Sunshine and Bumblebees I hope that you had a wonderfully relaxing three-day weekend! My weekends have been filled trying to convert our backyard into a living pollinator garden.  It is much in transition, but it has been fun trying to decide which flowers should go where and what it will look like once the seeds grow and blossom.  Our living wall is starting to live, and our flowers are starting to attract bees. The gorgeous weather of this three-day weekend filled my soul with happiness as my husband and I puttered in the yard, our dog slept in the shade, and [...]

          Socially-Distanced Graduations The block in front of my house had two college (MICA and U of Arts), one Poly, and two elementary graduates so my neighborhood hosted a socially-distanced graduation ceremony for the four of them.  Neighbors and friends cheered along the street and also watched on Zoom as each graduate was announced.  The police came, bloop blooped their sirens, and announced each name as they walked down the street. It was touching and beautiful to see a community embrace their young people and provide them with the honor and celebration they deserve.   Last Thursday, a group of family [...]

                                     Staying Together By Staying Apart   Text on T-Shirt: "Easter 2020" I went to Target the other day for some much-needed supplies (baby food, cleaning supplies, etc.). As I walked through the store with my gloves and mask on, waiting at the end of an aisle for someone to make their selections and move on so that we could maintain a 6-foot distance, and paying for my items on the other side of a plexiglass wall, I strangely felt connected to those around me.  We are all in this together. We smile with our eyes and step aside to allow [...]
