Leaving, On A Jet Plane…

June 24, 2021June 24, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

For the first time in 15 months I’m about to step foot in an airport. I’m not quite sure yet how to feel about going into the airport, let alone in an self-enclosed cylinder with 200 or so people. Although being fully vaccinated, the risk of being around that many people for several hours is… Continue reading Leaving, On A Jet Plane…

Too Many Things on My List

Be back tomorrow (I hope). Too much to do and not enough time to get it done.

Garden Update 6/22/2021

June 22, 2021June 22, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

It was a pretty cool day today. Not as in a swell day, but as in a colder day. I almost needed a jacket for my morning walk. Thankfully it warmed up a tad by the time I got home and the breeze had died down a bit. My goal this evening was to install… Continue reading Garden Update 6/22/2021

Southern Italian Poached Fish

June 21, 2021June 21, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

It has been a little while since I last posted something I had made. Thought tonight would be a good night to do so. I got back into my routine yesterday of planning out the dinners for the week. This helps with shopping and scrapping about trying to decide what to make for dinner after… Continue reading Southern Italian Poached Fish

We Are Indentured Servants

June 19, 2021June 19, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

It is a sad realization to discover most of us are indentured servants. I know, I know, we have free will. We get to make all of our decisions. But, do we really? How many of us would like to have a different job? How many of us would like to live in a different… Continue reading We Are Indentured Servants

Sadly, Time to Say Goodbye

June 18, 2021June 18, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

The last two weeks has flown by. It is the Papa’s last night with us as he will fly home tomorrow. It has been a productive visit though. I believe, most if not all, his goals were met during his time here. It even included getting to see family and hometown. I’ll, we’ll, miss you… Continue reading Sadly, Time to Say Goodbye

Application Submitted

June 17, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

Nothing like waiting until the last minute to do something. The application to be on our HOA Board was due today. For some reason I thought I had time, or maybe I was secretly wanting the deadline to pass. Well, today at the HOA Transition Committee Meeting, one of the members asked if I was… Continue reading Application Submitted

Puzzle Heaven

June 16, 2021June 16, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

Just as with most employers, my work place is having some struggles in finding new people to join the team, and several people are opting to look for a new job. Many of them are finding success in their search. This evening my brain finally said it was time to put the challenge with my… Continue reading Puzzle Heaven

Don’t Stand So Close to Me

June 15, 2021June 15, 2021 Posted in Being Frank About LifeLeave a comment

As we re-enter society, since it appears we are moving to thinking we are post Covid, there are some things to decide upon. Things like masks, eating out, shaking hands, hugs, or even standing close to a stranger. For me, I’m getting okay with eating out. It has been nice to actually go, sit at… Continue reading Don’t Stand So Close to Me
