iPhone Journey – Day 32
Harper thought I was taking too long in the coffee shop and was making sure nothing had happened to me. It’s been interesting visiting a variety of coffeehouses during our walks and discovering the unique vibes. There have been those that felt like stepping into an office meeting, another had a library vibe that made…

I’ve Been Pondering…
My love of classic cars and vintage character. As I’ve aged and tried to accept many of the modern changes, I continue to find myself choosing things from the past. Still prefer classic rock, classic cars, reading actual hardcover books, classic movies, vinyl records, athletes celebrating scores with a high five and I won’t give…

I’ve Been Pondering…
The phrase up shit creek without a paddle. One of those phrases I’ve heard throughout my lifetime, but not one I liked or wanted to use until this week. While my mother is still improving and recovering, my husband now has vertigo and while I don’t need a paddle for the creek, I am about…

Taylor Swift mania after having too much time on my hands and being in between songs and shows. Well, to be honest it all began with news of a special Taylor Swift milkshake at my favorite bakery celebrating her sold out shows Friday and Saturday night in Detroit and enjoying torturing my niece with Swiftie…

Going on strike against some topics at the water cooler or, in my case tree chats, since I don’t even know if water cooler chats still exist. As someone who once orchestrated a strike in my union days, I’m ready to walk out over any DeSantis/Trump coverage, news channels that only want to talk about…

I’ve Been Pondering…
The enjoyment of tip wars at my favorite coffee shops. Yep, I’m one of those people that doesn’t necessarily tip based on service. You never know what’s going on in someone’s life or how their day is going and as an introvert, I definitely do not care about over the top friendliness. Trust me, some…
