I don't know about you, but I’m getting kind of sick of COVID-19. Thankfully, I’m not sick from it, just of it. The other day especially, this whole mess of protocols that we have to follow and the everlasting risk of coming down with it really got to me. In fact, I’m even partially annoyed …

An Old Dog in a New Age
Twenty-six years ago, I was just a little pipsqueak embarking upon a career that I had dreamt about since I was a little girl. As a recent graduate, I was young, naive, inexperienced and had none of the answers. Somehow, I possessed a University degree which stated that I was capable of entering my field …
Could It Be… COVID-19?
I take off my eye mask for sleeping and look in the mirror. Oh-oh! Pink eye. In my right eye. Pink eye is a COVID-19 symptom. I know that because the signs at all of my appointments have it listed along with all of the other primary signs of the coronavirus such as, shortness of …
When It’s Too Much…
I know I shouldn't, but I do it anyway. I have to know what's going on. What if I miss something really important? What's happening isn't right, it isn't fair! I'm in disbelief.

Want a sweeping victory in life? Don't sweep things under the rug. Take it from one who knows and has learned that lesson the hard way, many times over actually. Life's too short and it's honestly just not worth it. The sooner you deal with issues that come up, the sooner you can move …
At Least One Good Thing
Hmmm... I have to admit that I am curious about how you all are feeling about things now that we are few months into this pandemic. Obviously, I'm sure that we all continue to feel overwhelmed by the mass loss of life and the many other devastating effects caused by COVID-19, but still I have …
The Inconvenient Truths
I'm starting to get a little house stir crazy! Undoubtedly, our endless rain and gloomy skies as of late are not helping the situation, but the travel bug has long since bitten me and I cannot answer its loud, commanding call. To boot, many of our TV and news ads of late are trying to …
