Be selective with your battles; sometimes peace is better than being right. Wow, what a week it has been. I'm still mostly working from home. Right now that means, one day a week I'm in the office to do all the items I can't do from home. I've been a bit tired/headache from the first…Read more Working From Home: Week 54

Getting Vaccinated: The First Dose
Science is magic that works. ~ Kurt Vonnegut This past week there was a federal mandate that all preschool through grade 12 educational employees qualify for COVID-19 vaccines. Within 12 hours of this mandate, my insurance provider had their online services updated, and I qualified for an e-ticket. I was then able to schedule an…Read more Getting Vaccinated: The First Dose
Kong Double Feature
I wish I had left Kong alone on the island. We continued our Kong movie marathon last Friday with the next two Kong movies. The British Hubby and I both thought we had not seen all the King Kong movies, but the first three Kong movies so far have been reruns for us. The Son…Read more Kong Double Feature
Craftvent: Day 16
Too much of a good thing can be wonderful. ~ Mae West Have you been wondering what's happening with my craftvent scarves? Each day is taking longer and longer to post about. I will admit as Spring approaches, it's hard to keep up steam on my winter scarves. Maybe that's the real reason crafters have…Read more Craftvent: Day 16
Celebrating Life: Grilling
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you planet. ~ Robert Louis Stevenson We're starting to see Spring like weather emerge here in the PNW. That means the 10 day forecast isn't reliable. Sometimes even the 2 day forecast is wrong. You learn to dress in layers and…Read more Celebrating Life: Grilling
Working From Home: Weeks 52 and 53
The one who falls and gets back up is so much stronger than one who never falls. It's been another two weeks. The British Hubby is still sole working from home. I'm mostly working from home. These two weeks have felt a bit like an eternity. Could be because we hit the year mark on…Read more Working From Home: Weeks 52 and 53
One Year Ago
Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them. ~ Dalai Lama On March 2, 2020, I packed up my work items for what I thought would be a few weeks at home. I was sort of excited about the thought of getting…Read more One Year Ago
Beauty Killed the Beast
Kong the eighth wonder of the world! This week we took a hiatus from our Bond marathon to change gears for a bit. In preparation for Godzilla vs. Kong in March, we're watching all the King Kong movies. The original King Kong movie was made in 1933. It started with a five minute overture. The…Read more Beauty Killed the Beast
Celebrating Life: Let it Bee
Sometimes you have to forget what's gone, appreciate what still remains, and look forward to what's coming next. It's the last week in February. It's been cold and dark. My body is tired. It's gearing up for Spring allergy season. On Wednesday, I felt like Friday would never get here, but it did! Typically, I…Read more Celebrating Life: Let it Bee
Craftvent Day 15
Strive not to be of success, but rather to be of value. ~ Albert Einstein In theory, surprise days should give me a chance to catch up. Yet, I still only seem to get out one craftvent email a week. It looks like my last Craftvent post was 11 days ago, eek! Either the knitting…Read more Craftvent Day 15
