  • 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…

  • ReHash of No Hash

    In the last three weeks I have had some interesting conversations with a few different people about food and nutrition and food and disease. In the last 5 years I can say with assurance that at least 80% of the people I talk to who are looking for information about changing food habits are not…

    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.…

  • Ustrasana

    The other day I was doing camel pose as part of my morning routine and I had some thoughts I would like to share with you.

  • Let’s Talk about Talking

    I was thinking this morning about people who speak other languages fluently and perhaps English not as well. In my experience they always apologize for their less than perfect English even though they speak correctly, and frankly better than a lot of people who grew up with English as their first language. On the internet…
