New York City, part 1

by Pam Sievers 10 Comments

What started out as a simple search has turned into what is sure to be a comedy, unfolding later this week. Kathy and I are headed to New York City for a few days and when hotel suggestions from various friends didn’t pan out, we turned to our well-trusted travel agent, Joy. I know, I know – should have gone there first. She had lots of ideas for us, so we scheduled an appointment in her office. The conversation went like this. Enthusiastic Joy: “I’ve got just the perfect place for the two of Continue Reading

Ten Lines a Bobbin’

by Pam Sievers 12 Comments

The world would be a better place if we had more fishermen and women, I am convinced of it. Especially if they're like my friend, Ron, and his long time fishing buddy, Henry. It doesn't matter how much patience you have, how many gizmos and gadgets you buy, or how many rods you cast, you still have minimal control on the outcome. Yet, at the next opportunity, you are ready to go out again. More of us need to be content with knowing we cannot control the outcome, no matter how hard we try and how Continue Reading

Two Down…

One hundred and one, you never looked so good. When I started My Patchwork Journey, my goal was a weekly post for two years. Could I do it? Well, I didn’t exactly hit that mark, or this would be my 104th post. But am I happy with 101? You bet. Am I happy I made it two years? Absolutely. (I had this ready to go for 100, but then Ryan Lochte gave me inspiration that needed to be dealt with last week.) Thank you for going on this journey with me. It’s always an anxious moment when I hit the Continue Reading

Unless you’ve been living in the woods for a week, you know the story of Ryan Lochte, 32, and his buds, Jimmy, 26, Jack, 21, and Gunner, 20. And if you are a parent getting ready to send your child off to school, from kindergarten to college, you need to write Ryan a letter of thanks. When is the last time we’ve seen a single situation provide so many defining lessons about decision making and consequences, doing the right thing, and qualities of a friend? He's made Parenting 101 so much easier 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.
