The Hit List – Invasive weeds

by | Apr 11, 2026 | The Hit List

Although I’m no green thumb, I do know a little bit about gardening. As a child, I was often tasked with helping Dad plant seeds and pull weeds. My husband is also an avid gardener, so I learned plenty about plants from him, too. (They are both Virgos, by the way.)  I...

The Hit List – What I keep in my bag

My mother enrolled me in Brownies. I’m not sure why she did. I never showed interest in the outdoors, and I was a lone wolf. Selling cookies? I’d rather hide in a pillow fort with a stack of books. Perhaps on some level, she thought this was the right thing to do. Or...

The other day, I went down an internet rabbit hole. I was chasing a salacious story (won’t get into it here) and needed to know the details. While it made for riveting reading, something happened along the way.  I started to feel gross. Maybe that’s not the right...

There is a statement about Wisconsin that holds true: if you don’t like the weather, just wait – it will change. The other day was sunny with mild temperatures. After a snowy, cold winter, this felt like a gentle nudge from the gods. Spring is on the way! That...

The Hit List – Guarantees

When the world seems to be falling apart like a wet dishrag, people often turn to tarot readers, astrologers, and psychics for guidance. The most asked question: “will we be okay?” My answer isn’t a cozy or comforting one. “Some people will be okay. Others won’t.”...

The Hit List – The old friend zone

by | Feb 28, 2026 | The Hit List

Getting older means wrinkles, gray hair, candy dishes, and wisdom. It also means a smaller social circle. In the past few years, mine has shrunk. This is partly due to some friends passing away. Two in the last year alone. It’s surreal to think I’ll never talk to them...
