Sadly, clumsy me has had many a fall lately. I fell crossing the street after becoming lightheaded. And, no, I was not texting or otherwise engaged with my phone. It may have been from being locked in an office with 100 boxes or it may have been being […]
I was here in New York for Superstorm Sandy and was displaced for eight days. A lot of people didn’t believe beforehand that the storm would be so bad. We learned a hard lesson. Last night, we got our first ever flash flood emergency alert and were told […]
The air is extremely thick. Choking, even. The critters are making all sorts of noises perhaps sounding the alarm. One’s face has a special glow with no cited source for the hue. Need to sleep. But here again come the memories. The rain promises to clean up the […]
Look, I’m a diehard New Yorker. I don’t drive. I love pierogies and bagels. I can walk for hours on end. Yet, lately I’ve been holding onto my pepper spray a little tighter and have been glad to wear a mask. Let’s start with the latter. New York […]

I had a few errands to run today that I truly did not care for. Well, errands are tedious. No really cares for them. One of my errands had me going into Manhattan in the hopes of a good outcome for a particularly bothersome issue in my life. […]
I used to travel a lot. I traveled light and always on time. Only missed one flight in my time and it was due to a horrible highway accident in Atlanta which already has very bad traffic. Otherwise, I make my flights. I don’t want to fret and […]
