Aerial Boundaries. I can’t believe I almost sold this at my yard sale. I had two albums and a woman wanted to buy something instrumental for her son. I said, “he will love these. MIchael Hedges was [...]

I can’t tell you how cool it is to get a package in the mail, sent [...]
