    Influenced

    “Who was your most influential teacher? Why?” I’ve had a few teachers in my days that were very impactful to me. My eighth grade algebra teacher. My college art teacher. My kindergarten teacher. My organic chemistry teacher. The kids I played hacky-sack with in college. Rock climbing and running. My first nursing instructor. My last…

  • Tatts

    Tatts

    “What tattoo do you want and where would you put it?” None! No tattoos is the new tattoo. On second thought, I’d get matching ones with my kids if we ever get around to it and they still want to! πŸ˜€ Don’t get me wrong, I think they look cool when there’s a whole lot…

  • Curious

    Curious

    “What is one word that describes you?” I’m a curious kind of person. I’ve been that way as long as I can remember. The other day (Sunday to be specific) I decided to get some type of beef roast. I wanted to try our new crockpot that I had gotten for Christmas since my old…

    Strategic Sundays or… How I Use Baking and Heavy Metal to Cope With Negative Feelings (Like the Sunday Scaries)

    I’m a big metal fan. Wait, not that kind of fan. πŸ˜› The other kind. The kind that loves spending a Saturday night in a small venue with the drums and guitar so loud I can feel it in my soul. (Yes, I wear earplugs). Recently I got to see Rivers of Nihil– and WOW.…

  • Lost… And Getting the Essentials

    Lost… And Getting the Essentials

    “What activities do you lose yourself in?” I admit it, I’m a serial hobbyist, particularly in the journal-y, bookish, paper craft kinda way. Have you heard of journal ecosystems? Yeah. That’s me. I have journals about my journals! Okay, maybe it’s not that bad. But I’m getting there. There’s my main journal, the craft-y/junk journal,…

  • Kinda Stitious or, What I’ve Learned Working in Healthcare

    Kinda Stitious or, What I’ve Learned Working in Healthcare

    “Are you superstitious?” You may have heard of those superstitious sayings like: Don’t walk under a ladder (common sense to me), if a black cat crosses your path it’s bad luck (I mean I like cats), see a penny let it lay, you’ll have bad luck all that day (also you won’t have the penny),…

  • Adult Learner

    Adult Learner

    “What is the last thing you learned?” I am always learning something new. Three lessons come to mind from this past week: There’s life lessons. This week I learned that Target’s gummi bears are not bad except for the very pale ones which taste exactly like soap, which is unsettling. I don’t think I’ve ever…

  • Inquiry

    Inquiry

    “What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.” “Are you married?” “No. No I’m not. Thanks for asking, though! And for reminding me of my divorce!!” Actually my usual response is- “No. Thank God.” LOL I just don’t know if I’ll ever understand why people ask this so often. I feel like I…

  • First Sentences

    First Sentences

    “You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?” Once again, I did not make it to the gym that day. Okay, maybe that wouldn’t be my opening sentence. But it would sum up this year quite nicely. And in my defense, today I am running on very little sleep, had an early morning work meeting,…

  • Three Things…

    Three Things…

    “What are three objects you couldn’t live without?” The things I could not live without: My coffeepot. It’s a Cuisinart. White. You can set it to brew at whatever time you program into it. Currently, it is loaded for tomorrow because I need it to start at 545 am. Haven’t gotten into the keurigs. Have…
