Little things become big ones during the Pandemic
My attitudes sure have changed in the 5 months since the shutdown due to the Pandemic began. How many things have we all taken for granted, that now are either no longer in existence or have become big deals? Take hair cuts for instance. Now, I know in the grand scheme of things, getting one’s […]
What happens when you are stuck at home for months on end
July 29, 2020
Two words – online shopping. So normally, I am pretty disciplined when it comes to my online purchases. Well, except for exercise DVDs, but these don’t count since I consider them a necessity, up there with food and drink. 1. Feng Shui and Crystals. Feng shui, for the uninitiated, is an ancient Chinese practice of […]
A little rant
July 22, 2020
So this is rather tongue in cheek, but here goes. So my excitement last week was planning a trip to Ocean State Job Lot. Believe it or not, they have the best prices on Bob’s Red Mill Oat Bran. Yes, my local Whole Foods carries this, but it is $3.00 more per bag! It’s the […]
Gratitude
July 15, 2020
All the news is depressing, let’s face it. While one can’t crawl into a cave and be immune from all that is going on the world, there has got to be a better way. I think I’ve found it. I try to get out and walk everyday. I try to take in my surroundings and […]
God Bless America!
July 8, 2020
It is so sad and disheartening to read the news these days. America is being torn apart and sometimes I feel powerless to do anything about it. And yet, I believe that we will survive and somehow pull together as a nation. The 4th of July is a bittersweet time for me since my Dad […]
Road trip!
July 1, 2020
So Mr. Ken and I decided to venture out to Rhode Island last week. I have a cousin who recently moved there and we are very close. We felt comfortable going to visit him because he has been staying at home, leaving home only to go for walks and to the grocery store. Since this […]
Summer is here – yay!
June 24, 2020
The lazy days of summer are upon us. I got to thinking about the summer and how I love it. I am ever more appreciative this year because of everything that is going on. Here’s why I love summer: 1. Many hours of daylight. I am a morning person and I love to exercise in […]
Looking forward to the dentist – say what??????
June 17, 2020
These sure are strange and interesting times. No wonder I am exhausted all the time. I do an extensive benefit/risk analysis before I ever leave the house. Is the benefit I may get more than the risk of catching COVID? I do this even before I take my walks. I had a teeth cleaning appointment […]
Donut days
June 10, 2020
So our dear Mr. Ken managed to really hurt his shoulder, so we have to take a rest from kayaking for a while. We are both bummed since when we are out on the water, life seems almost normal. But, better to be safe than sorry. Since we are still sheltering at home, there is […]
COVID surprises

Comments Off on COVID surprises
Ack, I probably shouldn’t use the word “Covid” and the word “surprise” in the same sentence. Enough with the Covid already! I don’t know about you all, but since I have sheltering in place, I’ve had a lot of time to think. As I was reflecting this weekend, I realized that I have been surprised […]
