Messing about with empathy
Happy Meme Monday. I wanted to share a funny meme today, but many of the funny memes I have collected are snarky, and I wanted something lighter. So I’m sharing this. I find it funny because I definitely have peasant DNA. I’m cutting way back on added sugar, attempting yoga again, and walking several days…
Happy National Onion Day! It didn’t seem fair to give onion rings a post without also honoring onions. Hubby and I eat a lot of onions. I love scallions and add yellow or white onions to everything. A burger isn’t complete without an onion slice. I was curious to know how many types of onions…
I had dinner with a good friend the other day, and she gave me the following quote from a Quote-A-Day calendar she had. This is proof that my friends truly know me, but it is a good quote for everyone. “Before beginning a Hunt, it is wise to ask someone what you are looking for…
I was going to share a bunch of fun space facts, but then I learned one that was so incredible that I’m singling it out. I’ll give you more space facts in July, but this one deserves to stand on its own. I actually researched this fact because I was skeptical, and we all know…
Have you been watching Loki? The third episode has dropped, and I haven’t missed one yet. Everyone knows I am a Marvel fan, but I’m not a Loki fan. He’s okay, and Tom Hiddleston does a great job playing him, but I like my characters a little more trustworthy. But I’m filled with a glorious…
It’s summer reading program time at my library. I’m actually doing two this summer, but I just finished the one at my local library. Finding new words is one of the tasks, so today, I want to share the five fun words I discovered. These words are from a Mental Floss list of colonial slang.…
Happy Onion Ring Day. This seems to be a random day for a side dish holiday. National French Fry Day is July 13, and I’d much rather celebrate that. I have nothing against onion rings (I love them in a Carls Jr. Western Bacon Cheeseburger), but I never order them as my side dish. The…
Happy summer! There are three months until Fall is officially here (the autumn equinox), so it’s a perfect time to create a goal and make a change. As always, I have many goals, but this summer, they are centered around moving. That means decluttering goals, job and home hunting goals, eating less sugar goals, and…
Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers and father figures out there. Thank you for all the love and support you have given over the years. Happy Summer Solstice! As you know, the solstice is not a day, but a moment and that moment happens at 8:31 p.m. DST. I am doing a low-key walking…
If you follow me on Facebook, you may know that I ran three half marathons on three consecutive weekends in May and June of this year. You may think I’m crazy (I don’t deny that.) I had a purpose for running all these races, and since I received my official notification, I wanted to share…
