Has it Been 10 Weeks Already?
10 weeks ago, I posted a story about my current healthcare situation (“Let’s Talk About Healthcare” on June 27). I had just had my initial appointment with the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance (CKHA) psychiatrist, and it did not go well. I left disappointed, distressed, dejected. All I got out of the appointment was a 10-week follow-up. …
Henry!!!
I hesitated with this post, because I don’t want to invite y’all to a pity party, but I’m all about full disclosure. Henry and I had a scare last week – he had a seizure Wednesday night. A mild one, but very upsetting. He never lost awareness – he was able to make eye contact…
Let’s Talk About Healthcare
Hello, friends! Those who know me, may remember that I’ve had a couple of health challenges in my life. Almost 20 years ago, I spent a month in the hospital having multiple surgeries and procedures to reconstruct some internal organs that a couple of gallstones had torn asunder. The care I received was exceptional. A…
Let’s talk about love…
Hello, my friends. Those of you who know me, know that I have been unlucky at love. Never actually been in love, in fact. I’ve had many “encounters”, shall we say, but never love. Just wasn’t in the cards for me. With men, that is. But animals, oh boy, have I been blessed! I’ve written…
Update on Me!
It’s been a while since I’ve written, so here’s what’s been going on: Overall, things are good right now! Thanks for going on this journey with me! ❤️
Update on Me
My anxiety is getting the better of me, friends. It feels like it’s getting worse, and I can’t explain it. The furbabies are all healthy and happy (I hope!), I’m employed – still on a consulting contract until the end of April, but there is talk of an extension. And I have cut all U.S.…
I got my first tattoo…
…probably 35 years ago. I was young and thought I was “edgy”, and/or desperately trying to BE edgy, like my cool older sister. It’s a small purple flower on my left arm. It’s harmless, really, but it doesn’t mean anything. Didn’t mean anything at the time. It was just an adornment. Not much different from…
2026 Book Forecast
I did some foreshadowing of my 2026 Reading Goals last weekend: 120 books, 26 of which must come from my TBR. BUT THERE’S MORE! I need to mix it up this year. I really enjoyed my library tours last year, so I’m adding an element of that this year. I have set the goal of…
2025 Reading Wrap-up
Let’s talk about my year in books. The original goal I set for 2025 was 120 books. I thought 10 a month was a reasonable goal. Well, then unemployment hit me, and I managed to read 140 books last year. I absolutely do not recommend unemployment, but it definitely helps your reading game. March was…
Christmas Wrap-up
I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas! We had a good holiday, and I think the animals were happy. 😁 I’m still in holiday mode, so today’s post is light on content; it’s essentially just a photo dump of the last couple of days. We’ll get back into the good stuff in January. On…
