Towards the beginning of my Nature and Humanity course, we ventured into the topic of “nature” and “natural” and what those words mean to us and how they’re used in day to day speech in ways that are effective, problematic, and everywhere in between. Today I am going to share with you my initial post,Continue reading “The concepts of “nature” and “natural””

Holy Vaccine Response, Batman
Many of you knew I got two doses of the Pfizer Covid vaccine in early 2021 and that the second dose kicked my butt. My second dose was about 12:30 pm and by 10:30 I couldn’t pinpoint what exactly, but something felt off. By 3:30 am the body aches and chills and sweats had keptContinue reading “Holy Vaccine Response, Batman”

Well that was one heck of a rollercoaster
I like to think I’ve generally been careful throughout the whole pandemic. During such unprecedented times it’s hard to know what the “right” choice really is, or even if there’s one at all. Are you ready for this rollercoaster with me? It starts on Sunday, August 15. I’ve already canceled my plans to see theContinue reading “Well that was one heck of a rollercoaster”

Sanikind Sanitizer Dispenser Review
Covid threw us all for a loop last year, what with coming out of cold and flu season straight into a quarantine and not knowing who was carrying what illnesses, or even (for a while) what illnesses were all over what surfaces.

Domestic violence is terrifyingly common, and yet hardly talked about. The lack of awareness makes it difficult for people to recognize whether their loved ones might be affected, and even more difficult for people in toxic situations to leave. While most people tend to form an image in their mind of a battered and bruisedContinue reading “Domestic violence information and resources”
Appointment Protocol Updates: 3/15/2021
The weather is starting to show signs of getting warmer. We’ve been social distancing and wearing masks for a year and I know we’re all tired of having to do it. But exposures to Covid aren’t going away anytime soon, and almost seem to be hitting closer and closer to home and coming more frequentlyContinue reading “Appointment Protocol Updates: 3/15/2021”
Sunday March 14 is Daylight Saving Time
Every spring, Daylight Saving time always seems to sneak up on us. I feel like it’s two weeks in a row of saying “I can’t believe it’s already almost time to spring forward, I’m not looking forward to losing an hour” and then a week or two of complaining about the hour of sleep weContinue reading “Sunday March 14 is Daylight Saving Time”
A year ago
I had just gotten back from what would turn out to be my best timed ever and also last vacation. A few girlfriends and I went away for a weekend. We had been hearing some rumblings of a new virus but it hadn’t really popped up in the states yet, so we weren’t too worriedContinue reading “A year ago”
