Holidays to balance out your hot and sticky summer! Thank heavens, too -- we all need something other than air conditioners, swimming pools, and ice-cold lemonade to keep us afloat as we roast. (Though honestly, none of those are all that bad.) Nothing for us Pagans this month, but still plenty to go around! A very happy holiday to anyone observing this month. :) Like the ones in February … [Read more...]

We got a letter last week from the HOA about our "dead foliage" in the front yard.

Like the one in February, below is the section of the email sent to all NASA Goddard employees this morning with the holidays for the month of April, including some links at … [Read more...]
NASA Goddard encourages and celebrates different faiths.

On the first of every month, my husband's employer (NASA Goddard) sends out an email with activities and events going on at the Center, including a list of all the celebrations for that month.
