  • Tithe or ………

    I may have talked about this years ago but it came up again so I will talk again. I was poor, hard scrabble, rolling pennies, going without kind of poor, for a long time. I’m not good at poor, but we did what we had to do. My kids didn’t go hungry but they sure…

  • Project 1619

    Have you heard of this? https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/08/14/magazine/1619-america-slavery.html I just looked it up and thinks it is interesting. I have not spent much time researching but it did spark a train of thought. What would America look like if that first ship having docked was turned away and told NO, of course we do not want to…

  • Just touching base with myself

    Just a little whining. My sleep pattern is just driving me over the edge. I go to sleep at my normal bedtime and I am lucky because I have always fallen asleep really quickly. Then 2am rolls around and I wake up. From 2 to 5 am I sleep in 30 minute increments. So I…

  • Ambivalent

    I started watching Polyamory on Showtime this morning and only made it to episode 3. I seem to have a 3 episode line for things to catch my attention. I just found it incredibly boring. I have no problem with people practicing polyamory in any of it’s forms. I know a couple of years ago…

  • Blocking Imminent

    I feel like I am one more comment away from turning into a screaming banshee harridan who is forever banned from any social media. I am going to try and word this carefully so that a minimum of people will be offended. If I hear the word “triggered” one more time I am going to…

  • $#!%!@!!!!

    Something made me angry right before I went to bed. It was just a small online interaction but it touched on something that has been bothering me about the world. Then I woke up after a restless night and a dream of chaos. Just 100 things all happening at once to interfere with taking care…

  • 01 01 2020

    I do love the symmetry of the date today. 2019 was a difficult year for me. I feel kind of old and worn out. I’ve been suffering from the crazy fatigue that comes with Kadcyla and my body is having all sorts of mechanical issues. I was working on figuring out all my WordPress accounts…

  • Muses, meeces, mices

    I am not always the nicest person. I am not always (ever) the most sympathetic or caring person. Sometimes I am selfish. I put myself first frequently. I am entirely too sarcastic and when I get uncomfortable I sometimes say hurtful things unintentionally with the actual intended result being laughter. When I am speaking to…

  • Writing / Speaking / Owning my Truth

    “We both have Truths, are mine the same as yours?”* A popular phrase in the last years has been “Speaking your truth”. In my house this usually elicits a loud vocal response from my husband. Something along the line of “truth is truth, you can’t have your own truth”. Last night watching, or reading something…

  • Irritants Online

    Everything is irritating me this last week. I search a lot of recipes. Mostly just for fun, occasionally I’ll twist them until three are unrecognizable and make them. What I never do is watch them on video. Stop with the YouTube Recipes! Write the damn thing down! If you have a food and or nutrition…
