  • Just B*tching

    I start feeling my age when I am exposed to women who use the word Bitch as a fun friendly term. I went looking for how this became a thing and ran across this article I have actually spent some time thinking about this over the years because it bothers me every single time and…

  • Just Breathe

    My pulmonologist prescribed symbicort two times a day and albuterol four times a day. Both of these are inhalers and each dose is two puffs. So 12 puffs a day. I went to my new PC a couple of weeks ago and he asked me about it. I explained that I do not really use…

    In the last three weeks I have had some interesting conversations with a few different people about food and nutrition and food and disease.

  • Fatigue, Food & Blood

    I have been talking to this page in my head since last Wednesday but have not typed it out. Then the other day someone posted on their FB on the subject I wanted to talk about and I started feeling silly about talking about my problem after they talked about their similar problem because theirs…

  • Despite my best intentions

    I try to find products at stores near me before I hit up amazon. You know, trying to keep the home folks employed. I have been looking at new towel racks for the bathroom. I had a very specific set of features. I want a shelf, a want a hook or two and I want…

  • Value Add

    I have been lucky enough to get paid for quite a few crochet pieces. Sometimes a lot, sometimes just enough to cover yarn. I have definitely given away more than I have sold. I joke that the selling allows me to buy more yarn to cover the give-always. I rarely charge for time, just materials.…
