Aging is a humbling experience

by Pam Sievers 26 Comments

I'm headed to my first Road Scholar experience next week, and I couldn't be more excited. Are you familiar with the program? Their mission is to inspire adults to learn, discover and travel. It used to be called Elderhostel and I first became aware of the program 35 years ago when my aunt went on a couple of trips. They were of course, for old people. https://www.roadscholar.org/ Aging is a humbling experience, isn't it? And now I'm going on a trip for old people. You get the Continue Reading

My Night with the Psychic

by Pam Sievers 13 Comments

A week ago, I was part of a large audience (200-300 people) who had each plunked down some cash to hear Mollie Morning Star. Yes, that’s her real name. And I’m not sure if hear is the correct word. Maybe see, definitely experience. It was part of the book festival I was attending in my small Wisconsin hometown. When my sister asked me if I wanted to go, I didn't hesitate. This would be great writing material. Plus we were both interested in seeing the lovingly restored Temple Theater where I Continue Reading

Spring Training – Long Gone

by Pam Sievers 10 Comments

Baseball. A long-time sign of spring as much as early crocus, sneezing, and if you live in the north, a snowstorm. The crocuses will make way for other plants, the sneezing will wane, and the snow will melt. But baseball is just getting started and for the month of March, spring training is our tease of the promise our favorite teams might hold for the upcoming season.  I have just concluded my first year as a volunteer at the Surprise, Arizona ballpark, spring home of the Kansas Continue Reading

The delicate art of gift giving

by Pam Sievers 7 Comments

Ahhh, the holiday season. That special time of year when too many people over-stress, over-shop, and over-spend, all for the sake of giving the perfect gifts. Do we select a gift from a mass-produced list that goes to other family members, or perhaps something a bit more special? Maybe we chose something the gift receiver wouldn’t purchase, or an item they didn’t even know they needed, but we wanted to buy. Maybe the question to ask is “why am I giving this gift in the first place, and what Continue Reading

Welcome to my website!


Welcome to my website where my goal was to fill the pages with writing that induces gut wrenching laughs. Since I have no spouse, in-laws, children, grandchildren or pets, I have to work a whole lot harder than most humor writers. Hence, instead you’ll find a blog that features travel, contemplative reflections, and of course some humor – you can’t embrace middle age without it. When not writing, I enjoy quilting, learning about other cultures, and living in the Arizona desert.
