Life is too short to not be myself…
So this isn't my new year's post... I don't think, that will come later. For now, I want to talk about boys, sons. They are different. My first born was my son. He and I were inseparable. His dad, DH, was gone A LOT so it was often just the two of us. We were... Continue Reading →
So, yeah, I am totally loving having an empty nest locally! What I mean is that my nest is empty but DD lives nearby and I love that!! She was home as we decorated our Christmas tree at home and then yesterday afternoon DH and I went over to her place and helped her decorate... Continue Reading →
We moved DD into her new apartment this weekend. It's a cute historic apartment in our downtown area. I love that she is so close! We get to see her often and she gets to have her independence and all her belongings that were in storage. She's been so excited! We went and bought a... Continue Reading →
It's been a crazy couple of days here Sherriland. We are moving DD into a new apartment here locally. When I say we, I mean DD and me. It's exhausting. Then you throw in the election last night ... she and I stayed up most of the night night and then got up and got... Continue Reading →
Wow, I just knew I’d be back over here in a day or two after my last post but then things went wonky. I started trying to decide whether our little churches should continue to meet on Sunday mornings. We are a predominately elderly (over 70) congregation but we are also very small. I had...

What a crazy week this has been! I realized yesterday morning, Wednesday, that I posted my Wonderful Wednesday post on TUESDAY!! I've been a day ahead ever since. Sometimes I think I'm losing my mind. So very much going on... We moved Darling Daughter into a new apartment this week. It's really cute and she'll... Continue Reading →
Well, it's been crazy! We've had the dogs and darling son and his lovely wife came to get them and stayed a few days. I loved having them here! We had a nice visit and enjoyed the 4th of July together. Now the house is quiet again. I'm working this week to get ahead a... Continue Reading →
This weekend, we took a trip to the farmer's market and boy, did we eat good! We are terrible about not ever getting around to doing stuff. DH always had school work to do and I always have church work to do so we often just hang out at home. It's a very boring life... Continue Reading →
A couple of nights ago, my darling daughter informed me (via text) she was planning a trip to Chicago with a friend. I gulped, my eyes got big and I said... ok. This actually sent terror through my heart. My baby girl, going to Chicago without her dad to protect her?? What kind of crazy... Continue Reading →
Yep, you read that right! My nest isn't nearly as empty this morning and I'm the only human here. But I've got my granddogs with me and we are having a grand time! Okay, maybe not grand... but I think they like me and that's grand! Our sweet little Chief passed away almost a year... Continue Reading →
