Carnivore Dreams – Obamacare–Capital Gains

Well, it's a nightmare.  Years ago my husband and I were separated for a couple years.  We ended up putting things back together but by then he was working downstate and I was teaching at Northern Michigan University.  So we had separate residences.  My school loan repayment is based on my income alone because we …

Carnivore Dreams – Gratitude

If you've been following my blog the last week or so, you know I de-activated my Facebook account because I was sick of the political barrage even from my closest friends.  And of course, you know of my challenges taking care of my dad with Parkinson's, my son with Down Syndrome.  I noted that I …

Carnivore Dreams – Facebook

Last night I temporarily suspended my Facebook account.  I think I might do it permanently. And I'm on the fence about blogging.  I understand from other bloggers that they get attacked, stalked, extorted and more if they get any kind of a following.  So far, nothing like that has happened to me on WordPress.  And …

Carnivore Dreams -Atlas Shrugs

I should start by telling you that I never post political stuff on my Facebook site because it is not personal like a blog post.  And people do not post in depth carefully thought out positions.  And they are not truly trying to persuade folks, but instead poke them in the chest.  Facebook should be …

Carnivore Dreams – Let Go

I think the hardest thing in life is to balance "caring" about people and circumstances with "who gives a shit."  The latter impulse normally comes because the former is usually closer to the truth.  If you didn't "care" you probably wouldn't have to entertain the "fine art of not giving a fuck."  Some book my …

Carnivore Dreams – Shirred Eggs

This isn't a photo of my shirred eggs because I forgot to take a picture.  Will remedy sometime soon.  Mine look much better since they have cheese. But it gives you an idea of the ramekin/oven -ready soup bowl size to use. This is a totally carnivore recipe and it's fabulous: Ingredients for two servings …

Carnivore Dreams – Better

A thought for the day --  dreams (both in a sleep sense and in aspiration sense) are so integral to the human condition that we can't exist without either. Funny that dreams (in the sense of hopes and desires) is the same word as the one that describes how we spend 1/3 or more of …

Carnivore Dreams – Perspective

Hm, I am not quite sure that at your low point you aren't still alone and distinct from others--sometimes it doesn't seem to matter whether you're on that mountain or in that swamp with the frogs--you still feel alone.  And maybe more alone down there because at least you can see the horizon from that …

Carnivore Dreams – Still

Struggling still--but thinking about you all.  Instead of writing, I've been reading--loving notes from my good friends, the blogs I follow--and they have been helpful... It's a white world, snowing steadily but peacefully.
