Still Mad

Once again it has been a while since I have written.  I checked in and the last time I wrote I was mad about politics and I guess months later I am still mad. Not quite sure how to change that.  No one seems to be doing anything about it. I didn’t come to write a “I’m mad about politics post.” I came to write about the year 2020 and how we have finally have reached the “future.”  Well, to me anyway.  

2020 anything when I was little was the future and now that I am here I am amazed I have almost lived a half decade! I can’t wrap my head around that but it’s true, I have lived for a while even though I don’t feel so grown up in my head.  Grown up is my grandparents but even they have all passed away.  My grandmother was 97 last year when her heart gave out and my father's father passed away after an unsuccessful heart surgery to try and fix his heart.  Having them pass did make me sad that I am getting closer to being alone.  

Don’t get me wrong, I have people but as you get older those people pass away and that can be sort of a sad thought if you go there. Anyhoo, 2020 is the future.  It’s kind of a scary one with all that is going on in the world and I hope we come out of it okay but it still boggles the mind how people’s minds are all different.  How we all think different things and ultimately, how we don’t compromise. 

In the year 2020, I thought we have all learned the great humanity lesson and be working together traveling in space like Star Trek. But we have a long way to go and I wonder if I will live to see all the people coming together to be the human race.  Hum. The future.

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

How Was Your Weekend?

Does a Monday morning ever go by without someone asking you how your weekend was? I got to work and was bombarded with the question and this week I didn't have a thing to say. Didn't feel good the whole weekend so we did nothing except managed to go grocery shopping, make a trip to Target and watch several epsiodes of Quantum Leap and Battlestar Gallactica. I found that when you don't have anything to say it's good to have at least a change in your appearance to deflect the pitty looks for not having done anything on your weekend. Luckily, I had a new hair cut and color job so I was able to skip the fact that I didn't have any exciting plans to report. Last week I awoke with that I can't this hair anymore attitude and booked an appointment. I went back to bright blonde as opposed to darker blonde with brown streaks I had for the wedding. It was refreshing to go get your hair done after spending the weekend in pain. Luckily for me, the new hair color must hav...
