It is located in the Alberta Arts district and perfect for hitting local pubs and cafes (but why, since you have a kitchen! My introduction ...

pollyanna's world: April 2015
http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
It's all about the Journey. Saturday, April 11, 2015. It's All In Your Head: Fibromyalgia. I have since learned this sensitivity to touch is called Allodynia. Allodynia is a heightened sensitivity to touch, which results in pain from things that normally would not cause discomfort. I simply have said that "my skin hurts.". As you can see, diagnosing this condition is difficult. There are no specific blood tests that go Oh Yeah! I remembered why and where. Exhaustion and depression. I don't want to mo...

pollyanna's world: November 2014
http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
It's all about the Journey. Saturday, November 29, 2014. A Holiday Fair with a Flare of Hail. Yesterday my daughter-in-law and I went to the Christmas Bazaar, an annual tradition for us. Three hours of wandering, greeting people, looking at handicrafts. My daughter-in-law and grandgirl kept moving through the booths twice as fast as me, so I would attach myself to another family and ask if I could adopt them, since my own left me. They all agreed :). One more recipe for delightful pumpkin! 3 points plus ...

pollyanna's world: February 2014
http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
It's all about the Journey. Sunday, February 16, 2014. Needed: Good Geezer Models. I've been thinking about that middle-age thing that happens to many of us. I mean, what is a “midlife crisis” and what does it mean? Well I think there is not much we can do if we are going to have a midlife crisis. It either is or it isn’t (and all that in between). I think more importantly to us at this age is this:. We need good geezer models. Now we have to also create our own geezer models? Growing older with dignity ...

http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2015/05/fossilizing-in-fossil-oregon.html
It's all about the Journey. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Fossilizing in Fossil, Oregon. Thirty-five years ago I was an undergraduate student at Portland State University. I was enrolled in six or seven classes, one being Geology. I kinda liked playing in the dirt a bit, so I decided to take some extra 1-credit weekend classes. Field trip classes. The leaders finally relented and we headed home, taking the shortest route. We headed north to I-84 and straight on to Portland. We stopped for a rest in Bigg...I lea...

pollyanna's world: What is Privilege?
http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2015/07/what-is-privilege.html
It's all about the Journey. Monday, July 20, 2015. I have been thinking a lot about privilege lately. Who has it. Who doesn't have it. What it is actually about. I have taught Speech Communication for thirty-five years and talked about communication and gender, communication and race, communication and obesity, communication and disabilities. I have come to understand what is privilege.I thought. It was all about being white, right? And male. White male. Here is the video that caught me up. The full ...

It's all about the Journey. Friday, January 30, 2015. Woke up this morning to fog. We have been having fog many mornings.

Tule fog in Central California. Thursday, January 29, 2015. Throwback Thursday: My First Quilt. Christmas 1972 Grants Pass, Oregon. Now I told you about Grants Pass because I thought I was living there when ...

http://roadbabe.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
It's all about the Journey. Friday, March 06, 2015. I know, right? It was a good flight on the way home from Southern California last Saturday morning. By "good flight" I mean I had enough room to sit and sew my English paper pieces, read my NOOK, and sip some Diet Coke. My seatmate was kind and quiet and slept most the way. Since I was ill with a cold, I had promised her I wouldn't breathe in her direction. I know, right? Facebook has a site with this title. I know, right? Wednesday, March 04, 2015.
