Messing about with empathy
Do you want to have a clean house and get rid of extra food in your pantry*? Invite friends to stay for the weekend. We had Jay and his son, Kaden, over last weekend. Hubby has known Jay a year longer than he has known me, so Jay and Kaden are more like family than…
It’s Monday and for some reason this meme spoke to me, so I’m sharing it with you. I hope we all overcome what is holding us back this week and do things that we thought were impossible.
I love looking at expensive cars. I don’t EVER want to own one, but I love to see them on the road. I saw a Lotus once in London, England and got giddy. Most of the time, I ogle Corvettes (my favorite car), but yesterday I saw a car I’ve never seen before, and I…
(YouTuber sounds like a potato.) I have finished my first week of making videos for my YouTube channel. I thought I might list a few thoughts I’ve had about working in this new medium. There isn’t any order here. I’m doing a brain dump, so a year from now, I’ll know how it felt at…
I like to think about infinity every once in a while. It’s sort of a hobby. When I’m not thinking about infinity, I like to think about zero, another interesting number. Numbers I try not to think about too often are attached to teeny tiny things like atoms or DNA. Those kinds of numbers make…
For most of my life, when I heard chia, I thought of pets (although I’ve never personally seen one.) About fifteen years ago, I read Born to Run and learned that people ate chia seeds for energy. When I went on a cruise in 2019, I had a chia pudding that looked ugly but tasted…
It’s time to talk about dinosaurs again. I love writing these posts because I have to do research, and I end up learning something new about one of my favorite subjects. (One reason I am moving to Bozeman, Montana, is because of dinosaurs.) We’ve probably all seen gigantic dinosaur skeletons in museums. They are amazing,…
Before I start today’s post, I want to thank everyone for supporting my YouTube channel. I already have seven subscribers, which I’m thrilled with. My third episode, the first ten-minute writing video, went live this morning. I hope it spreads to writers around the world. Onto today’s post. Happy National Melba Toast Day. I don’t…
Last week I learned a ton, and this week I plan to learn even more. I hope you learn something interesting this week too. No matter what you do or what you learn, you are awesome.
I have learned more in the last week than I have learned in months. I’ve created multiple blogs and podcasts over the years, yet I’ve never had more fun than when I made my first YouTube video. This first video isn’t the best ever, and I look forward to improving my recording skills, but I…
