I have been doing some cleaning in my office. Purging really. It has been time consuming because it is mostly paper stuff and I want to read most things to determine their value. I would say ninety percent is getting recycled. The rest is either being scanned to put in my One Note in a…
About a month ago I was cleaning up my back patio. Next thing I know, these little things were sticking me with needles. I finally realized it was wasps. I have never been stung before and it was quite the experience. The thing is they were relentless. Apparently, they do not lose their stinger, so…

One of my all time favourite songs is Soak Up the Sun by Sheryl Crow. I was listening to it the other day (it’s on my Up Song playlist). At the time, one line stood out for me: “I don’t like diddly squat”. I immediately thought I need to make an art quote for it….
A Quick Review, Sort Of I have been reading Under the Dome by Stephen King (Amazon.com / Amazon.ca) for about five months. Maybe longer. In general, I tend to be a slow reader but not usually this slow. I finished reading the book! It is a huge weight off my shoulders. And my wrists. Seriously,…

The only waterproof shoes I have are Sloggers ankle boots. Sexy huh? I was sent a free pair of black Loom Footwear Waterproof Sneakers for review on BigGirlBlue.com. The Loom Footwear website’s main tagline is “we provide high quality waterproof sneakers designed for outdoor activities”. Over the last few weeks I have worn them about…
