Why I’m not sure I can go back to Royal and Annie Smith Park
I emailed this to my husband, figuring he’d be the most likely to ‘get it.’ He didn’t bother to respond, which is kind of our marriage in a nutshell. We found out abruptly in June, 2022, that our last dog, Andy, had an advanced case of an aggressive cancer. We gave him one last day […]
These days
I’m not sure when I gave up on not just dissolving into tears at random moments, but it’s been a little while now. Can’t say for sure what exactly was the tipping point—was it our elderly pets having crises in quick succession? (Things aren’t looking good for Rocky, our other orange tabby cat. That’s three […]
What hope?
My friend Carita and I got together a while back, and our conversation turned to politics (our beliefs and positions are similar). Our second biggest concern was that there is an enormous divide between those who believe he’s telling the truth, and those who don’t. Courteous, reasonable discussions can’t even begin under these conditions, and, alarmingly, there […]
Stick a fork in me
These are the facts: For twelve years, we had a king-size Select Comfort/Sleep Number bed that was pretty tall. We have dogs who like to sleep with us (and we like it, too), so we put an upholstered bench at the foot of the bed, with a set of doggy stairs up to the bench, […]
Development camp scrimmage

I think Eriksson was, too, though there was another player I kept getting him confused with. I believe Mascherin was white […]
What to do with these?
I’m finally starting to organize the metric ton of stuff we brought back from Denver when we shut down housekeeping for Rich’s parents. When I say starting, I mean I took the stack of cookbooks that belonged to my mother-in-law and her mother, and started going through them. I really don’t know what to do with […]
Bad drivers, the universe and me
I decided a little while back that I’ve been spending WAY too much time mad at other drivers. There are a lot of them out there, and—sadly—it doesn’t actually seem to affect them when I shriek obscenities at them. (There’s a chance they might not even notice!) What it does do is raise my blood […]
Anybody know anything about these?
Like a designer/manufacturer/brand/some identifying name, where they may have come from, anything?
