First off: I know that voicemail is an archaic technology and that all the cool kids are using the snazzy new messaging apps (whatever they are), but can we all agree that listening to a voicemail message from a business you're working with doesn't take that long, and can save a lot of confusion if … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up, November 29, 2020

Sunday Sum-Up: November 8, 2020
Photo by cottonbro on Pexels.com Okay, y'all. This post is going to be a trip. As I write this, I have had.... four glasses of celebratory wine? And also lots of sugar. So this past week, with the election results taking approximately five years to be announced, my attention span was basically non-existent. I did … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 8, 2020

I had to take Sidney in for his vaccinations on Wednesday. He gets extremely stressed out when he goes to the veterinarian (read: angry and striking out at everything and everyone), so he has to be sedated. This means I drop him off early and pick him up a couple of hours later, after he's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 25, 2020

Another quiet week on the blog, due in part to a lack of time and in part to some annoying computer issues which I think I've mostly solved. They weren't disrupting my ability to do things, just slowing the system down and making it take twice as long. I've been working on crochet projects, but … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up, October 18, 2020

Hello, October! Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com The weather has been positively lovely. Now it just needs to NOT end up being in the 80+F range at the end of the week, and I'll be thrilled. It also needs to rain. Because it was beautiful on my day off, I headed downtown and wandered around … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 4, 2020

I mentioned temperature jumps last week, and we got them this week. On Sunday, it reached 93°F (34°C), and on Tuesday, our high was 45°F (7°C). It wasn't quite as dramatic of a jump as they had in Denver, where it reached 101°F on Sunday, and was snowing by Tuesday, but it was still a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: September 13, 2020

A few things from the week: On my day off, I drove all the way down to the botanical garden to photograph the flowers and whatnot, only to get there, have a lovely shot lined up, and then realize that my camera had no memory cards in it, and I had left my regular camera … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: August 16, 2020
Sunday Sum-Up: July 26, 2020
So. Last week is over. Hooray. The first half of the workweek was incredibly busy, and I'm glad it's over. I'd get home at night and just flop on the couch and not want to do anything at all except watch a bit of television. Which I did. Some of it was more enjoyable than … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: July 26, 2020

When my friends' child was about three years old, she would look at any new food and declare, "I don't like it!". She used an identical cadence every time she said it, and I heard it so often that I can recall it perfectly, even though she is now seven and hasn't said it for … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: July 19, 2020

The heatwave broke! Finally. A front moved in on Thursday and brought storms along with it-- high winds, heavy rain, and plenty of thunder and lightning. And also a microburst, because why not? The marginally cooler weather will last for another week at least, so hooray for that. 85°F I can live with. 95°F and … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 21, 2020
