The Possibilities Are Endless

The Possibilities Are Endless

And that’s part of the problem–on a lovely (because it exists, not because of the weather, which is HOT) weekend, the possibilities are endless–so they can wait. There are boundaries, of course, of time and money and weather (did I mention it’s HOT?) and the current pandemic–but within those boundaries, I still could never name […]

Monday Mornings Bite

Mondays are hard. I try not to be one of those people living for the weekend, but the fact is, the weekends are MY time. And I want my time. Even more since I was furloughed for six weeks in April and May, and rediscovered just how GLORIOUS a large amount of me-time can be.

Tired of Gardening

I mean, not that I really got far into it. But three of my four zucchini plants died, and the last one still hasn’t even put out a female flower that I can tell. My tomato plants are stumbling along, but I’ve only seen one flower from four plants. Caterpillars got my carrots, though a

It’s Wednesday

I’ve fallen into it lately, though. The just-waiting-for-the-weekend thing. Life is difficult right now (and I don’t even have most of the HUGE challenges facing so many, like trying to care for small children through this, or having to work in small spaces with idiots not taking this seriously, or being unemployed and facing eviction. God, this is a f*cking mess and it didn’t have to be anywhere near this bad!)
