Quarantine has changed my priorities. No, no, it isn’t anything truly dramatic, don’t worry. Just my musings as I start this short work week from my dining room table, overlooking my bright, sunny backyard. (With the air conditioner running because yeah, summer hit with the force of a Mac truck this year! P.S. – not... Continue Reading →
Tami’s Corona Thoughts
Blogging from the depths of Coronavirus 2020… I know, I know, it’s COVID-something something something, but whatever. It will forever be the Coronavirus to me, because the first thing I thought when this thing hit the mass media headlines was, “Oh man, this is either going to suck for Corona beer or it’s going to...

Distracted… Until Today
I’ve been distracted, and that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Wait, I should explain, considering the distraction is this horrible virus that has altered our world in a way that was inconceivable four months ago.

What if you’d called/texted and asked what he wanted for dinner? What if the dog had realized what was going... Continue Reading →
March Is Madness, But I’ll Be Okay…Eventually
It’s March. The worst month of the year. Which isn’t a fair assessment, generally speaking. March means spring, warm weather is coming. My dad’s birthday is in March; so is my husband’s and several other friends. St. Patrick’s Day. March Madness. Daylight Savings Time. And my son died on March 15th, last year. It’s weird....

When I Miss Him Most…
When I miss him most… When I can’t figure out something on my phone. Or my laptop. Or any computer or other electronic device.
