16 Interesting February Facts
I have a love-hate relationship with February. It’s a short month that tends to raise expectations that it can’t always fulfill. Apparently, I’m not the only one who finds February…interesting. I did a search and came up with some (sort of) interesting facts about this complicated month. 1. February can’t seem to make up its…

Project Enterprise 101
Years ago, I wrote a one-off book set in space that I called my action-adventure romance. Then someone told me it was science fiction romance and/or space opera romance. Science fiction! What? At first, I thought, my science teacher from high school would roll over in his grave. And then, after further pondering, I realized…

Smile!
This image popped out of the hub’s Flickr feed. Like it popped out and almost bit me on the face. I’m glad it’s just the skull and not the Camarasaurus. More and more, I’m just glad I wasn’t born during the Jurassic Period early, middle, or late. (Though it seems to be an herbivore, I’m…

My Muse is a Cat
I was talking with my daughter about my woes in summoning my muse during a pandemic and my brain fog. Yes, I was in the whine-one-one zone. Way in it. My daughter listened very patiently and then she said, “Your muse sounds like my cats.” It was a huge lightbulb moment! My muse is a…

Sun is Setting on Winter #hubsphoto
The sun is setting on Yellowstone Lake and (I hope) winter. It made a brief comeback this weekend. We had some snow, but not the kind that sticks and it is supposed to be back up into the 70s this week. #Flamingoweathereport I hope our pandemic is “thawing,” too. For me, this picture is truly…

Bridge to Normal? #hubsphoto

Makeup and Hairstyles of the 50s
You might want to go ahead and play “Shallow” while you read this blog because I’m tired of being serious. So yeah, I’m going shallow here. I got a haircut and yes, I got my nails done and it felt good. It felt good to feel like myself again instead of that shaggy, ragged stranger.…

Rushing to Get Hair and Nail Appointments!
This was me and a few of my friends racing to get hair and nail appointments after restrictions were eased here in our county. (We had ONE case and that was over six weeks ago.) I can not tell you what a lift it gave my spirits to look in the mirror and see ME,…

Letting the Stress Runoff, too
I love spring and the sight of the snow and ice melting and flowers poking cautiously out for a look around. We can, and probably will have more snow before June. Some of the worst storms from my memory were in May. But the good news, they melt fast and the flowers and birds keep…

No One Looks Great Right Now
As we all emerge from staying at home, the sun is kind of merciless. lol I’m sure those elk are thinking, “What? It was a rough winter for all of us. So don’t judge.” I think the mountain sheep are agreeing with the elk. lol I know I’m not judging as we emerge from the house…
