Standing Up

A number of years ago, I had a friend in my life who was very important to me. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to make a major life decision. It wasn’t a decision I wanted to make, but it really was my only option, due to what had happened to me. Because …

A Gentler Approach

With all of the racial upheaval in the world, it has come to my attention that I actually know people who are racists. Can I tell you how much this breaks my heart? I want to shake them. I want to point out that their reasons for being racists are insane. I want to beg …

To Post or Not To Post

I was going to apologize for not posting yesterday, but honestly – I just didn’t have it in me. Remember how I told you that you need to be gentle with yourself? That was me following my own advice. So, I’m not going to apologize. I’m going to let it be an example – don’t …

Garbage Truck

Dear Reader – you know that I love all things Prince Ea, right? I watched this one yesterday and I wanted to share it with you. In case you didn’t watch it, it compares an angry person to a garbage collector. That person has picked up that bag of garbage somewhere, and they need someplace …

What Does it Look Like?

Packages

*Did you miss yesterday’s post? I posted it very late. Sorry.* Are you ordering more stuff online since Covid started? I am for a few reasons. Obviously, there’s the safety factor. Anytime I can not go out, I opt for that. I am doing my best to protect my mom from the virus, so I …

A Little Empathy

I had heard people saying stuff about crying over a McMuffin, but I didn’t know what it was all about. Today, I happened upon the video. In case you haven’t seen it, here it is: Basically, it’s a woman crying because she had to wait for her McMuffin. I know – on the surface, it …

Cheaper Ways

I’ve mentioned my garden a few times. What I haven’t mentioned is that I’m cheap frugal. Gardening isn’t cheap, and I’m trying to save money where ever possible. If someone has additional money-saving tricks, I’d love to know them! I previously told you about our container gardening. We got some buckets for free from bakeries, …

200,000 Dead

I recently heard a report which said that we are likely to have 200,000 Americans dead by September from the Corona virus. And people are okay with that. I mean, they must be okay with it because they’re abandoning their masks and getting together with their friends. Just the other day, my neighbor had a …
