Recapping last week, someone was sick and someone died. All caught up. January 19 8th Grade: Mom and I went to [see grandparents]. Grandma looks good and Granpa looked sad. Again with misspelling “Grandpa”. This was my nana’s birthday, my grandfather’s was a week or so later so it made sense to see them. MyContinue reading “My So Called Life”

Catching up on life
Getting back to my earlier post where I review my old diaries. TLDR? My mom was having a rough week when I was in 5th grade and I was having a rough week in 8th grade. January 12 9th grade: My old guidance counselor died, I feel so bad. He was a really nice guyContinue reading “Catching up on life”
Too much stuff
Where can you reduce clutter in your life? I have too much Christmas stuff. I get sentimental about the ornaments and decorations given to me and can’t throw things out. I have too much Christmas-related stuff and every year I try to clear out but I don’t and then I struggle to put it allContinue reading “Too much stuff”
A Year in the Life
I have had some old diaries laying around and I’ve decided to journal them this year. These are from 5th to 9th grades, I’m hiding personal details and names to protect the innocent (not that anything crazy happened nor do I think anyone will read this). I seem to fall off after a week orContinue reading “A Year in the Life”
What is your favorite holiday recipe
Pomegranate Salsa. Take a pound or 2 or zucchini, roast it with olive oil, salt and pepper for about 30 minutes at 350. Add an avocado, red onion, feta cheese, oregano, lime juice and pomegranate seeds. Serve with pita chips. It’s a Martha Stewart recipe. I first made the recipe about 15 years ago forContinue reading “What is your favorite holiday recipe”
A loaf of bread, a container of milk and a stick of butter

Seltzer water- I try to limit how much I drink of it but it’s a staple Broccoli- a favorite vegetable. Frozen, fresh, whatever Popcorn- skinny pop orContinue reading “A loaf of bread, a container of milk and a stick of butter”
Different life
Is your life today what you pictured a year ago? No way. I have a new job and major family disruption. My life has changed so much this year, see post earlier this week. Like most people I had some ups and downs this year. While I prefer to focus on the ups the downsContinue reading “Different life”
Places
Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech? Yes! I am involved in community theater, both on and off stage. I did it as a kid and picked it up a few years ago. As someone who is introverted and shy it gives me an outlet to be crazy and uninhibited. Giving aContinue reading “Places”
Christmas Boxes
Each year I take out the boxes of Christmas decorations from the attic. Each year I always say that I will organize before I put them back. Each year I don’t. Whatever A year passes (well 11 months) from when I put the boxes away and when I take them out. A year of activityContinue reading “Christmas Boxes”
Morning Has Broken
Are you more of a night or morning person? I’m not sure if this is a typical response. I used to be a night owl. As a kid I would stay up late and watch The Tonight Show (during the summer). I loved the peaceful atmosphere of the night. Once I started working and havingContinue reading “Morning Has Broken”
