Monday Musings: Stuff and Nonsense

~ M.A. Kropp

We added a wreath on the door to our Christmas decorations this year. We'd looked at some earlier, but anything that was more than a couple pine cones stuck into the side and one of those red-flocked bows was really, really pricey. I knew I could make one cheaper. We got a really good deal … Continue reading Monday Musings: Stuff and Nonsense

Friday (Movie) Review: Dr. Strange

~ M.A. Kropp

My rating: 4 of 5 stars I went to see Dr. Strange with Stephanie on Wednesday. Overall impression? It was good!

Post Election Day. Not Post-Mortem.

~ M.A. Kropp

It took me a long time to decide what to say about yesterday. It was such a jumble of emotions and thoughts that I needed time to process and untangle.

Monday Musings: Election Eve Thoughts
