In My Write Mind: August 2009
http://columnbee.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
In My Write Mind. Monday, August 24, 2009. 8220;Enough is enough,” my parents used to say. When I was a kid I thought the phrase meant something like ‘good grief.’ Now I understand it better. In fact, my daily life is filled with examples that compel me to utter, as my parents did, “Enough is enough! Instead, the weather report is like an involuntary college course, sandwiched between tidbits of actual news. And when you hear an awkward transition or lame pun, you know the course is about to begin. If I ...

Mortensen Moments: We Have Some More Excitement
http://tkdmoments.blogspot.com/2015/02/we-have-some-more-excitement.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2015. We Have Some More Excitement. We have been having a little excitement around here. The other day there were 3 police cars in front of our neighbors house. Tom went over and found out that they had been evicted for not paying the rent since October. On a brighter note we are also getting the house painted. I would have pictures but it is dark right now. It is looking good. Posted by Karen Mortensen. Neighbors can be very interesting…. So what color is the new paint? Nate and ...

In My Write Mind: I say I like Autumn
http://columnbee.blogspot.com/2010/12/i-say-i-like-autumn.html

Although Christmas is upon us, my recent purse-cleaning produced a poem scrawled on the back of a "Conferencias de Padres/Maestros" reminder. It's undated, but was clearly inspired by the brilliant autumn colors that graced Chico a couple of months ago. I SAY I LIKE AUTUMN. Spring, for many, is a hopeful time. And why shouldn't it be? Loather of perspiration,.

In My Write Mind: December 2008
http://columnbee.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
In My Write Mind. Sunday, December 14, 2008. Memorable Scene of Christmas Cheer. We’re all familiar with the artwork of Norman Rockwell. He gives us idyllic images of Christmas cheer wherein familial joy and the scent of home-baked cookies actually waft off the canvas. In MY reality, the source of any wafting scent is usually a diaper. Well, so what if we’re no Rockwell painting? Memorable scenes of Christmas cheer happen to be our specialty. Feeling sheepish, but never losing his “can-do” at...8221; I o...
