“The Land of Confusion” We’ve officially been at this now for over two months. Signs of normalcy are returning not only as a result of governmental executive orders, but also because of personal defiance. The collective’s mantra: We’re frustrated. We’re tired. And we’ve had enough. I see both sides to this very peculiar coin: Everyone […]
A few days ago, we experienced Florida weather here at the Jersey Shore. In a matter of mere minutes, we had showers, sun, downpour while sunny, wind, sun, hail, thunder, rain, then sun again. Florida weather. At one point, as pea-sized hail pellets bounced off the deck, I kept a concerned watch for locusts and […]
An osprey crapped on me yesterday. Yes, you read that correctly. There’s no doubt that we are ALL suffering from a major infliction of cabin fever, and yesterday presented itself as one of the nicer days we’ve enjoyed in a while. A true harbinger of warmer days to come. The day’s recipe of impeccable sunshine […]

It’s status quo over here with no potential end to the socially distanced life we are all subjected to living right now in sight. Maybe a month more? Maybe two? Probably more. The World Health Organization declared a national pandemic a month ago today. The 31 days between then and now were both the shortest […]

Coronacation Chronicles – March 21, 2020

I absolutely love planners, stickers, and journals/notebooks. Always have and always will. To me, writing is innate. I’m forever jotting down my wishes, hopes, and dreams, and things I see and thoughts I have and tasks I need to complete. This is especially true for tasks I have to complete because, at times, I can […]
