I don’t have the words to adequately describe how disappointed, disgusted and literally scared I feel in this moment as a woman in this country. I knew we were still a country battling bigotry, misogyny, hatred and even anti-intellectualism, but….but. This is something else entirely. I thought we were better than this. I thought decency […]

I was so excited last November when I heard Sarah McLachlan was coming back to the Tampa Bay Area – after nearly a decade absence! Even better, she was going to perform at Ruth Eckerd Hall. A wonderful, acoustically beautiful theater that seats just under 2,200 people. The last time I saw her was at […]

Love and I went down to Honeymoon Island State Park Saturday afternoon. I hadn’t been down there in years and years and the weekend before, it poured so we our idea of heading over that way got rained out. Located just off the mainland cost of Dunedin and north of Clearwater Beach, Honeymoon Island is […]

And keeping with my effort to take and share more photos, here are a couple I took a few days before the end of the year last year at Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg, Florida. (I think it was December 28th or so that these were taken but I only just got around to sorting […]

Barenaked Ladies played the “Bands, Brew and BBQ” event at Busch Gardens Tampa on Sunday, February 17th and I was lucky enough to get to go see them! I’ve been a fan of Barenaked Ladies (BNL) for years now. I first got to see them open for one of my all-time favorite singers, Sarah McLachlan, […]

Caught this really huge bee happily drinking from a yellow flower this afternoon at the park. The bee was very intent on it’s meal and didn’t mind me pointing my camera at it at all! 😉

Here’s a very Florida moment for you… I’m sitting here on my computer in my master bedroom when I hear a chainsaw turn on. It’s VERY loud and it sounds like it’s right outside my window. So I go peek out and sure enough if there isn’t a guy with a chainsaw, standing on a […]

Well, good old tropical depression #9 has been named now: Isaac. And though it’s early to know with any real certainty where it’s going, current tracks put in on a direct course for Florida. Here’s the National Hurricane Center’s current path prediction: And, even looking at the early spaghetti models, many of them are plotting […]

So many people are so badly mistaken on what programs and options are out there for low income individuals and/or households as it pertains to health care options. I’ve literally lost count of the number of people who “know for a fact” that I and millions like me could have simply qualified for other programs […]

Yesterday the weather was beautiful. The kind of gorgeous day people think Florida always is like but in truth, rarely if ever actually has. It’s normally sweltering by April. But, the temperature was hovering around 80F (26C) and with low humidity plus a breeze, it was just lovely. We wanted to get outside and enjoy […]

Friday I hung out with some of my family at a place called John’s Pass. First, I met up with my Mom. Parked my car at a convenient Target parking lot and then we drove to my sister’s. Picked her up. Then we went to my Aunt’s condo. (She lives in NJ but they got […]

Man, I don’t know what gives lately but the last few days my nose will NOT stop being all stuffy! I’ve been blowing it non-stop and it just keeps right on coming. I can’t breathe so it’s hard to sleep and it hits in waves and when it does, I’m just miserable. Pollen counts only […]
