Mothra vs. Wojo
By Michele Wojciechowski on November 5, 2020
It was a normal, sunny day in the land of Wojo. And in her home office, our heroine was reading through some notes on her desk, preparing to write a story. The townspeople—AKA her two dogs—were sleeping peacefully at her feet. It was a good day. Until it arrived…

Fighting Over the Thermostat: Quarantine Edition
By Michele Wojciechowski on October 22, 2020
My husband and I love to play games. While we like everything from Taboo to Monopoly to Scattergories, there’s one game that we play all fall long. We call it “What’s the Thermostat set on?” We’ve been playing this game since we first got married. As the years have passed, the game is just as […]

What Day Is It?
By Michele Wojciechowski on October 1, 2020
I never thought I’d be this way. At least not until I retired. But let’s face it—writers never really retire. They tend to drop dead at their desks. I’d actually like to go in my sleep. So perhaps I’ll fall asleep on my desk—and then drop dead. Though I don’t want that to happen for […]

Quarantineacationaversary
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 24, 2020
In June, my husband and I experienced a huge milestone in our life—we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary! Hooray! Woo hoo! Yay for us! We were planning on spending it in Cape May, and later in the year, traveling to London, where we’ve never been, and possibly Hawaii, where we went for our honeymoon (and […]

Cleanliness is Next to Sloppiness
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 22, 2020
During this pandemic and its related quarantine, I’ve learned quite a bit about myself. I love sitting on the front porch and watching nature. I love having my husband work from home. Oh, and evidently, I’m both a neatnik and a total slob at the same time. Think these two ways of living can’t possible […]

When Killer Trees Attack!
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 22, 2020
During quarantine, I’ve been trying to spend time outside each day. I watch the squirrels, listen to the birds, and commune with nature. Actually, I’m mainly getting out so that I don’t completely lose it being stuck in the house most of the time. Lately, though, I’ve also been watching my husband. Before I get […]

Loafing Around
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 22, 2020
During this quarantine, I’ve discovered a lot about my husband. Like if he could, he’d work from home forever. Or how he likes sitting on the front porch to watch hummingbirds just as much as I do. Oh, and he’s cheating on me. But it’s not what you think: it’s not with another woman (or […]

Painting Myself into a Corner
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 2, 2020
You never realize how much you can’t stand a paint color in a room in your home until you’ve noticed it every day for five months while in a quarantine. We need a change! The upstairs bath that has always been a stark white, the hall bathroom that we painted what should have been a […]

Purging Piles of Paper
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 2, 2020
As a writer, I have a big problem. It’s not writer’s block. (Sometimes it is, but we won’t tempt the fates by talking about it.) It’s not thinking about what to discuss at the water cooler. (I work from home, and my dogs can’t talk…yet.) It’s not even trying to figure out what outfits I’ll […]
