I began my last column talking about our dog, Riley, and how he’s cute. He is cute. Very, very cute… For the most part, having him sleep in our bed with my husband and me is not bad. Because, well, we’re asleep. And if we’re both in a deep sleep, Riley could have a party, […]

Our dogs, Riley and Mae, are really, really cute… And it’s this cuteness that, some days—or in this case, nights—is the only thing that keeps them alive. Truth be told, I wouldn’t hurt them, ever. But I would seriously think about throwing them out of our bedroom. Because, my friends, you just haven’t lived until […]

One of my dogs has gone mad. No, not the kind where she’s got rabies and running havoc through 1890s London. And it’s not the kind of mad where she made a potion in her doggie laboratory, and has now turned into Ms. God (Get it? Dr. Dog and Ms. God…Okay, never mind.) It’s certainly […]

During the pandemic, lots of people began purchasing what they needed online. Some also began buying lots of what they didn’t need online. I fell between the two. While we got essentials, like groceries, delivered, I didn’t buy a whole lot of other stuff for a long while. Sure, I bought a few items—okay, let’s […]

I have an excellent memory. Really—in that it’s so good that sometimes it’s almost creepy. Here’s an example for you: I’ll hear a song on the radio. Here’s what comes next, I say something like, “I remember this song! It was out the first year we were dating, and we heard it the night we […]

Since my husband has also been working from home during the entire pandemic, I’ve noticed some things that I do when I’m home by myself. Well, these are things I would normally do when I’m working at home, but I’ve never noticed them before until he started alerting me to them.

I recently opened the trash can in our kitchen and nearly dropped dead. It wasn’t because it stank (let’s face it, though, it could have). It wasn’t because there was a gross science experiment-looking thing that my husband had found in the back of the fridge and disposed of (although, knowing us, that could have […]

I’ve found that there are simple things you can say that will immediately get people’s attention. Like, “Hey, I won the lottery.” Or, “Look, they’re giving away free beer.” And, “I got a needle in my eardrum.”

My husband has a special nickname for me. I don’t mean honey…or sweetie…or my love.

As I write this, it’s the middle of February, and while I long for spring, there’s something else I could really use right now. A big, honking snowstorm. Yeah, I know. We complain about it when it snows. We shovel it. We hoard food when it’s about to happen. And, as I mentioned, we complain […]
