After three weeks vacation, the inevitable refrain from many colleagues upon my return was, “Tough to come back, eh?” But the thing is, every time someone said that, I thought, “Not really.” Now, don’t get me wrong – I had a super fantastic vacation and am already dreaming up ideas for my next trip. But […]
My friend Heather ((Who happens to read all my footnotes, just like Martha and Loren! And Kalev too!)) gave me a very thoughtful present – a frog that turns into a prince ((Which, of course, is a pretty darn good present for a frog lover who is looking for a prince!))! Isn’t this a cute […]

One of the things I got for Christmas was this tea towel ((OK, not that exact tea towel, as that is actually a photo I stole off the Baited Hook website, because I’m lazy and it’s easier than taking a photo of my own tea towel and uploading it)): My mom gave me – and […]
I have just realized that I haven’t posted anything about my birthday – well, other than posting on Bethmas Eve. As it turns out, I was just having too much fun celebrating my 36th trip ((Also known as 62. Because who doesn’t love a number that’s a perfect square?)) around the sun to post anything! On […]

I arrived home today to find the following postcard in my mailbox: Thanks, Dr. Dan!
