Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho & Realtor® Fathom Realty
Sometimes it is difficult to shop for groceries when you’re single. Everything is packaged so darn big. Take for instance, a bag of baby yellow potatoes. It looked so good at the time, but it was 3 lbs. Bought it anyway. Cooked up a portion and put the bag on my counter. I had to... Continue Reading →
I’m baaack! I must admit that the recovery from my January surgery was much more difficult than I had anticipated. Tired, nauseous, tired but I keep reminding myself that my abdominal organs are getting adjusted to how they are supposed to work. During recovery, my days were hectic with real estate, my sister here to... Continue Reading →
What can I say? 2023 was a great year and yet full of surprises mixed with oddities. I don’t want to call those oddities disappointments because they were simply the speed bumps of life. Most of all, I had an exciting year of discovery. It was all about many life changes, too. I had a... Continue Reading →
It is finally snowing here in Southwest Idaho. FINALLY! I like winter, well because let’s face it, I lived in Ketchum when I first moved to Idaho in 1984. When people complain “it’s cold” I remind them that cold is 30 below. I love squash, getting to like carrots even more these days. Never cooked... Continue Reading →
I am promising myself to be better about my blog posting for 2024. I want to be consistent in my weekly posts. Deeper conversations, outrageous humor, recipes I have not yet shared with my readers.

Yes, let’s start the conversation. Let’s add a few other generations, too. I saw a post on Threads yesterday about feminism and women aging. Reading the comments today strikes a similar reply: senior women become invisible. On the other hand, most women commented about using our voices. Yes, that is the solution in a nutshell!...

Okay, confession time. I am angry at Paul for dying. It’s not what you think. Ever since he has been gone, I have been diagnosed with bizarre maladies. Acoustic neuroma. Hiatal hernia. Pulmonary embolism was so critical that the clots clustered in my lungs. Severe sleep apnea. The doctors thought when I had my PE... Continue Reading →
If you live in Boise, Idaho, you may have been a bit frustrated with road closures this summer downtown. Every time I turned a corner, there was a detour sign. {sigh} My sister swears by the app Waze, but I am too lazy to get another app. This summer changed my mind. However, the story...

Recently, I have had clients and friends alike tell me how impressed they were with recent installations of energy efficient heat pumps. Every single person who told me this also mentioned Peppy! Heating & Cooling was their contractor. Well, okay then! I called and asked if I could visit them to learn more. And learn... Continue Reading →
