Last week was a lot. A lot of things are going on (mostly fun ones), but it was also just A LOT. Stressful, in the way that life throws unexpected things at you. Fortunately, the main stressor will be taken care of on Monday, so I'll have a lot of background stress taken away from … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 23, 2023

Sunday Sum-Up: April 16, 2023
Have I mentioned how wonky the weather can get around here? Probably a few dozen times, but it can get pretty wonky. Like last week when it got up to 90F on Thursday, then we had a series of severe thunderstorms on Friday, and a day of rain, sleet, and a high of 45F on … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 16, 2023
Spring is Springing
I know flowers have been blooming and trees have been budding all over the US, but around here it's still quite brown except for a few flower patches, a couple of trees, and bits of grass. After positively wintry temperatures last week, we're expecting summery temperatures this week, so I'm sure we'll be seeing more … Continue reading Spring is Springing

There must be some rule that says medical offices and their waiting rooms will have temperatures that are either too warm or just too cold for comfort. I spent most of the morning of my day off in two of those offices- the dentist for a biannual check-up, and then at the clinic for some … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 9, 2023
March Summary, April Preview
The first three months of the year have flown by, as they are wont to do. I'm always a little ambivalent about the arrival of spring as I prefer fall and winter, but the appearance of green growing things and summer songbirds is always a plus, so I suppose it's a wash. If we could … Continue reading March Summary, April Preview

It's spring in Nebraska, so that means we've been having some interesting weather. Fortunately, we haven't had any tornadoes, but in my neck of the woods, it's meant 50-degree temperature swings in a single day and a nice windstorm that knocked my internet service offline (again). I'm not complaining about it, as March has given … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 2, 2023
Glad You’re Here
I went to see a landscape photography exhibition at the local art museum earlier this week, and that inspired me to go out afterward and take some photos. I didn't have a lot of time, so I only took a dozen or so but I ended up with one that I was quite happy with. … Continue reading Glad You’re Here
Listening to Things: Brokeback Mountain, original score by Gustavo Santaolalla
When last I checked in to talk about the Academy Award winners for Best Orignal Score, I made my feelings for the banality of the music for Finding Neverland known. I decided it was about as inspiring and as inoffensive as the music played at a shopping mall's food court. Well, guess what, Dear Readers? … Continue reading Listening to Things: Brokeback Mountain, original score by Gustavo Santaolalla
Sunday Sum-Up: March 26, 2023
So the 90s called, and they wanted me to rejoin them for a couple of days. And by that, I mean my internet connection was out for two days. I got home from work one night to find my modem blinking at me while my phone and computer declared that there was no network to … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 26, 2023
Sunday Sum-Up: March 19, 2023
I've been going through the various apps on my phone and unsubscribing to things like YouTube channels I don't watch anymore, leaving Discord servers that I thought would be fun but turned out to be annoying, or unfollowing Tumblr blogs I don't care for anymore. It's been nice to get rid of the baggage that … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 19, 2023
