gracing cyberspace since 1998
After a week of summer-like weather, Saturday morning was nice and cool. My cousins came out to pick some cherries and we met them at one of the ranches. We have lived out this way for over a decade but we’ve never gone cherry picking. It was a little chilly to start but it warmed…
Why does it feel like spring doesn’t last as long as it should out this way? I would love two weeks straight of temperatures in the 70s. Is that too much to ask? Apparently it is because these days are in the 80s or even warmer. Alas! The work week after my birthday was only…
And just like that, it’s now spring! It’s been a bit chilly in the mornings but the afternoons are warming up and it looks like it’ll be getting warmer in the coming days. I still don’t know if I’m ready for it. Alas. The Cuddle Puddle Nation had another Zoom chat this past weekend. How…

Our schools are on spring break, something that…
I can’t believe January 2020 has already come to an end. Now begins my busiest month of the year at work. Transfers and transfers and more transfers! I’ll have to say the same thing every day at least ten times a day if not more. Oh, and I must not sound as if it’s the…
It was the first week after winter break and lo, it felt like the longest week EVER. For some reason, the cold I thought I’d beaten during break came back to spend time with me as the routine of work once more began. Thankfully it was more annoying than anything. Oh, and I could still…
