An ENFP living in a world of possibilities and fun
Now that I have your attention. Has anyone else noticed that the typical blogging model has defaulted into compiling a list of things: 3 you must know or 5 things you must do? It seems that so many posts use this format to lure readers. I have used it myself although I try not to overdo it. However, […]
How many of you have “invent something” on your bucket list? Well my friend and former colleague, Carmen Bradbury and I can check this off our lists. Behold the Bradbury-Holm Communication device. This device was created to address the needs of a patient who had unclear yes-no responses, relying on eye blinks to get her […]
Once upon a time, in 1976, my father wrote me a letter because I wasn’t taking school too seriously. In the letter he stated, “But there is a second and maybe more important reason for studying hard. The more you study and learn, the more your mind will expand to look at life a little differently […]
Molly’s Rude Awakening is an unexpected delight in Black River Falls, Wisconsin. For over 25 years, I have traveled Interstate 94 between my home in Minnesota and points east, especially 50 or more trips to Detroit where I grew up. I thought I knew every gas station, restaurant, coffee shop, and convenience store along […]
I resolved to skydive to celebrate my 50th birthday despite being a dedicated fear of heights chicken. On my 45th birthday, I vowed, after jumping off of a 32 foot cliff in Jamaica, that I would skydive next.

To the honorable Gregory Huszczo, you have won the bet, Green One. As an honorable Wolverine, I am a woman of my word. So it is that I wear this State hat and hold the Spartan sweatshirt close to my heart. What’s more, I consider myself fortunate that my best friend is married to a Spartan, […]
Every time I hear the song Who’ll Stop the Rain by Credence Clearwater Revival, I think of Dennis. I knew him many years ago in Arizona. I had taken my first job as a speech pathologist and he was one of my first clients. Our first appointment was in the late afternoon when almost everyone […]
My youngest child graduated from high school last night. As for all mothers facing the empty nest, this was a defining moment in my life. My children were always my #1 priority especially since my husband’s job limited his time at home. I spent many hours alone-just me and the kids. I did work as a […]
Why glorify the mouse? First let me set the context that compelled me to write about this today. This afternoon, my internet repair person told me that I had had unreliable service for the past several weeks because mice had chewed through my cable (on the outside of my house and not the inside, thank […]
