Heather Leigh, Author. Thursday, November 24, 2016. A Smidge of Thankful Things. I am thankful for the shower curtain that broke my fall. Living in the Pacific Northwest, rainy nights are a part of the package of living in a plush, green, grand scenery. Rain = grass and super tall trees and flowers and moss. Even the ten minute ride to work is like traveling in a gorgeous landscape calendar. And so, the night before the shower curtain incident, it came as a revelation that. View my complete profile.

Heather Leigh, Author: App Voting
http://heatherleighauthor.blogspot.com/2016/11/app-voting.html
Heather Leigh, Author. Monday, November 7, 2016. At least there is something that I do know that I want: A phone app that will show me the outcome of every possible choice that I can think of. Do you know where I could get one? Having to help me navigate my way through my Smart Phone, I feel that asking to be taught about apps would push them over the edge in teaching-mother-another-techno-thing. I love them too much to see their powers put to the test to such an extent. There may be hope for me, even yet.

Heather Leigh, Author. Thursday, June 16, 2016. Pooh And IRS Ettiquette. Why do people leave the bathroom door open just a crack after they've poohed? All other times, it's wide open and welcoming. Do they think the scent flushes away with the toilet? Because it does not. What does happen is that when I open the door to do my thing, I am smashed in the nose with someone else's left overs. Those IRS folks so live up to their name: IRService. They just know how to serve the public. They do us proud. Here i...

Heather Leigh, Author. Tuesday, February 23, 2016. I have a serious problem and I don't want anyone telling me this is no big deal. Our dogs love fruits and vegetables. I can hear what you are thinking: healthy animals are a good thing. Their diet choices keep them away from illness, the vet, diarrhea issues, whatever. Well, that is all good for those canines- but what about me? The California Cuties, mandarin oranges, are in season (are they only available in California? There is also no fairness with t...

Heather Leigh, Author. Friday, December 23, 2016. There are two main universal questions about animals, neither of which will likely ever be completely answered:. Are the tree frogs in our front yard croaking solo or in harmony? Harmony Argument: Darwin taught us that evolution has brought us a race of Super Singers who are able to croak in unison. Anyone who cannot detect that the noises collected are several at once, do not deserve their own listening skill. After millions of generations of gre...Oh, e...

Heather Leigh, Author. Tuesday, November 1, 2016. I've been searching the internet to discover who said that the artist needs to be in the ocean, just past the spot where his/her feet touch the sand. It is from this uncomfortable zone that creativity seeps in. The words are written from my memory- nothing is exact. Pretty sure it was David Bowie. It certainly was how he lived his ever-changing career life. Where is the light at the end of the tunnel? Where is the rope to pull me out of the well? It took ...

Heather Leigh, Author. Sunday, July 31, 2016. A Different Outcome in 1492. In fourteen ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. And on that same day, Chief Trump had a Vision. What he saw filled him with fear and anger. So he called together the people of land. The Chief shared his vision of the future:. Most of us will die. The land will be destroyed. Water will be unsafe to drink; air clogged in smoke. The people huddled together, shrinking from this future. Is there nothing we can do? If you know m...

http://heatherleighauthor.blogspot.com/2017/01/cold-geese-words.html
Heather Leigh, Author. Sunday, January 1, 2017. The Webster's Universal Dictionary on my desk has over nine hundred pages of word definitions. That means, a whole heck of a lot of people got to think up new words, and get them published into a respected book that makes the words legitimate. These aren't slang words that only last a season or two, like twirking, which I still don't fully understand nor do I want to. Here is my list:. Maswon, verb. An intellectual wondering as to why I do not have a ma...

Heather Leigh, Author. Tuesday, October 25, 2016. What happens when you cook long grain brown rice with short grain? Well, since you are gasping out the desire to know, I'll tell you. You get a mixture of rice sizes with no taste difference. This was a huge dilemma last night. We had half cup of long left in the cupboard, and a big bag of the puny pieced ones. I had to take the risk- I was craving rice! Good, my work here is done. Yes, just like that. Poof! Presently, I am eking out the rough draft of my...
