Quite awhile ago, I wrote a post about compliments. If I could find/remember (ha!) my log-in for my old blog, I could hook you up with a link. I remember I got a ton of comments that day and we all enjoyed that huggy, smiley, glad-I-came-here kind of feeling. I’m going to aim that high [...]

One Wink at a Time has not been such a fun place lately. I need to do something about that. I will. Give me a little while to come up with something. Any suggestions for a feature or something everybody might be interested in? Remember way back when, I used [...]

Today was not such a good day. My workday consisted of performing an 8-hour series of mindless tasks. Which afforded me 8 hours of thinking time. Ordinarily I might welcome that kind of day but today, not so much. I’m not sure whether to blame it on the cold meds I’m [...]

Okay, so maybe I had the means to post while in NY but not the inclination. I was busy reading assorted books with Julian, having tea with Madeline and dancing with Drew. We had a really nice time with the JuJu’s despite the cold temperatures and the speed with which the weekend flew. It seemed [...]

Packing up and heading North for the weekend. Despite the foreboding weather forecast which is calling for snow, snow, and more snow.
Note to self: Pack long underwear, mittens, and those nifty little hand-warmer gel-pak thingies.
See you Tuesday. Oh wait! I have a laptop now. Maybe before that

Some of my angst is a result of conflicting emotions. That’s nothing new for me, I can remember feeling “torn” for most of my life. One of the reasons I have such a hard time making decisions is that because most of the time I can see both sides of every issue. [...]

My daughter, (referred to here most oftenly as) JuJu, rolls her eyes at my fascination with coincidences. I experience them on an uncannily frequent basis and while I don’t share every single one, I do tend to gush over the truly freaky ones. Freaky in my opinion, anyway.
Well, it just so happens that [...]

I’m going to preface my next post by sharing some Pisces indications courtesy of Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs. I’m sharing to give you some very accurate insight to my personality for those who do and don’t know me so well. It’s kind of a way of giving you some background so’s you know [...]

I can’t even sit still when I’m basking in the sun on the beach. I think that makes me some kind of anti-relaxation freak.
Two years ago, vacationing at Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, I put together this little pebble composition in the sand by my towel. I’m glad I took a picture of it. [...]

Last week I started sharing some uncomfortable feelings I’ve been having. It may have sounded like depression to some. And while it is depressing, it’s sort of a cycle that I get sucked into every so often. Not sure what a counselor might have to say about it but I’m pretty sure [...]

It’s setting in. I feel it. No more Christmas cards in the mail. Just bills. No more yummy homemade cookies in the cupboard. Just Oreos. No good excuses to pour a drink. Except maybe ennui. No more pretty packages to open. Just trying to find a [...]
