By Lucy It was still raining when I woke up the next morning. It occurred to me that I could possibly ask Ethan or Gary for a ride, but then there would be the issue of trying to get home as well. I mulled it over as I ate breakfast, and decided against it. I…

By Lucy Apologies for the lateness of this post! The internet, cell or wifi, would not behave so I could upload pictures! Saturday morning, I slept in. Not that I was really hurting for sleep, I’ve fallen asleep easily here. According to my Fitbit, I’m not even thrashing around like usual. I feel really healthy,…

By Lucy The rest of the week continued in roughly that pattern. I rise around 7, had breakfast, and around 8:30 go out to feed the chickens. Simonetta is not a morning person, and I don’t want to intrude on her space too early, so I make myself wait for 8:30. I sleep well, usually…

By Lucy I drove down a country lane, flanked on both sides by towering Douglas firs and bushes taller than my head, heavy with bright red tropical flowers. A trim lawn flowed away on either side. Eventually I came up to a large, white country house. There was a 20-something year old man slumped in…

By Lucy Apparently, not even the 72 hours with a lack of good sleep and being on a different continent and in a different hemisphere were not enough to prevent me from waking at 7 in the morning. I groaned as I checked my phone. Unfortunately, there was no prospect of rolling back over and…

By Lucy Note: I am writing this at the airport, very jet-lagged. Also my phone changed the dates and times of everything. I might get confused! I woke up Wednesday morning still with a moderate headache. Grumble. I decided to do nothing much on Wednesday. I sat around my room and picked away at the…

By Lucy Saturday was my first all-day race, ostensibly around Pie Island. We were warned that we might be out ’til dark, depending on how the wind behaves, so after I had breakfast I ran to the store and grabbed a Gatorade. I packed a sandwich, a bagel, the Gatorade, my bottle of green tea,…

By Lucy So, for all those who don’t (somehow) know, I regularly use “QueenLuci” as a screen name. It started as a joke half my lifetime ago, when I was 14, honestly almost intended as a placeholder until I found something more clever. When you voice-chat with people you don’t know while gaming, people will…

By Lucy Thursday evening we had a little virtual get-together on the new Discord server. We played Putt Party and later some Jackbox. We had 7 or 8 people at one point, the call lasted 4 hours. Someone mentioned a death in the family and Kevin mentioned his cat has passed away. The casual way…
