Isle Royale Musings, Part 3

July 18, 2013 By Gail

The tabloids use exclamation points and a bold font:  STARS WITHOUT MAKEUP!  SEE PHOTOS!!!!  I always struggle, as I stand in line at the grocery checkout, as to whether I want to look.  Part of me is curious how the fashion icons appear without the artistry of makeup professionals and airbrushing.  Part of me says, “Why should it matter?

I was having a “feeling frumpy” day.  My hair kept heading off in directions known only to ancient gods and winged animals, my Spanx groaned as I pulled them up and made a snarky comment about “only being able to do so much,” and my freshly painted fingernails, barely dry, hosted multiple dings, smears, and chips.  (Life lesson #76: Don’t… Read More

One Bee or Not Two Bee(s)

June 25, 2013 By Gail

Why? Why do I jump into things without thinking them through?  I’m going to blame my Bohemian blood unless someone can prove otherwise. The local county fair is, disturbingly, only a few weeks away.  For those who choose to enter flowers, for example, it is going to be tough year.  My garden calla lilies are about an inch high at… Read More
