Wifi, wherefore art thou?

March 31, 2020 Kristy L5 Comments

I am currently sitting in the parking lot between a Starbucks and a (very busy, I might add) McDonalds in home of finding a wifi signal. I have a ton of work to do today, but no internet at home and flickering power. Around 10am I announced I was off in search of wifi signal.… Continue reading Wifi, wherefore art thou?

Zoom, zoom, zoom

March 30, 2020 Kristy L1 Comment

I have seen lots of friends and family lately, virtually of course. I feel like we are all going to be Zoom and Meet experts in the coming weeks! Yesterday we had a family Zoom call. We looked like the Brady Bunch in our little boxes. It was fun, if a little over-stimulating. We've already… Continue reading Zoom, zoom, zoom

Easy Like Sunday Morning

March 29, 2020 Kristy L6 Comments

Sunday mornings in the spring time have got to be the best time of the whole week and year. As I sit in my favorite rocking chair on the back deck, it's just cool enough to be comfy in my sweatshirt and joggers (my uniform during this staycation), birds are chirping and singing and bouncing… Continue reading Easy Like Sunday Morning

Snakey Casey

March 28, 2020 Kristy L10 Comments

Yesterday, around 6ish in the evening, my husband urgently tapped on the back door, signaling for me to hurry out to the deck. Now, my sense of urgency did not match his, because he often signals for me to come outside in order to show me things like frogs, lizards, deer, etc. Not that I… Continue reading Snakey Casey

A Reminder

March 27, 2020 Kristy L4 Comments

This week I added something new to my to do list: email two classes of students individually each day for three days. Starting on Wednesday I used Google Classroom to send an individual email to each student. It's mostly the same email with a change made to personalize it for each student. I hit send,… Continue reading A Reminder

Rest in Peace, Kosmo

March 26, 2020 Kristy L12 Comments

Yesterday our sweet old man, Kosmo Kramer, went to the big dog park in the sky. He was the sweetest, cuddliest of our three puppers. He loved his humans and his humans loved him SO SO SO much. We miss him dearly and remember him so fondly. I'm just going to leave some pictures in… Continue reading Rest in Peace, Kosmo

Nothing New

March 24, 2020 Kristy L6 Comments

I don't have much to say today. I'm about to start cleaning things to distract myself. I dropped Kosmo off at the vet this morning after his 3rd seizure in about 28 hours. He had another one last night at 8:30 and then again this morning at 8:10 am. Wanda is currently glued to my… Continue reading Nothing New

Sick Pupper

March 23, 2020 Kristy L5 Comments

We have three dogs and our oldest, Kosmo Kramer, turns 14 in two months. He has a rough couple years. Two years ago, Komso tore his ACL. He had surgery and recovered quite nicely. Fun fact: Dogs who get ACL repair surgery have a 70% chance of tearing their other ACL. Well guess what, Kosmo… Continue reading Sick Pupper

No Chicken

March 22, 2020 Kristy L8 Comments

On our menu for today, because of the rain, was a roasted whole chicken with roasted pan veggies and mashed potatoes. Yesterday, during our weekly run to the Piggly Wiggly, my husband could find no chicken. The entire section was wiped out. I thought it was fine, we could just cook some chicken breasts which… Continue reading No Chicken

Heart Mermaid

March 21, 2020 Kristy L7 Comments

When I was little, maybe six or seven, I had to have an ultrasound on my heart. I have no idea why or what triggered that move, but I do kind of remember the cold of the jelly on my chest and the weird black and white image on the screen. What I definitely remember,… Continue reading Heart Mermaid
