Addendum to My Thoughts
In actuality, this is an entirely new post since it’s not attached to the “Gathering My Thoughts” post, but it’s still in the same vein. In addition to losing the person I love most in this world, I’ve come to the realization that the loss of him also makes me feel old(er). While he will … Continue reading
Gathering My Thoughts
My thoughts are still a jumble of memories and emotions. For the most part, strangely, I don’t think it’s hit me yet how completely he’s gone from my life. There are the photos that he sent to me via the Line app; there are messages on the Line app and a text or two on … Continue reading
Love Story
Once upon a time on a small university campus in Kansas, I was there for Senior Weekend – where seniors spend the weekend checking out the campus to decide whether they want to attend that university. One of the events for the weekend was a dance at the Student Union, which I attended with a … Continue reading
Friday is For…
Well, after another massage at Lily Spa, Friday was for lunch at Copper Kitchen (yup, had all 3 meals there) and more shopping. My lunch at Copper Kitchen was the Cheeseburger Sliders (black Angus beef, organic tomatoes and chipotle mayonnaise), followed by the Cereal Milk Panna Cotta (chocolate cookie base, coffee crunch). The sliders were … Continue reading
I Want to Go Home

My 8:00 a.m. flight on Virgin America was delayed until 9:15 a.m., though we weren’t actually airborne until about 9:45 a.m. A friend of mine had wanted to pick me up … Continue reading

East Coast Epiphany
The company conference on the East Coast is over. After a 3:30 a.m. ride to SFO by my Brazilian friend that drives for Uber, my Monday started much earlier than usual. Normally I would have packed lighter for a 2-night stay, but both Newark, New Jersey and New York City were predicting rain. Thus, I … Continue reading
Bonne Anniversaire, Mon Amour!
Today is the birthday of my ex-husband. Maybe it was coincidence that I ran into one of his French friends this morning that I rarely see. Since I bear no ill will towards him in the least, let me amuse you with a few memories of him. I miss him waiting for me after work … Continue reading
Feeling My Mortality
Have you every done something stupid like make a mixed tape of songs that remind you of someone? I have… more than once. I’m so old that I made mixed tapes on cassettes of songs that reminded me of former boyfriends. Of course, I made those mixed tapes when I was still DATING said guys. … Continue reading
