I didn't feel it, as I was driving in to work, but Michigan had an earthquake today. I guess it happened close to 7pm and was a magnitude 3.2 earthquake. Some friends of mine downriver posted about this on Facebook. I remember being at my grandma's house one summer and feeling the ground shake a … Continue reading Shake It Up!
Catching up…
It's hard to believe that is has been over a month since I have written a blog, but then again, it isn't. I feel like I have been busier than ever, and I have been. I'm hoping this blog looks ok, as I see WordPress has changed a few things .... 6 Months already??!! On … Continue reading Catching up…
Getting Organized
In the Harry Potter films, each student puts on the "Sorting Hat" and it "sorts" out which house the student will reside in. I don't have a hat, but I do need to do some sorting/organizing of my blog. I want to take a minute and thank my friend Max. He's been following my blog … Continue reading Getting Organized
Well, well, well. Look who’s back…
This is my first blog since May 18th. I guess this is the longest I have gone between blogs and many have sent private messages wondering if I am doing okay. My good buddy, Max, sent an email asking about me and it took me a while to write him back. Knowing I work in … Continue reading Well, well, well. Look who’s back…
Halfway to 100 …
I received my invitation to join the AARP early last week. A week earlier the letter from the Secretary of State telling me my plates were about to expire came in the mail. Both served as a reminder that I was about to get older. Three days ago, I completed my 50th trip around the … Continue reading Halfway to 100 …

Quarantine has limited exploring outside the house to walks around the neighborhood, drives to the doctor, and the rare occasional visit where she sees people through the window. As … Continue reading It’s a Gas – Baby Burps
Nicknames
My grandparents had nicknames for everybody! In all honestly, I think my whole family had nicknames for everybody. For example, my dad and grandfather worked with a guy they called "Buckets". My dad said something about how he had to fill buckets with parts or something at work, which led to that nickname. There was … Continue reading Nicknames
The Little Things
Spring! I saw the above cartoon on Facebook and had to share it. Even though the "official" first day of Spring was in March, it is actually starting to feel like it here in Michigan. When people ask my what my favorite season is I usually say "autumn." Spring is a close second. Spring is … Continue reading The Little Things
Friday Fodder
Hello readers. I hope this finds you safe and healthy. This is, yet again, another blog that is full of random thoughts in no particular order. Baseball My home team, The Detroit Tigers, have not been much to watch in the past. I guess I was spoiled in that I got to watch the magical … Continue reading Friday Fodder
Quarantine Chrysalis
I woke up this morning with the intention of writing a blog. Not this blog, but another one. I have my little "blog thoughts" notebook with the things I am going to write about, however, as I sat down with my cup of coffee a thought hit me. That thought is what you are about … Continue reading Quarantine Chrysalis
