Perhaps it was the eclipse. Perhaps it's just me. Thoughts of the weird circled about this week. I've never seen Game of Thrones. Thoughts are stirred when a dear friend returns from Scotland to show pics where they actually film and their historical importance. Over the next couple of days, I suffer FOMO, a rarity,… Continue reading And So This Week…

Total Eclipse of The Street Lights…
Arizona was not expected to put on a big show during yesterday's eclipse. And it didn't. I stood in a parking lot with friends taking turns trading glasses to catch a peek of the moon's pass in front of the sun. Perhaps because we spend the summer months living on the fiery orb's surface, we… Continue reading Total Eclipse of The Street Lights…
Father, Son, Holy Spirit, Roll Tide…
Isn't it the best when you meet someone and love them despite their football team preference? I've "known" Minxy Boy for five years though we've never met in person. So entrenched is he in Middle Chicken's life, he's on the list of non biological chickens. They met the first day of law school. Their adventures… Continue reading Father, Son, Holy Spirit, Roll Tide…
We’ve Heard Everything Now…
From the Now I've Heard Everything File... Friday night a family was peed on at a Metallica concert. Happened right here in Arizona. Not in The Dale, goodness no, but in the state and that is embarrassing enough. Thank Sweet Baby Jesus the guy is from New Mexico and we don't have to claim him… Continue reading We’ve Heard Everything Now…
Put Your Yellow Pants On…
I get an email out of the blue. A friend tells a new friend she has to meet me. It's the new friend who makes the reach out. So and so says we need to meet. She notes what we have in common: nonprofit work, cancer and at the bottom she throws out, "I'm from… Continue reading Put Your Yellow Pants On…
Is Everything Millennials’ Fault?…
The Today Show lines up a bunch of millennials and fires questions at them. They must raise their hands at various offenses. It's trendy to blame a plethora of "kills" on the specific age group. Everything from golf to bar soap to vacations to wine are being declared dead; murdered by those born between the… Continue reading Is Everything Millennials’ Fault?…
The Great Butter Debate…
I went to a friend's house once and she had cheese in a cabinet. Not a block of Velveeta--cheese; like a hunk of cheddar you buy at Safeway. Not fancy cheese from a monger, who might advise you to keep it on the counter as it's so damn yummy, it'll be gone in two days.… Continue reading The Great Butter Debate…
Will The Exercise Never Stop?…
Will the exercise never stop? God knows I want to tone up but is it necessary exercise slap me across the face at every turn? Bright and early Sunday morning, a client makes a Tai chi presentation. She's speaking on wellness and self health. My mission is twofold: client support and to see said client… Continue reading Will The Exercise Never Stop?…
Yoga With Open-Toed Shoes…
Healthy lifestyle circles me like Australian sharks. Since I choose exercise as often as I would choose diving with sharp toothed sea creatures, this can be an irritant. With every move, or non move, I am reminded to eat right, exercise, breathe deeply, and tend to mind, body, spirit connection. I'd like to say cancer… Continue reading Yoga With Open-Toed Shoes…
Do You Have A Spare?…
Baby Chicken got a flat tire. It's tough when chickens are scattered about; especially when it's you who encouraged their flight. Like when you realize you never taught your daughter to change a tire. Because why? Calling AAA fits under the feminist umbrella, non? Until we realize we bought her a car but left her… Continue reading Do You Have A Spare?…
