Cool weather is upon us

November 16, 2016

Sadly, it was time to put our kayaks away. We had a bit of a conundrum this year, since we now have to store four kayaks where we used to store only two. The other two had been kept over at my Mom’s house in her garage. But leave it to Mr. Ken to come […]

Find your creative side

November 9, 2016

I’m more of an analytical person, so finding my creative side takes a lot of doing. So far, the only creative thing I’ve been able to do is to put together interesting exercise routines. This pretty stained glass is from my dear husband, Mr. Ken. He recently took a stained glass class from our local […]

The power of a phone call

As I have gotten older, I have come to really appreciate the simple things in life. Like the power of a nice phone call. October has been a tough month for me, it is the month of my Mother’s birthday and also my birthday. I have been feeling a bit melancholy. October is a busy […]

More fall colors

It has been a busy week with my consulting project, so this will be a short and sweet post. Fall is my favorite time of year. It is so pretty just walking around my town and seeing all the fall colors. I am particularly struck by the bright red leaves of the flame bush. Since […]

Colors of a fall hike

Mr. Ken and I decided to take advantage of this glorious fall weather and went for a hike last Sunday. We hiked around the lake where we usually kayak. It didn’t hurt that our trip to the hiking place goes right by a Dairy Queen. 🙂 The colors were glorious. The sun was shining; life […]

A visitor to our new front steps

Since I started a new consulting project, I haven’t had much time to think about blogging. We just had our front side steps redone and they look great. And, more importantly, one of our “pet” chipmunks, named Peep, has given them his stamp of approval. Note the little white object in the lower right corner […]

Another day in Cambridge

My consulting project started up this week, so I have been very busy. Here’s a view from the Longfellow Bridge, which runs from Kendall Square in Cambridge to Boston. It is also known as the “salt and pepper” bridge since the structures look like salt and pepper shakers. The picture I took was very dark, […]

Mystery object revealed

My first attempt at taking a picture of the “real” object. Can we say, “oops?” I guess I will never make a living as a photographer. Here it is. You may still not know what it is, so I shall tell you. It’s a little barre ball. A what???? It’s a small ball that can […]

What do you think?  A word to some of my friends  (and you know who you are) – you will know immediately what this is.

Healthy herb adventures

I suffer from periodic bouts of gastritis. And as much as I like natural stuff, I’m all for taking a pill to make things better. Except, as with most medicines, the cure can kill you as much as the ailment. So I have been on a quest to find a more natural way to heal. […]
