I sneezed myself into a nap
Today I had to get up right at 6am so that I could work out. Let me tell you that working out that early on a weekend is a brutal way to live. I had to do it though. The person that was helping me out by […]
Bye bye apartment living
Well, the time has come for me to say goodbye. The time has come for me to have my final moments with my apartment. After nine years of house living, we gave apartment living a try. A pretty good try. I didn’t grow up in a house. Thus, apartment […]
I dream of dreaming
I just want to dream Find joy in my inner thoughts Find comfort in a bowl of chunky soup Hem a most awesome sail I want the perfect dream To cast a far thought with wide reach To trigger an avalanche of good humor Flex a most powerful […]
Need a moment to pause
Oh, how I need a shiny distraction A peace of mind to boot A serenity capsule A moment to pause A detour just about now would be nice The melancholia hanging on Whispers to myself to put me at ease Push back all from my tired eyes I’ve set in […]

The solar eclipse is coming. How prepared are you for this momentous occasion? Me, here, in California will have to experience through reliving my past memories and by living vicariously through those in Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska and across to the east. When I was a kid, I […]
It finally happened: You’re weird mom
My son, the light of my life, is about to turn nine years old. A week and a half left for me to enjoy his eight-year old self and brain. As an eight year old, he started solving more and more problems independently and liked it. He enjoys […]
It felt like three days in one
We all know that Fridays are tough. You look forward to them arriving but once you are living it, the day goes by very slowly. Sometimes, agonisingly slow. I lived one such day this past week. By 3pm, I already felt as if I had gone through three […]
The ice cream truck: Yes, it’s still a thing
The sound of the ice cream truck has been one that I believe I can truthfully say I have not heard during the past eight years or so. First off, they wouldn’t stop in my New York suburban neighborhood because my town had 8,000 people. In NYC itself, […]
