Another fog day, so the kids are off school. They’re playing with each other right now, so I have a few minutes… why bother to start cleaning when I know that they’ll be “momming” me any second? The house is a disaster, and it needs a good few hours of attention at least. Why bother […]
Something weird is going on with the ads I see on many sites. I’ve been getting bombarded with ads for ‘bidets’. Now I would understand this if I had been making comments about toiletpaper, toilet humor, bathrooms, plungers or the like. Or even if I was doing a search to replace various plumbing fixtures. The
and I was asleep, but I woke to an intense headache. Two aspirin and a glass of milk later, the headache is receding and I’m wide awake. Hmmmm… Anyway, this reminded me of what I do when sleep eludes me. I like to read and now post in a blog. So why not combine the

While I’m on the topic of date night (see my previous post)… This week we did not feel like mini-golfing again on date night, so we went bowling instead. I did so well, we got a printout of the scores, much to my husband’s dismay – I’ve already mentioned how he has bad luck at

Tuesday I was in the same district, but got to sleep almost an hour later. I headed the same way in the morning, but turned off at the middle school corner to continue on northward to hometown-district’s northernmost school. I checked in and headed to class. The big difference in subbing for elementary versus middle
Since Sunday my sleep patterns have been severely off kilter. While even in the best of times, my sleep habits are not the best (only around 5 hours per night), this is weird even for me. I don’t care what time the post says (I haven’t bothered adjusting it to local time), it is now
Strange thing. I remember reading the Bradbury novel, and seeing the movie. But, I am now watching the movie and I can’t seem to remember it at all. Oh, I remember the basic story, but I don’t seem to remember any of the details. I remember the carnival coming to town, and of course Mr.

Feb 2, Groundhog Day. Any excuse to look for spring. Here we are, just a few days past mid-winter in Ohio, and everyone is looking forward to spring. We’ve had plenty of snow, ice and cold temperatures, and we will have quite a few more before winter is through. It seems like winter just goes
And it came early for me. Every year in late January or early February I re-read the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings series. Every year I find something new in the stories that I didn’t see in the last reading. I started early this year because I will need more time to finish. I

I was doing a search in the library’s database, and I came across the title Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom by Cory Doctorow. Further investigation showed it to be a science fiction book about Walt Disney World in the future. Not usually my type of novel (and I strongly prefer to read non-fiction anyway), but since
