I had already been salty about the staggering number of in/out lists I was seeing everywhere. And then, I saw a notable economist (who shall go unnamed) interviewed whereas he shared his thoughts on market related ins and outs. Don’t bother talking about a potential recession, but feel free to ponder rate stabilization or the… Continue reading The Ins and Outs of Ins and Outs.

Dear John.
Dear John, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to our relationship. Well, I’ve been giving a lot of consideration to my relationships in 2023. Anyway, I’ve been reflecting. Also, analyzing. And then, a wee bit of overthinking. Okay, okay, you got me: there’s been a tremendous amount of thinking. It’s not very helpful that… Continue reading Dear John.

There are some people in my life who cancel on me repeatedly. There are some offenders that are so egregious that I’ve taken to making back up plans or at least telling other folks who inquire about the same date that it’s likely I will actually be free. I want to tell you that this… Continue reading #peaceandjoy
Silver Bells.
Mom and I went to see a dance program last night. It was amazing, but that’s not the point of this. Well, as long as we are gathering here, I may as well take a minute to wax poetically about the incredible performance. They were called Bzzz and they were tap dancers and a beatboxer.… Continue reading Silver Bells.
All I want this holiday season is…my rights.
I didn’t write earlier this week because I’ve been back and forth quite a few times regarding what I wanted to write about. There is just so much going on in the world. Oh, and it’s the holidays for some of us. Joy, right? Wrong. I mean, not entirely wrong. I still carry with me… Continue reading All I want this holiday season is…my rights.
Authentically, the Word.
Did you know that Merriam-Webster is unveiling its "word of the year" for 2023? I do because I heard it on NPR. I listen to ‘NPR News Now’ every morning, standing in my kitchen, while sipping coffee. And that is how I learned that Merriam-Webster has a bunch of data crunchers who research the most… Continue reading Authentically, the Word.
A Gratitude Listicle.
I cannot believe that Thanksgiving has crept up again. It’s amazing. I’m loathe to do the whole “time is flying” nonsense, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge how swiftly time has passed. It feels like the summer was just here and before that, the holidays. Anyway, here we are and so, comes my… Continue reading A Gratitude Listicle.
A B in My Bonnet.
I recently read a New York Times article, “Lauren Boebert Wants ‘Mercy.’ Some Republicans Want an Alternative.” I had so many thoughts before I even opened the article. Sadly, I’ve found the NYT to be somewhat unreliable as of late. There seems to be an implicit bias in a good number of their articles, whether op-ed or… Continue reading A B in My Bonnet.
The Power of Words.
I got stuck in a social media hole last night. My mind was restless and even though I’ve sort of sworn it off, I did find myself pre-slumber doom scrolling. I somehow landed on an influencer’s video who was offering an apology for misinformed statements she made in connection with the Hamas-Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Before you… Continue reading The Power of Words.
Let’s Give Them Something To Talk About.
You know the seven words that strike the greatest fear and pain in my marshmallow heart (well nine, if we are getting technical)? These: I don’t know what you’re talking about. I think we’ve discussed this topic before, but I am hoping to come at this whole deal from a slightly different perspective. Truthfully, I… Continue reading Let’s Give Them Something To Talk About.
