About Linda Schaub

This is my first blog and I enjoy writing each post immensely. I started a walking regimen in 2011 and in 2013 I decided to create a blog as a means of memorializing the people, places and things seen on my daily walks. I have always enjoyed people watching, so my blog is peppered with folks I meet or reflections of characters I have known through the years. Often something piques my interest, or evokes a pleasant memory from my memory bank, so this becomes a “slice o’ life” blog post. I respect and appreciate nature and my interactions with Mother Nature’s gifts is also a common theme. Sometimes the most-ordinary items become fodder for points to ponder over and touch upon. I retired in March 2024 after a career in the legal field. I was a legal secretary for almost 45 years, primarily working in downtown Detroit, then working from my home. I graduated from Wayne State University with a degree in Mass Communications (print journalism) in 1978, though I’ve never worked in that field. I would like to think this blog is the writer in me finally emerging!! Walking and writing have met, shaken hands and the creative juices are flowing in Walkin’, Writin’, Wit & Whimsy. I hope you think so too. - Linda Schaub

      Thanks Anne – I did not intend to have two Wordless Wednesdays. I’ve been collecting these oddball photos for a while … something to make you tilt your head. 🙂

    Fun! As I was looking through the pictures I thought you could have named this “Eileen” or “I lean”. LOL!

    I’m afraid if I stand up after looking at these photos I might fall over. If that sidewalk lamp could talk… 🙂

      It’s amazing just how tilted some of these trees are and those lamp posts have been like on the boardwalk at Elizabeth Park and no one fixes them! I thought of you today Dave as this post was not intentional. I just wrote to you that I only post twice a week. I actually have kept this post as a perpetual post, scheduling it every Wednesday, in case I had an internet issue because I have not missed any Wordless Wednesdays since I started doing them in March 2020. Then I reschedule it once I do the next post. However, I did the walnut post and forgot to unschedule this one – oops!

        A post in your back pocket – how very organized! It’s a great idea for those of us trying to stick to a schedule.

        Thank you Dave. I liked having it there and now I have to get a new backup post. I don’t want to break my Wordless Wednesday streak! Because I never know how the Winter will shake out, I like to have a lot of photos/narratives stored up. Even though we’ve had a mild Winter so far, every single day has been gloomy and gray, so there’s nothing to take photos of, although I found a painted rock in the Park today, a very artistic-looking snowman. Voila: instant blog fodder!

    That’s a great collection of tilts. Did you know that you’d be putting a montage together when you took them or was is serendipity?

      I’m glad you liked them Janis. Actually I’ve been collecting them for a while and what I did was I kept this post as a perpetual post, scheduling it every Wednesday, in case I had an internet issue, as I have not missed any Wordless Wednesdays since I started in March 2020. Then I did the walnut post and forgot to unschedule this one – oops! I actually had a few more “tilts” to add to it down the road.

      Thanks Barbara – I had collected these and actually had another one to add. I kept this post perpetually scheduled for the following week so I would always have one scheduled in case I had internet issues then decided to do the “nuts post” and forgot to unschedule this one. Now I have to get another one ready for my ace in the hole! I have a few signs I’ve collected as well – hope I can find them in my mass of photos. I have a grid for the big posts to find them easily, but not these.

    LOL – that’s a lot of tilts you noticed. Reminded me a bit of what I felt like when was a kid and rode the Tilt-a-Whirl ride at the fair and had to get off and walk straight. 😆

      Thanks Diane! I had been collecting them in this post and kept it as a perpetual post, so I was always one ahead, then I kept moving it … I had some more “tilts” to add to it but then I forgot to unschedule it … that’s why I ended up with two posts. I am bummed about that … I figure I can make a Tilt #2 post down the road. It is amazing how many things are off-kilter on my walks.

      You always make me laugh and then I wonder why I didn’t think of that line JP. In fact, I may plagiarize your funny line because I have more head tilt shots, so I will have a “Head Tilt Two”. To answer your question, I am amazed there are so many things that are off-kilter and could give you a “crick” in your neck. Surely it isn’t just me that notices them? P.S. – I hope your hours have you off the roads and kicking back or on your way home during this messy storm.

        I got lucky and am off tonight, but even so, we seem to be missing most of the worst weather.

        Thank you JP – you’re witty and I’m happy to credit it to you. 🙂 Well you lucked out; it’s good you’re missing this crummy weather. We got snow followed by rain and then a flash freeze. Everything is a sheet of ice which, with the wind, was treacherous to even go out to run the car and the windchill the next few days will be going to -15 to -20. Brrr.
