Hospital
Yours truly has been out of the hospital for nearly a week. So, I had a cough since March. March. Yep. I coughed so much I thought I hurt my right ribs or my back on the right side. Oh it hurt to lay down, it hurt to sit up. I did indeed go to the local clinic and got some blood drawn. So, spent some days knowing I might have pneumonia. That would explain the coughing and the being sick since…
Tadpoles and Traffic Jams
That above is the road to Huntington, Oregon. That patch of water is the Snake River, at Farewell Bend State Park. The black areas to the extreme right of pic are where a fire torched the hills. Well, larks aflyin’. Howdy, July. I have tadpoles! I built two crappy mini ponds. The smaller one hosted a frog for a couple days. I saw the frog in the water. Okay. A while later I noticed tiny things…

Baker City
Howdy. It’s June. It’s my birthday month. I am going to Baker City to meet up with a friend and her son for a couple days. This is in the mountains, so to speak. Should be fun. I love getting a motel room to myself. I feel so grown-up. I can take as many showers as I want. Yeppers. So, yours truly got a new job. Well, it’s something I was doing for the whole damn year, in the…

The Death of Joy
Howdy. May is nearly extinguished. Irises are bloomin’ away. Bumblebees visit my sage blossoms. Bumblebees!! I saw the hummingbird yesterday. It glared at me for not having the feeder out. I have not been home to water or cut the lawn. The toads call at night, along with the owls. I cut off nearly all my hair. I am long-term subbing at a middle school in Idaho. It’s run by a retired Navy guy.…

It Feels Like A Prison
Howdy. It’s May already. Yeah, took a long-term subbing job for the middle school…where I used to work. Mm uh. It’s to the end of the school year, so about a month or sixteen days or so. The school is on a four day week. It’s…hellacious. Not the kids or the staff, but the principal. The micromanaging is insane in the membrane, insane in the brain. No movies, now I’m a one on one,…

As the tears arrive
I am quitting my commute healthcare job. Gas prices is what I will claim. Also, wear and tear on the Jimmy. It was made back in the 90’s. The real reason is I’m getting creeped out, angry and frustrated with this housekeeping job. I drive an hour and nearly twenty or so minutes to work four hours and drive back. Seven hour day. I’m not a spring chicken so it’s exhausting and I’m pretty much…
March Showers
Oh golly, it’s been a month. War. Gas prices. No snow. At least, in my neck of the woods that are going to be cut down so why enjoy them at all. The pessimism at war with the need to ‘just get on with it’ overwhelms. I’m tired, sick and tiredly sick. Been ill since January. Still coughing, still have snot dripping from my nostrils. Oh the play, I hear no one asking about. It’s going along.…
The Play Is The Thing!
Brand new month. Almost spring. Rainy, raw weather here in East of Oregon. I subbed on Tuesday, for half a day. It went terribly awful. I was very tired. The students were eight year olds. The math says they will act up with a sub there. And…THEY DID. Oh, the number of kids suddenly sick to their stomach or with a sore throat or their finger hurt. Sigh. The noise levels. Sigh. The feuds and…

End of month
Hello and howdy. It’s the end of a very short month. This one flew by like a bird using its wings. Yeppers. I have been working. Haven’t we all??? My car broke down and still don’t know what’s wrong with it. Had to borrow my dad’s pickup. Driving to and fro and here and there yet. Rejections galore but that’s not new or even notable, is it? Coffee. Mountain Dew Baja Blash. They get me through…
Dear Gentle Readers
It’s a new month. Finally. The rejections fly in like shivery little sparrows. Form letters do inform me that while my story was x, it just didn’t fit y. Fluckaduck, eh? Nothing new here. Yes, so. BRIDGERTON TIME. Aye, dear gentle readers, it’s season four of the soapy, not that historical romp, centered on a family of hot men and spirited ladies. There couldn’t be one plain Bridgerton son? A…

Froggy!
Welp. It’s nearly February. Where oh where did this month go?? Yours truly has had to drive to work in heavy fog. Or, as I like to say– Boy, is it froggy. I do mean can’t see the road, darkness and the void kind of froggy. Zero visibility. I’ve had to wait until the daylight sorta allows some visuals. That means I am LATE getting to whatever place I have to go to take care of whatever [insert…

The Grantchester Pitt holy hell 2026
January? Is it? Cause it seems like spring here in my teeny corner of the planet. Warm, record-breaking temperatures, for one. Snow up in the mountains only and lots of rain on the valley floors. The yard toad has been heard calling. Plants are confused and trying to grow. There’s mudslides, instead of avalanches. Yeppers, the list grow-eth long-eth. I heard the coyotes and the local owl family…

Windy and Rainy, with chance of little animals
Last night, my cat decided she was Huntress Suprema. I heard a suspicious rustling under my bed. Poe was taking a nap. Poe is a Lab mix, who is obsessed with my cat. Poe is now sniffing and trying to get under the bed. I see a little black shadow dart past me. That freaking cat brought in a live mouse??!! Again?? Oh no, it’s a thoroughly traumatized wee bird. One of the chickadee types. It’s…

Screaming Christmas
Yeah. Made the mistake of subbing right before Christmas Break started last week. Screaming. Fits. Tears. Tantrums. More screaming. Tossing everything in the room cause couldn’t put shirt in backpack. Another student was getting some help in room where backpack lived so…got a maelstrom all morning. Teachers and paras in tears or so stressed they were shaking. This is at the elementary,…
Birthdays and lost cards and new shoes
Howdy. It’s like spring here. It’s supposed to get colder and maybe even snow. Mm. Just in time for driving long distances for shifts, of course. My headlight is out. Getting bulb replaced. I did note that trying to drive with dims on was rather sketchy and, well, dim. I’m down to one wiper that works on the passenger side and my headlight on dim that’s shot. Poor old car! It’s a ’99 GMC…
December Wicked
It’s the last month of the year. I am as deflated as a balloon choking a heron. The weather here is anything but frightful, at least on the valley floors. I live in a rain shadow and some other geographic whatevers, so storms are few and far between. They go around us, as the local saying mourns. But hey, when one does hit, we enjoy the hell out of it, I tell ya. So, after working all weekend, I…
Update and Big Holiday Season Blahs
Remember back in June, when I just stopped contacting a ‘friend’ of mine? She was angry I kept sending her emails. That I was putting too much on her, [?] by wanting to tell her about my life, days, work, etc? Yeah. I did write her too much. I thought…I dunno. I thought we were friends. I don’t care or mind if a friend dumps on me or wants to write me novels via email. But that just might be…
