TMI Tuesday: June 29, 2021 It’s All Good
1. What’s the most stressful thing in your life right now Right this very minute, it’s the heat. You may have heard that the Pacific Northwest is at the tail end of a heatwave.

Even my own childrenContinue reading “Quora Question: Children’s Routines”
The Heat Is On
I have lived my entire life in Western Washington, and there is a good reason I stay here… the moderate climate. It’s not too hot, and it’s not too cold, and we have a nice variety of weather… some sunshine, a little snow, hail, wind, fog, and less rain than they have in Chicago.

MostContinue reading “Racism in a Small Conservative Town”
The Pandemic and Vaccines
