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 […]

A Cut Above the Rest
By Michele Wojciechowski on August 25, 2020
Because we’ve been under quarantine for months now, many of us have hair that’s looking a bit–well, let’s say that sans haircuts or color or blowouts or…you get the picture. Our hair has seen better days. At least I know not to cut it myself. I did that once years ago, and it was a […]

By Michele Wojciechowski on May 7, 2015
By the time you are reading this, I will have returned from my trip to New York City. I go once a year for a professional conference. As I write this, it’s a couple of days before I leave. But one of my dogs already knows. I have no idea how he knows, but he […]

The Weekend My Husband Got Sick
By Michele Wojciechowski on April 23, 2015
My husband doesn’t get sick very often. But when he does, it’s usually with something mild—like a cold or a sore throat—and he spends the next 48-72 hours driving me crazy and acting like a whiny baby. Please know that I love my husband. I really do. Because of this–and because we’ve been together, well, […]

Why Am I in This Room?
By Michele Wojciechowski on April 9, 2015
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 or while my husband and I are out. Here’s what comes next, I say something like, “I remember this song! It was out the first year we were […]

The Method of My Madness
By Michele Wojciechowski on March 26, 2015
Over the years, I have been becoming more and more of a sports fan. I’ve always loved baseball, and I enjoy indoor soccer. Nearly seven years ago, I became a true blue football fan. But basketball?
