TMI Tuesday August 31, 2021: Questions, Questions, Questions

Shower or bath? Shower. I love my rain shower and handheld shower. I do miss bubble baths. Are you a good cook? And if so, what’s your specialty? I think so. Although not what you’d call gourmet, More down-home, reminiscent of ancestral foods and recipes. I don’t have one speciality. People have liked my RosemaryContinue reading “TMI Tuesday August 31, 2021: Questions, Questions, Questions”

Starting Out in Meditation

Because a friend had mentioned how meditation helped her and said that I had taught her how I thought I would post how I’ve taught others how to meditate. It’s not as hard as a lot of people assume. You don’t have to sit in a lotus position for hours for it to work. AsContinue reading “Starting Out in Meditation”

While I have never been conservative, nor have I ever voted Republican, I once was a Christian in two very Evangelic churches. Looking back, I realized many of these belonged to the churchgoers I associated with, and maybeContinue reading “Trumplican Fantasy World”

The Downfall of Andrew Cuomo

At one time, people who praised Andrew Cuomo were impressed by how well he handled the pandemic and created a program that educated about sexual harassment. I was one of them.
