So my dear Mr. Ken is the quintessential car guy. Last week, he had a bad cold. (And yes it really was a cold and not COVID; he did lots of COVID tests – all negative.) Last week was his birthday and on his birthday it was raining. Most people would take “their” special day […]

I am slowly starting to emerge from COVID isolation/hibernation. My friend Lisa and I had a really fun experience a few weeks ago. We went to a tea tasting at the Golden Ball Tavern, a cool historic place in Weston, Massachusetts. From the Golden Ball Tavern website: “The Golden Ball Tavern Museum offers visitors a […]

So I live in New England and even with the infamous “global warming,” it is cold and snowy. It can get depressing to be stuck inside for months on end. Mr. Ken and I enjoy hiking all year long. A few days ago, we decided to emerge from “hibernation” and go for a hike at […]

So not much going on here. Mr. Ken hasn’t done anything goofy lately, so I can’t even write about his antics. A few days ago, Mr. Ken announces that he needs to put on his work clothes. No, this isn’t a suit and tie, but old pants and an old shirt. He rushes upstairs and changes his clothes. […]

We are in February and the days are noticeably brighter. I just love sitting in our family room in the afternoon as the sun comes streaming through the windows. It is the perfect place for reading. I also love having lots of pretty flowers around. Flowers in the dead of winter are especially nice. My mother-in-law and a few […]
