I'm with you. Coffee is my favorite flavor. Hot coffee with cream no sugar but iced coffee should have a little sugar. I love to chew on chocolate coffee beans. I don't even get me started on tiramisu....

On National Poetry Day, here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.
The Power of Poetry
 
with things falling apart
and anarchy let loose,
 
it was only poetry, he found,
which had any use,
 
so he reached for his copy  
of The Complete Works of Yeats
 
and bludgeoned the President
of the United States

Nearly a year ago we rescued Tatertot aka Taters. Her elderly owner had passed and family brought their 15 year old cat to the shelter. Taters is now 16 years old, deaf, has very few teeth but this girl purrs so loudly that at times I need to shut my office door.
Picture of elderly tuxedo cat curled on a chair covered with a bluish gray quilt.

Michigan's fall colors certainly are special. That scene in the picture below is on the road up to Copper Harbor at the very tip top of the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan's beautiful and rural Upper Peninsula www.travelandleisure.com/best-state-f... #906Life #PureMichigan

Brian Kozminski of the True North Trout #flyfishing blog just published a review of my survival horror novel, Blood of the Witness Tree. #horrorbooks #horror #Michigan #booksky 💙📚 Check out the review here: truenorthtrout.com/2026/08/bloo...

Blood of the Witness Tree — A Review from the Riverbank | True North Trout
I’ve spent more nights in the Pigeon River Country Forest than I can count—some guiding, some wandering, some just listening to the woods breathe. Anyone who’s spent real time in the PRC knows it’s no...

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title for the first two panels is "Young Me".
In panel one we see a young version of Sarah, the protagonist. She says, "I want to achieve great things".
In panel two we zoom in a little on young Sarah's face. She continues, "An astounding career! An amazing house! World peace!"
The title for the last two panels is "Adult Me".
In panel three we see adult Sarah, looking down.
In panel four we zoom out and see she is in front of a basil plant. She simply says "I want to grow a basil plant".

Pictured of a torn denim heart with the following poem in white print on a blue background:   Tattered   Holes in the knees.  Pocket ripped from the seam.  They slip on her snug.  Comfortable still.  The smell of fresh indigo.  Gleaming copper zipper.  The new weave beckons him while primordial fibers remain.

I've noticed the price of chocolate is crazy but I thought that was because of cocoa beans didn't realize it was because of sugar. Life is so stressful we sugar to de-stress us not increase our stress. 😁

To this day I can't think of Stonington peninsula without smiling. Mountain dew is probably not something to be put into your body but it is handy with forest fires.

I may take a ride this weekend to enjoy. Fun memory. July 1988 & Rapid River was having a forest fire. My high school boyfriend and I drove to Stonington Peninsula. The drive placed us near remains of fire. A lone tree had a small fire. He pulled over to douse it with his can of mountain dew.

3 of these 4 Home Alone 2 actors/actresses have passed away in 2026. I hate that we lost the three that we have. But damn, if we can complete the set before January 1st, that would be something. We have four months to make it happen.

Most definitely have worked on ankle and foot strength because of my tendency to have foot drop. I also get spasticity in my feet so you will often see me rotating my ankles and stretching my toes.
