One of the first things I had to do today was deal with our son’s glasses. The rim of the right frame broke at the point where it connects to the bridge. I took the glasses to two different eyeglass … Continue reading
Playing catchup
Not a lot to say about the weekend (0 words), so I’ll just give you pictures for both Saturday and Sunday prompts for Inktober: “ferocious” and “trail.” The lion is on a merry-go-round at Henry Vilas Zoo in Madison, and … Continue reading

Yesterday, a bit after 4, I couldn’t keep my eyes open. Laid down to nap for a bit, and when my son woke me to ask about dinner (I ordered pizza), the head hurt, I couldn’t handle light — basically, … Continue reading

Gilgamesh was a Sumer king
Of him the tablets proudly sing … Son wanted to talk about Gilgamesh today. It was fun reading him a summary from online and snarking about it. (Like, if Gilgamesh could survive walking across the bottom of the sea with … Continue reading
Dance of life
Still not as much focus as I’d like, but I knocked a few things off my to-do list today, so I’ll take it. Words tomorrow, even if it’s just three sentences. Today’s Inktober prompt was “graceful.” I considered going with … Continue reading

Superstition
I’ve never minded Friday the 13th. With one blood relative and one in-law having birthdays on the 13th of different months, if anything, I think it’s a cool day. On the other hand, it’s the second week in a row … Continue reading
