With many folks working from home now, some workplace issues have likely fallen to the wayside, whereas new ones are undoubtedly surfacing. For those of us deemed essential, in-person workers, many things about our days look different beginning with mask wearing, sanitizer use galore, gloves, distancing, etc. It’s been a delicate balancing act of doing …

Black and White Like a Zebra
In keeping with the times, I’ve decided that I have a list of things that I am offended by as of late. No offence intended. 1. Zebras—their stripes bother me! I feel that they are too linear, too black and white. Personally, I’d like to see some grey in there. It would make me feel …
Can We Make It Tomorrow Instead?
Would you go back and do it all over again? In some ways, I would and in other ways, I’d say a very polite, “No, thank you.”. Of course, perspective is all relative to time, isn’t it? Knowing what I know now, I’m glad I did many of the things that I did, but I …
A Nibble Here and a Nibble There
One of my all-time favourite ‘chick flicks’ is, Thelma and Louise. There’s just something about two grown women making up their minds to go on an adventure despite their personal trials and tribulations that is enticing. It doesn’t hurt that they each uncover some attributes along the way that they didn’t fully realize and in …
Tissues Anyone?
The other day I blogged about various multi-packs of items and Irene at My Slice of Mexico commented about tissue boxes and it got me thinking about the white squares a little more thoroughly.

There’s Always One
Courtesy of reddit.com Have you ever noticed that mixed, specialty packs of things always contain a dud or two that no one really likes or wants? It’s like there is an unwritten (or maybe it is written?) rule by product companies that if they are going to offer variety packages to customers, they must include …
#Dear Sunny Boy or Girl…
I chose the picture above for this post because the frozen soap bubble reminded me of a crystal ball. It sure would be nice if I could help the sun read its fortune. It would go a little something like this, "You are getting ready to shine like you've never shone before, especially in Canada …
Drooling Over Myself Decades Later
As a child, I used to watch my parents fall asleep in their rocking chairs after dinner. I could never figure out how they could sleep sitting upright like that, heads dangling, often snoring which never worked out well for TV watching for us kids. That was okay though, because their nap time equalled more …
A Title About Titles
It looks like one crafty librarian had a little bit of fun playing around with book titles--re-arranging them to reflect these crazy pandemic times. You have to hand it to him/her and to COVID-19, as it has sure brought out our inner creativities. Maybe that is one of the many good things to come from …
The End.
In Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, habit number two is, "Begin with the end in mind." . So, let's try out his theory in the most literal sense... THE END.
