I’ve been letting this blog collect dust for too long now, but life just has a habit of getting in the way of what I want to do with a whole list of things that I have to do. Unfortunately, writing a blog post is one of those things that somehow gets put way downContinue reading “I’ve Got A Bulb Out, And One Is Flickering”

Cemeteries Are For The Living
In the years before my father died, my brother and I would often ask him what he wanted us to do when his time came, and he would usually answer the same way, “Have me cremated, put me in a shoe box and stick me up on a shelf in the closet.” Although, one time,Continue reading “Cemeteries Are For The Living”

Still Got Some Songs In The Walls
It’s been quite awhile since I have been over to the Renwick House to get any real work done over there, and even longer since I have written a blog post, so as I am sitting here this morning, waiting for my tea to steep and provide me with the kick in the arse IContinue reading “Still Got Some Songs In The Walls”

I’ve always been a jump feet first into the water and figure out how to swim later type of person, so it comes as no surprise to my husband at all when I text him the news of my latest Lucy Ricardo type adventure. This past year however, I think I outdid myself when IContinue reading “Cut The Stick”
