As you may or may not know I play the harp. Back when I was but a child, I saw somebody playing a harp and I just fell in love. Unfortunately for me my mother had musical fantasies of her own and I got to live those out instead. It didn’t matter that I had […]
I’m thinking of changing the name of this blog to “I’m an Idiot”, seeing as how that’s the theme of most of my stories. Honestly I don’t know what’s happening. I am dropping things, breaking things, crashing into things; it’s a little scary. Can that be the sign of a brain tumor? What about dimentia? […]
This is where I park my minivan, Betsy, every day. Right here in the driveway. Yesterday afternoon I walked out to get in my car to pick up my kids from Middle School. Only, this is what greeted me. No car. Before you ask if it was stolen let me assure you that it wasn’t. […]
I know you’re expecting me to tell you about that mascara or lipstick that you simply must have. Here’s the absolute most important thing you need: Sunscreen Yep. Every single day. Winter, summer, even if you live in Oregon and the sun hasn’t come out in days. If you can see without a flashlight, your […]
So, did you have a nice break from worrying about food storage? Let’s get back down to business here. You will most likely be traveling this summer at some point so let’s have this be preparedness every-other-week for the next few weeks. On the off-weeks you can catch up with any items you might have […]
I have a special talent that I have almost perfected. It’s shocking how fantastic I am at it, really. I somehow manage to lose things a dozen times a day. If only I had a dollar for each time I said. “I just had it two seconds ago!” Today’s total madness is being caused by […]

Because I was on a high from the jam-making I decided to be super domestic and make a tablecloth for my kitchen table. It’s one of those square tables that I’m seeing more and more, but nobody makes tablecloths that size (60″ sq). So I bought some darling polka-dotted fabric (In blue and green […]
Please welcome the newest residents chez W: These are Finn’s new mini-crabs (A.K.A. Fiddler Crabs). They are a lot more interesting and easier to take care of than those lame-o hermit crabs that are popular. They like to scurry around and quarrel with each other (you could call them “crabby”, I suppose. Ba-dum-bum!) Finn, despite […]
