Don’t give up on your health. Be your own advocate. Ask questions. Listen closely. Ask more questions. Don’t leave anything out. Your medical care is a conversation between you and your doctor(s), and you should be satisfied with the information you get. If not, seek out other opinions and perspectives. What prompts this? I have […]
Sinus Storytime!
Don’t give up on your health. Even if you’ve been dismissed over and over again, keep searching for answers. Be your own advocate. I wish I hadn’t given up for so long. So many doctors dismissed my concerns about my sinuses. One told me I’d have to be like one of those little old ladies […]
Unsolicited Criticism
Not too long ago I received some unsolicited criticism and it amused me. I don’t understand how an adult would try to control another adult’s behavior or beliefs. Ah, the poor, judgmental, religiously obsessed people. I pity them for being judgmental and obsessed with religion in this way. It accused me of being intolerant because […]
A Tale of Two Screen (Protectors)
The screen protector that came factory installed on my phone got damaged and it started to bug me. So I thought I’d look into new options. I went with an ArmorSuit Military Shield screen protector because of the reviews – great protection + easy application. Application was messy and complicated for me, having to spray […]
Choices, choices
Picking out a new phone is always an ordeal for me. My perspective changes based on how I’m using my current phone and how it’s responding to its current use. Currently I’m using my Google Pixel 2. It’s a great phone. Most of the time it’s snappy (still) and it handles most of what I […]
Bring Me Back by B.A. Paris
Bring Me Back by B.A. Paris My rating: 3 of 5 stars I wanted to get to this review closer to the time I finished the book, so my memory would be fresh. Sadly, I wasn’t inspired to write a fully fleshed out review. I enjoyed the book. I really did. It was cheesy, yes. […]
Plum Dandi Knits by Alicia Plummer and Melissa Schaschwary
I really wanted to LOVE this book. However, I found it to be a solidly average book. Let’s start with the flawed presentation. When choosing patterns, I like to be able to see detailed pictures from several angles to really get a feel for the piece. The photos here were very model-focused with few close-ups […]
Warm End to November
It was 66° outside today, the day after Thanksgiving. We don’t shop Black Friday. I can’t remember the last time I did – it must have been when I was in middle school. Instead, we took the dog to the park then took a stroll through Lakeshore State Park, in the middle of downtown. It […]
Goodbye, Good Girl by Renee Blossom
Goodbye, Good Girl by Renee Blossom My rating: 2 of 5 stars I really wanted to like this. So many teenagers and children have absent parents. So when a young woman sets off on a quest to rescue her father from perceived life-threatening danger, it’s an incredibly promising story. Kandace sets off after an event […]
2017 Milwaukee Air Show
We just got back from watching the Blue Angels at the Milwaukee Air show. It was great. I’ve been a fan of the Blue Angels since I was a kid, but until now I’ve only ever seen them on TV. I even had a Blue Angels calendar once! I got some pretty good shots and […]
