I’m on my way to the last yoga class I’ll teach this semester at the university. I’m really hoping that I’ll have actual participants today; it’s not unusual for university yoga classes to be lightly populated, particularly on a lovely, sunny, moderately warm Saturday morning at the end of the semester. It’s highly [...]

The scene: Saturday morning. I’m in bed reading (A Dry White Season, if you’re curious). My beloved husband is sitting next to me tapping away on his laptop when he turns to me and asks “do you want to buy a cooktop today?”
Sorry?! Are you kidding?! You really think you [...]

I buy books.
Bowyer and I spent part of yesterday afternoon together. He brought me to his favorite used book store. It’s a place I never would have thought to go into without being told how wonderful it is; it’s a little hole-in-the-wall tucked into a nearly abandoned, 1970’s era strip mall. It’s [...]

PunkinPie had her first sleep-over last night.
Well, TECHNICALLY, it’s not her FIRST sleep-over. She’s stayed overnight at Bowyer’s place a bunch of times, but Bowyer is family, so that doesn’t really count.
Anyway, she was wildly excited about the whole thing. Her little girlfriend called her on Friday to invite her to stay over [...]

…these words were spoken to me yesterday by someone I love very much, someone who’s going through something difficult and painful and awful. While I’m so sorry my friend has to go through this, I am so glad that my friend recognizes that I’m here. Being there is one of the things I [...]

Spring is starting to show herself around these parts. The only signs I can show you as yet are of the forsythia bush in the side yard…
…and the daylilies are starting to push through last fall’s leaves…
…oh, and this is a clump of what will eventually be violets. I’m excited to see them; [...]

Ok, you all know that I’m not one to tackle political issues here at Blue Door. Politics generally aren’t my thing and I’m usually happy going quietly about, holding certain, what would likely be described as liberal beliefs, and voting when the time comes.
The question of immigration policy has been raised to me by [...]

Husband’s cousin is getting married in July and has asked the ladies to be her flower girls. I posted a while ago about this, after having found some adorable dresses for not-too-much money, where I expressed the hope that Cousin would like the dresses enough to allow the girls to wear them at the [...]

I know, I know; it’s been a while since I’ve posted pictures of the progress in the kitchen. Sorry - I’ve been busy.
This is the view you’ve all seen before, but not with the fridge put back where it belongs. We’ve decided that we’re going to replace the fridge - eventually - with [...]
