before I start-3 important disclaimers: #1.It is NOT spring yet. Oh come on- I know that. but soon it will be- and I may have told you before- I am one of those strange people that prepares for every situation. I don’t appreciate surprises.

Running errands as an introvert!
A few days ago, I was talking to my good friend (we go back more than 25 years of blood sweat &tears at work, and kept our friendship through retirement), and she has this thing where she insists on talking with me when she runs errands around town. The thing is, she gets really worked …
Perfecting my on-line grocery shopping skills!
I know- Pfizer+Moderna+Astra-zenica+ more labs are on it- soon everybody will be happily hugging sweaty people they barely know, and everything will be back to normal. But- Us introverts, have believed in social distancing since the stone age, certainly before Covid began, so we needn’t change our non social habits just because vaccinations are in …

Take care of yourself. the rest will follow.
This morning I woke up, and it was chilly, and the mere thought of going out for a run was giving me the shivers. I got up and made myself a cup of strong coffee, filled my hot water bottle and got back to bed to contemplate my next steps. Now I know you may …

“Women despise frugal men”-is that so?
So, I read an article, written by a psychology professor (no less) that claims women loath frugal men, and list them as non- attractive partners. Being a proud frugal +a true believer in seperate accounts as a base line for equality and feminism, I was surprised. To be absolutely honest- the first thing a skeptic …
The lamest frugal advice that can save you money!
My closest friend is a retired lawyer like me.we used to work at the same place for 13 years, then I moved away-but we kept our relationship through thick, and thin. I am telling you this, not because I think this is a valuable piece of information for you, (though- who knows, right?) but because …

Feeling down?put your blues to good use!
Apparently many people are experiencing an existential crisis -or mini-crisis- these days. I can’t say I share the emotions since I had an existential mega-crisis a long time ago, and ever since I am not absolutely sure there is necessarily a meaning to all this, but I try to enjoy the journey nonetheless. This does …
Mirror mirror on the wall- what mirror will make me look better than all?

How I failed my 2020 resolutions on 1/1/20.
I have this tendency to criticize. I guess it is no wonder I worked in the justice department for more than 28 years. Or maybe it goes the other way- maybe I was a happy free spirited holly go-lightly before I started working as a lawyer, and the job- and the horrible things I witnessed …
