Since I've shared the part of my weekend when I did do things myself, I believe it is only fair to also share the days since then when I've been very much accompanied. Monday I went to see my ENT. I wasn't alone. My doctor pretty much did what I expected - an in office … Continue reading Not doing it myself

Minnewaska trail run – 10/12/14
Last Sunday I did what I've done on countless other Columbus Day weekends - I drove down to New Paltz to get out on the trails in Minnewaska.

Could I forsake peer comfort with foot comfort and wear flats? Accessories were … Continue reading Sipping from Siro’s Cup

There was a time when I felt overwhelmed by the needs of my children. The attention they demanded caused me to abandon my interest in taking care of any other living things, specifically my plants. I believe I have one houseplant which survived those toddler years. It is a shadow of its former self, but … Continue reading Friendship Garden
Summer solstice
It isn't often that I have a day when nothing displeases me. When such a day as this occurs on the absolutely longest day of the year, it makes for an incredibly satisfying day. That is precisely what I had yesterday. The day began with flowers as I cut a bouquet of the beautiful roses … Continue reading Summer solstice
