MIA from the Blogosphere
https://pixabay.com/vectors/milk-carton-milk-missing-31473/ I always used to scratch my head wondering why people went MIA from the blogosphere. I couldn't imagine it ever happening to me! And yet, here I am. (Or, here I wasn't!) Only 18 posts last year and this is only my 6th for 2022. So, what happened? It really isn't that I have … Continue reading MIA from the Blogosphere
Back in My Happy Place
After an especially intense period at work, we finally made our annual trek to the beach in Osoyoos, BC. Same beach, same hotel, same unit. Boring? Well, my older son thinks so and doesn't come anymore, but the rest of us find the sameness relaxing. Both my husband and I still had to do a … Continue reading Back in My Happy Place
New Messaging to Colleagues

Happy Easter!

He was a survivor, of heart issues, bladder stones, cancer, and a scary breathing episode. When we first welcomed our Japanese Chin, Koko, into our … Continue reading Night-Night Mr. Koko
Technical Difficulties
I wrote and published a post today, but it doesn't seem to show in WordPress Reader (at least for me) and, so far, I have not heard back from WordPress Support. Trying again with this post and linking back to my RA Birthday post. Hope it works!
The Jacket… Or, Our Guy’s Adventures in Lockdown
Sigh. Watched all the binge-worthy programs on Netflix. Surely, there must be something I haven't seen! Hmm. What about this? "Tidying up, with Marie Kondo"? Mum tried to convince me to keep up with the tidying... never stuck, though. Look at this place! What a tip! What would Mum think? Maybe I do need this … Continue reading The Jacket… Or, Our Guy’s Adventures in Lockdown
