I found the Dotted Poppy Etsy Shop a few months ago. The owner, Deb is the mother of a blogger that I read often, Kate of the Small Things Blog. I noticed that Deb creates earrings similiar to those at Anthropologie. The earrings are light, comfortable and don’t turn. I purchased a few pairs for myself […]
Thursday, March 7th, 2013Dear Senator Golden
I contacted Senator Marty Golden’s office in June 2012. I exchanged several e-mails with Ray Riley/ John Quaglione at Martin Golden’s office. I thought Riley was a much older man because he took a long time replying to an e-mail and didn’t follow up. When I called the Golden’s office and left a message with […]
Monday, March 4th, 2013Kind Words from a Former Student
I don’t love Facebook, but if I don’t go on there, then I will miss the kind words that my former students share with me. This student has a job lined up at Boeing after graduation this June too – he’s amazing! And I am grateful and blessed. Here’s the video he shared:

Sunday, March 3rd, 2013Dooce Sold Her House and Begins a New Chapter in Life
Dooce Blogger, Heather Armstrong sold her Mansion. The Federal Heights, Salt Lake City house was originally listed for $1,595,000 in July 2012, but was reduced to $1,475,000 and then to $1,390,000. I guess the housing market hasn’t improved in Utah like it has in Brooklyn. I was curious about what the actual offer on the home was because Utah […]
Friday, March 1st, 2013RIP Daily Hilse Dwyer
It was an honor to know Daisy Dwyer. She was brilliant. I babysat for her son for three years while I went to college. I remember being in awe of the books she published. She was an anthropologist and an attorney – how many people do you know who had two amazing careers? She was vivacious […]

First, I am really sorry you are searching for information about a lump on your cat’s back leg. We know how scary, sad and strange it felt. Who knew cats could get his. Our cat of 14+ years, Herb developed a lump on his back leg. Although I couldn’t see how large it was, […]

Watched the YouTube video of Jonathan Montanez….what a hero. Montanez’ parents raised him well. Stories like this should be shown on the news all the time so that people’s faith in humanity can be restored once in awhile.
Monday, February 25th, 2013One Letter on my Keyboard Stopped Working
The letter X on my keyboard stopped working. Just like that, I no longer had a letter X. Every time I hit the letter, it would give me 022 or 033. It wouldn’t type the letter X in any application or web browser. I thought I had enabled a macro or got a computer virus. […]
Wednesday, February 20th, 2013No Bells Sound for the Important Decisions in Life (or Politics and Fracking)
The title above came from somewhere, but I am unable to identify the source. For the past seven or eight years when I (or we) have made big decisions, I’ve often thought, “No Bells Sound for the Important Decisions in Life.” So Lee bought me a bell and we ring it all the time because […]
