Never, never, never give up. ~ Winston Churchill This is the first full week of June and yet this month seems almost over. Perhaps that's because I've adjusted to working from home and my ability to actually complete my to do list! It's fantastic being able to do some cooking while keeping up on my…Read more Working from Home: Week 15

A Better Tomorrow
"They may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!" ~ Braveheart Action movies are great in every culture. A Better Tomorrow is an outstanding Hong Kong action film. While it may seem like a hooky 80's action flick, it's number two on the 100 Best Chinese Motion Pictures. This movie may have boxy…Read more A Better Tomorrow
Working from Home: Week 14
Do not let spacious plans for a new world divert your energies from saving what is left of the old. ~ Winston Churchill Wow, what a week! Some places now have curfews this week to discourage rioting and looters. I fully support peaceful protests, but violence is not the answer. Our stay at home orders…Read more Working from Home: Week 14
Working from Home: Week 13
Not all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path. Another week has passed. About one third of this state has been able to move onto Phase 2 of our safe start plan. Where we live is still in the shelter in place phase. It is definitely hard to see parts…Read more Working from Home: Week 13
Working from Home: Week 12
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. ~ Winston Churchill When I started using this title and updating the number, I really thought it was a boring title for a blog post. What's going to attract readers attention? Nothing! Now, it's the only way I can…Read more Working from Home: Week 12

One always measures friendships by how they show in bad weather. ~ Winston Churchill Another week has passed. We are still in shelter in place or stay home, stay healthy.

Life is a challenge, we must take it. ~ Mother Teresa Another week has gone by. We're still working from home and social distancing and wearing masks and gloves and quarantining items as needed.

Working from Home: Week 9
The only impossible journey is the one you never begin. ~ Tony Robbins Another week has passed. I'm amazed at how long the days feel. Sure, it helps the days are light longer now here in the PNW as we move to the summer equinox. We are still in shelter in place until May 4.…Read more Working from Home: Week 9
Working From Home: Week 8
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life. ~ Winston Churchill It's been eight weeks since I started working from home. When this started, I didn't foresee it lasting this long. I'm not sure why. I had no scientific data. I also had no frame of reference to…Read more Working From Home: Week 8
Still Working From Home
Those who endure, conquer. It's another week of working from home. Week seven to be exact. I'm starting to think that this commuting thing was an illusion. Did I really spend hours of my life sitting in traffic? We're still sheltering in place and will be until at least May 4 for now. We're still…Read more Still Working From Home
