last saturday, i decided to stray from my usual 4-5 laps around the pond in favor of following the other greenway path. even though i don’t go that way as often, i enjoy that part of the greenway because it smells like i’m walking through an old book store. but on this day, as i neared the other end of...
Hello, remember me? The absolute goofball with a shit-ton of notes and ideas in my Notion notebook and index cards that I fully plan to turn into a post either here or there, but due to Many Other Things, I have had neither the time nor the mental energy to write about any of it. Remember her?
Well, I’m back. Feel free to clap or roll your eyes (or both if you’re that coordinated) at this point.
We have a chance to change business as usual, to make more conscious choices. Let’s not go back to a broken and deadly paradigm. Let’s move forward toward a society that lifts all of us.
All righty, then. It’s taken me a while to get around to this post. Sometimes other projects and Real Life just demand more attention. (And also I’m finding myself more and more dissatisfied using WordPress as a content system, but that’s for another rant.) I look up at the cork board above my desk and see some of the souvenirs...
I haven’t looked at the legislation to confirm this, but I’m pretty sure it’s compulsory to eat black-eyed peas with collard greens and cornbread on New Year’s Day. While I was watching WRAL last week, they had a segment with a recipe for a black-eyed peas, collards, and cornbread casserole that looked interesting. Thank goodness I remembered the gist of...
Wow. We’re closing in on an entire year in Raleigh. It still blows my mind that I actually moved across the United States. With two cats. (Who hate car rides.) I have yet to get over to the beaches but at least I no longer have to constantly remind myself that the ocean is EAST and the mountains are to...
California is burning again and the devastation is incomprehensible. The entire town of Paradise was leveled in the Camp Fire. Seventy-one known deaths and over 1,000 people are unaccounted for as of 11/16. I can’t even wrap my head around that. My heart is broken for the families who have lost loved ones (or haven’t been able to locate them),...
We’re getting into Hot Cocoa Season. HOORAY!!! I’m wearing shirts with sleeves that extend below my elbows. WOOT!!! The trees are turning and the colors are stunning! However, it’s still and forever Allergy Season for me because apparently, I’m allergic to air. Win some. Lose some. Where DOES the time go? It’s mind-blowing to realize that I’m well into my...
Last week I celebrated the return of my photoblog and just realized it’s as good a time as any to point y’all to other places where you can find my content online. I set up a portfolio page on Contently. It keeps my work in a neat, tidy place. Here’s the list of places to find my content: Aggregated articles/posts:...
I really missed my photo blog. Earlier this year I discovered that my host didn’t have my blog on a secure server, so I had to go through a big snarl to get my stuff transferred to a secure server. Unfortunately, and what wasn’t made clear when I initiated this change, I was no longer allowed to have separate WP...
