Of course, the web is rife with made-up stuff, so when Cait first sent me this (after I said, “awwww”) I immediately went to track it down to see if it was real.
And it is. They even have a video.
“Staff have made sure he’s only getting treats safe for dogs to eat, and they do limit his purchases to just a couple a day (to … Read More
Cait has just finished up a rollercoaster year of service at a charter school for underprivileged kids that has culminated here. She needs to write a book about these kids. Unbelievable journey, in every way.
Amazing kids-all. Mine and theirs. Makes me feel there’s hope for the world, after all.
The winds, they are a blowin’ today. Skies are blue. Clouds are billowing. Air is crisp. And I LOVE it!
From early childhood and my first sailing days, these kinds of windy days have always made me feel excited and alive.
I guess I’ve passed this onto Cait. Not the love of sailing part, necessarily, but with assigning the description of windy days to “good sailing” days.
So when she, likewise, shares with me that it’s a good sailing day … Read More
Can I just say… STOP! People, just stop clicking on supposedly funny videos where ignorant people are too unaware or just don’t care that they’re treating their animals cruelly. I won’t be linking to either video. Nor will I share any photos for either of these.
In the span of two days, I’ve had two separate people send me links to videos they thought were hysterically funny. One was of a young woman in a rough neighborhood being accosted by … Read More
Cleaning out the attic last night and came across this. Happy Mother’s Day to me again!

Can you tell that I’m obsessed with foiling the sh*theads who have nothing better to do than harass people around the world with their nonstop scams?
Can you also tell that after investigating Call Blocking apps like Hiya (the absolute WORST for privacy violation) et al, that I would rather throw my phone away than use apps that are worse perpetrators than scammers for abusing your personal information and selling it over and over and over again to–forget highest–how ’bout … Read More
These are the faces of my family. Time zone clocks on my desktop screen.
With Easter coming up, I think back to when all of my children lived in one time zone, never mind under one roof. That was many moons ago. They’re scattered to the winds now.
We have to work hard to all wind up in the same place.
When they were younger, we always took a week to get together at the shore with our extended families. … Read More
Okay, I’m about ready to lose my mind with all of the scam/spam/robo calls I’ve suddenly been inundated with. Many of them during the middle of the night.
I’m guessing that one of my recently hacked accounts with some company that supposedly “really values my privacy and takes safety seriously” is the culprit. Does anybody have an account anywhere–business, bank, government, medical, etc.–that hasn’t been hacked yet? We’ve all gotten so many of these notices, “Sorry to inform you that … Read More
