Nobody panic! No, COVID-15 is not a new strain of the COVID-19 flu. COVID-15 is the 15 pounds gained during the quarantine. All that gourmet cooking that I learned to do, all the wine pairings I attempted (several times), and all those Quarantinis 🍸 that I experimented with, and all that time I spent watchingContinue reading “I HAVE COVID-15 😮”

While I’ve been on this sort of QuaranCamino I’ve been thinking a lot about the Camino I walked last year. Bits and pieces come back to me and make me smile. These thoughts remind me that although this QuaranCamino is not the one I would have chosen, nonetheless it’s the one I’m on. One ofContinue reading “THE BREAD OF LIFE”

There’s a website with an accompanying Facebook page called “Sad Jesus”. Sad Jesus has a lot of followers on Facebook including many of my friends. Sad Jesus proclaims that… Saddened by the ever encroaching darkness, Sad Jesus seeks to bring light, name darkness, comfort the broken, and afflict the comfortable who think they have allContinue reading “WHO WALKS WITH YOU ON THE CAMINO?”

Last night we ate at this fabulous little restaurant near by. We’ve actually eaten there quite a bit since this quarantine began. It’s called The Dining Room. The menu is limited but still very good. There are two chefs and they both do the serving. The lasagna and the fettuccine Alfredo are the best I’veContinue reading “A FABULOUS RESTAURANT NEAR BY”

I have been thinking of how the quarantine is like the camino. This is a journey. A journey like no other. An opportunity, a struggle, a seemingly impossible task. Sometimes you are alone on your walk. Sometimes you are with others. Always whether alone or not you are on this journey with a host ofContinue reading “QuaranCamino”

I know, you’re sick (no pun intended) of the coronavirus and I’m sick of it too. However I am choosing to try and maintain a positive attitude about it. The Camino was for me a very positive time. Even when it was tough to walk somehow it was better to choose to be happy becauseContinue reading “WHAT THE CAMINO TAUGHT ME ABOUT THE CORONAVIRUS”

Hello Friends I pray you are all having a blessed day. I am having a wonderful and quiet day. Last night was filled with family, food, laughter, presents and just the right amount of wine. But there was one present today for me. No one else would call this a present, but I do 😉Continue reading “MERRY CHRISTMAS”

Today I am out of the house and “working” at the library. It’s all fine and well to cocoon at home, but the time has come for me to emerge and return to the world. I can still bring the camino with me. It’s also time for me to stop avoiding this blog community, allContinue reading “POST CAMINO REFLECTION #7”

Today I am out of the house, in my workout clothes (including my Camino trail runners), and am about to begin walking the track. This is a big deal for me. For so long I have sequestered myself in the house venturing out only when absolutely necessary. It’s not as though I have become anContinue reading “Post Camino reflection #6”

Tomorrow will be the one month anniversary of my return to my home. I’m in much the same spot I was one month before I left for the Camino. I rarely leave the house unless there is a really compelling reason like seeing our new granddaughter or going to the grocery because cereal for dinnerContinue reading “POST CAMINO REFLECTION #5”
