A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. Day: August 9, 2015. Laying Claim to Seniorhood. August 9, 2015. Realized I had entered ‘seniorhood’ when:. The ‘man’ who came to fix the furnace looked like he was 16. Every Peanut Butter M&M I eat adds a pound to my middle. No matter what the exercise and/or diet, the middle has decided to take up permanent residency. What was it you said to me 10 minutes ago? My legs have taken on the role of roadmap they can get you anywhere in the world! A Little Bit Softer Now.

A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. Little Lucky, Please be Lucky. May 19, 2015.

A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. Things I Know My Kids Never Will. January 14, 2015. On winter afternoons my mind often wanders to the warmth of treasured memories, to places and things my kids never knew and for that I feel sad. Hot summer days, sitting under the elm tree in our front yard, cutting out the latest fashions to dress my paper dolls in: I can almost smell the grass and hear the cicadas as I dreamily float through this memory. Similar were Color-forms! You Are What You Write. Tammie R...

A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. Lure of Whittier, Alaska. February 21, 2015. There’s a little city on Prince William Sound in Alaska called Whittier. Its population is approximately 200, and of those, 75 percent live together in a 14-story high rise named Begich Towers. But not only do most of the town’s people live in the towers, so do most of its municipal services as well as a laundromat, small convenience store and even a school. Do the people socialize? Do they get sick of each other? Fill i...

A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. The Lifespan of a Mosquito. July 17, 2015. I am obsessed with mosquitos as of late and it’s because they are. Inside, outside, and all places in between. They follow you, stake you out, and feast on whatever unfortunate part of your body happens to be exposed. The average life span of a mosquito is two months. (Less if you’re in my house being chased down by a madly swinging fly swatter). A mosquito is a mosquito is a mosquito, right? So the next time a mosquito bu...

A Grass-Roots Blog Restoration Project. Cataract Beer and Beefsteak Tomatos. June 11, 2015. I can’t see. That’s a fine cup of tea for a writer/reader/teacher. (And I do, BTW, like tea). A few years ago I had cataract surgery. (Did you know there was once a beer named Cataract? Eye number one was operated on in February, and eye two is scheduled for next week. I am so desperate to see that I don’t even care about having my head immobilized while this incredibly intense light (laser) burns away all tha...
