And good morning, It’s not morning. It’s lunchtime and I thought this would be a good time to do this because my husband is chewing potato chips and I simply cannot stand another minute of his crunching, galvanising and whatever else he does to create all that noise. When the kids were younger, my daughterContinue reading “Still married after all that noise”

And Good Morning, It’s kinda cold here, but not as cold as it is in the northern part of our state near the Canadian border. That is where my husband and adult son are heading for a long weekend of fishing. Feeling cold is not something that bothers my husband. Let’s call him Sven. FormerlyContinue reading “Musings over 50”

I just read an interesting article in the paper. As unlikely as it sounds, bookstores are making a comeback during our Covid Journey. People are reading more. And buying actual books. And sharing those with others. While a lot of people are still working from home, they are using the time gained from not havingContinue reading “Musings Over 50”

And Good Morning, What’s up with “Schitt’s Creek?” We had finished bingeing on “Last Tango in Halifax” and were looking for something to watch. I suggested “Schitt’s Creek” it had won a lot of awards. I admit, I’m not a fan of Eugene Levy, or as it turns out his son Daniel, but we wereContinue reading “Musings over 50”

And Good Morning, So what has changed for me during Covid? I used to get up a 6am to tutor reading at a public school. The teacher I worked with retired at the end of the school year before Covid. Then I took a year off. The public schools are virtual this year. So noContinue reading “Musings over 50”

One of the comics I read in the morning got me thinking about these Covid times (it’s either Covid or the election, right?). Two squirrels were sitting on a tree branch. A cat was sitting directly below. Suddenly, they show the cat getting hit on the head with acorns from the above squirrels. The caption?Continue reading “Musings over 50”

And Good Morning, So I visited my favorite blogger first thing this morning and was pleasantly surprised that she featured a recipe. It looks good and I printed it up for a future dinner. What’s better than a bowl of creamy wild rice soup! We went out last night for dinner and lamented over ourContinue reading “Musings over 50”

And Good Morning, Well the election is sort of over, though it will probably be days before we have a winner. Let’s not think about it. While on my morning walk with one of my dear friends, she started talking about all the things we’ve witnessed in our lives. We are the same age andContinue reading “Musings over 50”

And Good Morning, Thank God it’s Election Day. All this campaign nonsense will be over. Of course, the same stuff will continue no matter who wins, but I suppose it will be different stuff. Enough already. It is a beautiful day here in the neighbourhood. A lot of people are out walking their dogs, moreContinue reading “Musings over 50”

And Good Morning, I started out my day earlier than expected because of a cat knocking random items off the dresser. That was at 3:30 am. Actually that’s a pretty nice time of day, as long as you don’t have to accomplish anything important that day. And that is usually the case. I decided toContinue reading “Musings over 50”
