So, after more than a month off, it is probably time I get off my duff and get back to things. I haven’t been good at all about getting up and getting moving lately, though I did take advantage of one of the recent really nice days and got out for a walk. My first … Continue reading
Last week was crazy busy around here. I had people here on a couple of different days getting the new windows installed, vet appointments, doctor’s appointments, parent teacher conferences, helping my brother and SIL move, touch up painting the new windows (which of course led to a bigger painting project) and then finished the week … Continue reading
First off, I have a much delayed thank you to send out to my soul sister, DragonFae. She passed the Versatile Blogger award on to me. It must be that she is overworked and sleep deprived to have appointed me for this (love ya, sis!), but I am truly honored to be among so many … Continue reading

I got the absolute joy of spending the entire weekend with one of my very best friends and her hubby. I don’t think that there has ever been a time where I have laughed as much or as hard as I did over the weekend. This weekend was an extra special treat for me since … Continue reading
In a few short weeks, I will be confronting one of my biggest fears. Flying. I know it may seem a bit silly to some, but it really is something that freaks me out a bit. Not only does the entire concept weird me out, but it makes me physically ill. I get terrible motion … Continue reading
Making cakes is one of my many creative passions. The last several years, though, I haven’t had much desire to do anything that pushed my creative abilities. This year is different.
