The day started with a phone conversation with a friend. She is been such a light in my life for the last few years. She also listens to me when I'm off the deep end. Thank you. Organizing files at work. This is fun for me. I very much like to be organized. I looked … Continue reading Thursday, January 21, 2021

A trip to the dentist and a new president today. I need a filling and a crown redone. Yuck. President Joe Biden. Not yuck. I was able to watch some of the Inauguration. Words are important. There were beautiful words in the presidential address. I'm feeling very wary of words from a politician, no matter … Continue reading Wednesday, January 20, 2021

One of those days where you just feel off. I think it's something in the air. Normally spacey me became twice as spacey. I'm getting better at accepting these days happen. Old Pam would've beat up on herself. Wes is back in school after the long weekend, Charlie still doing school from home. Our town … Continue reading Tuesday, January 19, 2021

Today is Martin Luther King, Jr. day and school is closed. We decided to change our scenery and drive into Boston. We walked around the city a bit and had some lunch. I think it was good for all of us, especially me. Boston was quieter than usual, but still good. We were able to … Continue reading Monday, January 18, 2021

Today was a two movie day! Hook and The King of Staten Island. Two movies full of heart and I loved them both. Christian took the boys for a hike. I stayed home and enjoyed the quiet house. Crazy to think we've been all in the house together, for the most part, for ten months. … Continue reading Sunday, January 17, 2021

It rained all morning. On my way to the grocery store, the car was quiet except for the rain hitting the roof. It was comforting. It made me remember being in the backseat of my mom's station wagon. The brook was raging today, full from the night's rain. I passed a tree the beavers had … Continue reading Saturday, January 16, 2021

I walked around the farm today, along the brook and up through the fields. I visited the goats too. The weather has been warm for January in Massachusetts - 30's for the most part. A little blessing in these crazy times. Wes was home from school today as his test didn't come back in time. … Continue reading Friday, January 15, 2021

An odd day. Wes stayed home from school because he wasn't feeling well. This meant a trip to the Covid testing site, as he won't be able to return to school until he has a negative test. He was perfectly fine by lunch. I'm not feeling the greatest, and it's likely just too many consecutive … Continue reading Thursday, January 14, 2021

How is it that I've woke up, on my own, at 4:00 am exactly two days in a row? I'm serious. How does that happen? There was a sweet pink sunrise this morning when I went outside to bring the trash down to the road. Charlie sat down in the recliner after dinner. Gracie knows … Continue reading Wednesday, January 13, 2021

I had a nice conversation with the cashier at the grocery store this morning. I was buying quark. Ever heard of it? I hadn't until last week. It's like yogurt but not tart. She had learned about it as an exchange student in Norway and told me a bunch of different ways she's seen it … Continue reading Tuesday, January 12, 2021
