Posted on June 27, 2020 by Valerie Ing

I don’t know why people make such a big deal out of this. Honestly, so far, preparing for my colonoscopy has been a breeze. I’ll admit that I’ve been feeling sort of, well, guilty for the past couple of days… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: Getting Older Ain’t Much Fun … But At Least I’m Getting Older

Posted on March 6, 2020 by Valerie Ing

I know, it’s been a while since we’ve chatted, but I’m not gonna lie. Things are kinda shitty right now. It all started about six weeks ago, right around the last time you heard from me, as a matter of… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: Casper Sparky Woofgang

Posted on January 17, 2020 by Valerie Ing

“Mama?” My daughter stood at the foot of my bed, calling out to me in the dark in a fragile, worried voice I haven’t heard from Sophia since she was a little girl. “Mama, I think there’s something wrong with… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: When Halloween Gets A Little Too Thrilling

Posted on October 31, 2019 by Valerie Ing

Redding has Rodeo Week, New Orleans has Mardi Gras, and Rio has Carnival. But Ashland has Halloween. Boy, does it ever have Halloween. It’s got kind of a rocky history, its ups and downs, but I haven’t yet found a… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: Oh Canada

Posted on August 30, 2019 by Valerie Ing

By the time you read this, I will have fled the country. I know a lot of people have threatened to fly the coop and head to Canada during the political shit storm we’ve been experiencing since 2016, but I’m… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: Ouch!

Posted on August 16, 2019 by Valerie Ing

When my husband looked over at me at the end of the day and said, “You look like you’ve been run over by a 4-wheeler,” I didn’t take it as an insult (at least not at first).  But ouch. It… Continue Reading →

Mistress of the Mix: Letter To My Former Flirtation

Posted on July 19, 2019 by Valerie Ing

About a decade ago, I thought I was ready to learn how to date the opposite sex. I was newly single after a pretty miserable marriage between two mismatched people. The only thing we really had in common anymore was… Continue Reading →

  • Comment on Neighborhood residents go to court over county’s alternative custody campus and jail proposal by Mike Michalak
    In reply to MovingForward. Point well taken. The Kutras property adjacent to the Sundial Bridge was formerly zoned industrial and the proposed relocation site of the Wintu casino was zoned agricultural -until they weren’t.

  • Comment on Neighborhood residents go to court over county’s alternative custody campus and jail proposal by Mike Michalak
    In reply to Tim Rogain. Au contraire! This site is no less a candidate for a City Park than any other property the City of Redding owns. Any homeless are on the opposite side of Hwy 273 or under the Clear Creek bridge. Neither spot is anywhere near the proposed “criminal campus.” The riverfront portion […]
