Ghouls Night Out
(The Cubbyhole Writer has been juggling a few projects in the air of late, so regular posts have been a difficult task. I hope the calendar will finally allow me more time to re-connect with my readers and followers. Thanks for hangin’ in with me!) Somewhere between being mesmerized by the glorious autumnal displays of […]
The Rabbit Hole of Aging
September 30, 2013
It’s a curious thing, getting older. When we’re in our teen years, we so badly want to be older because there are adventures waiting for us. Years go by and adventures do happen. It’s not until middle-age that we notice just how similar we’ve become to our parents, the good and the bad parts. The crazy roller-coaster of life is […]
A Lesson in People Watching
July 7, 2013
Like the Dark Shadow, you may not detect me, but I’ll be watching you. It sounds a little creepy, but it’s certainly not new. People-watching has been around as long as Adam and Eve and it’s at the core of human curiosity. Throughout our entire lives we are “checking out the other guy”, probing them, […]
Showing Signs of Rust
May 15, 2013
(I have been in “stealth mode” the last couple of weeks, dealing with a few “smoldering fires” on the personal front. I can say that sometimes having an unscheduled break in the routine causes some reflection of the routine as a whole, the future. I am happy to say that the Cubbyholewriter is back at the computer […]
Moustaches – On Demand – for a Loonie
April 30, 2013
When I was a small child and learned to appreciate the smallest treasures, it was over-the-moon exciting to plop that dime or quarter into the coin slot, give the knob a good crank and peek into the drop cavity for a gum ball, a plastic novelty, or perhaps a handful of penny candy. I was too […]
Not theYellow Ribbon I’d Expected
April 22, 2013
I hate it when somebody bursts that fragile, romantic bubble I attach to songs, places, etc. For instance, the other day Hubby and I were enjoying a cool beverage in the warm sunshine (hooray, finally) and listening to the oldies channel of our favourite 70’s tunes, when a real blast from the past started to play. […]
Ahead of My Time
April 6, 2013
It’s not that unusual to lose track of the time when faced with a full schedule. I’m rarely late for appointments, something I value in other people too. Given a choice, it’s better to lose track of the time when having fun. This week, however, I lost track of multiple appointments over a couple of days – […]
Spring is Riz – and This is How the Garden Iz
April 2, 2013
“There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story.” – Linda Hogan Alleluia, the waiting seems to finally be over! Not only has Easter been a celebration of joy and rebirth, but Spring has also arrived […]
And Baby Takes the Prize
March 25, 2013
As someone who has been out of the loop as far as attending baby showers up until two years ago, and having recently attended another one, I observed a few interesting changes in the whole affair. While there’s nothing wrong with the traditional way of gathering women friends and relatives together to coo over the new […]
