Courtesy of Free Vector Art & Image It isn’t always easy to know the why of love. Why does someone love you, why do you love them back? I’ve thought for many years that love grows out of knowing someone well; that first comes attraction, then infatuation. Both of these work to keep two peopleContinue reading “How to Know your Husband Loves You”

Pet Peeves
Courtesy of the Enchanted Home Oh, you so do not want me to write about my pet peeves (but I’m going to do it anyway). And besides, no one can do that better than Andy Rooney did. But I don’t think he thought of them that way. There haven’t been too many celebrity deaths thatContinue reading “Pet Peeves”
Yarn Remnants
This is my storage tub of small remnants. I like to crochet. Well, it might actually be more like I need to crochet. As a result, I have a lot of remnants of yarn. If the skein remnants are large enough, I leave them as they are. If they are small, I make them intoContinue reading “Yarn Remnants”
Gender Confusion
The only place our cat would sit still for me to take a photograph was in the scratching tray. As I’ve written before, we rescued a stray cat at the end of 2021. And I don’t mean we got the cat from a non-profit rescue organization. We really rescued the poor thing. The cat hadContinue reading “Gender Confusion”
Stairs
Courtesy of RentCafe The first place Bernd and I lived after we got married was a very small bachelor apartment in Santa Ana, California. It was about 500 square feet and inspired efficiency and organization in all things. It didn’t always work out that way, but we did our best.

Nobody Told Us: Projectile Car Ramps
Courtesy of Dragzine. Bernd’s car was white like this one but lifted higher in the back. The Chevy Nova of the time also looked a lot like the Chevy II, so it’s hard to be sure if this is actually the Chevy II. Years and years and years ago, when Bernd and I were firstContinue reading “Nobody Told Us: Projectile Car Ramps”
Nobody Told Us: Frozen Waste Pipes
EcoClean We are accustomed to cold winters. We lived for almost 28 years in the higher elevations of Arizona. Temperatures could dip into the single digits in the winter and we would get snow. But we never had a waste pipe freeze. We never had to do anything special to keep them from freezing. Didn’tContinue reading “Nobody Told Us: Frozen Waste Pipes”
Snow!
This one is from 12/22/22. There is even more snow now but the driveway looks messy so I didn’t include a picture from today. As a child, growing up in Southern California, I loved snow. The few times my parents took us to Lake Arrowhead or Big Bear were like magic for me. I couldn’tContinue reading “Snow!”
Safe Winter Driving
In actuality, the safest thing to do when the snow is falling and the temperatures are below freezing is to just stay home. That was advice that I gave myself and planned on heeding in the future no matter what my husband, Bernd, might have to say. Because we had everything set up for ourContinue reading “Safe Winter Driving”
