I wanted to do a short check-in after four insane months. Wow! April has been an insane month. Lord, the medical drama does not let up. The quicker this nutty year is in the rearview mirror, the better for my mental well-being. When I last posted, I told you about my pyoderma diagnosis. I am…

Do you know the way to San Jose?
Last week, we returned to the Bay area to celebrate several family milestones. It was a belated 80th for Nana, the 21st birthday of our niece, a graduation for another niece, my sister’s 50th, and our 25th wedding anniversary. It had been quite a while since we’ve been back. The place is looking very tired…
Don’t let the sun go down on me.
Lovie has been waiting for the eclipse for two years. He made our travel plans long in advance. There was a viewing path running diagonally across the country. The places in that band were supposed to be the best places to view the eclipse. Lovie chose Fort Worth as a place that would be a…
Water and Wallpaper do not mix well.
In the grand scheme of things, what happened is not earth-shattering, but it was a big disappointment for me. I had spent over a year planning what to do with the two guestrooms in my house. I purchased two euro shams for one of the guest rooms and ordered wallpaper samples, which I displayed for…
Visitor Palooza
My nieces from California visited us this past weekend in Idaho, and the weather was glorious. The temperature was 15 degrees warmer than usual. We enjoyed sitting outside until 9 pm one night. Our first niece, Wu, and her boyfriend, J, arrived on Friday evening, marking a wonderful reunion after nearly two years. The following…
Hooray for the red, white and blue.
It is always weird when I read my old blogs. Sometimes I appear to be very passionate about some things. The amusing thing is that presently I might not feel as committed to certain things in my blog. I find it amusing. Let me start by saying that the weather has been insane. We are…
2020 in the rear mirror and the same crap ahead but….Idaho
Yup! You read correctly. Idaho. So here we are at the end of January 2021. I cannot believe that I have not written since September. So many changes . Some good and some bad. The world is still topsy turvy with Covid. Will it ever go away. They have developed vaccines and they are slowly…
Butterflies prevent madness….they really do.
Wow, I am never in the mood to update the blog. Not sure how much I will write tonight. We have just reached the 6 month anniversary of the lockdown for the pandemic with no end in sight. I think we have moved onto a phases where I think we now have to accept that…
Just STFU and wear a mask already.
Many weeks of hell for the whole world have passed since I posted on about the 11th day of lockdown. It is now July 24th, 2020 and things are really bad. An American is dying every eight minutes and we have dingbats that are insisting on making this political. They are insisting that the masks…
