Anyone out there a care giver personality? I meaning a care giver at heart not someone forced to be because of circumstances (you are so important so special but for this post I’m talking about something different) someone who gives care without even thinking and not because you have to because you’re a wife or...

A controversial discussion… sort of…
Photo by Craig Adderley on Pexels.com So, I'm going to be controversial. I'm sorry but it has to be said. No, it's not politics and it's not religion either... well, that is unless, you make food your religion. Here it goes. Why is food such an important part of EVERYTHING? I mean I get it...

The Art of Life
Photo by Kat Jayne on Pexels.com How are you doing at it? The Art of Life? Personally, I think I’m failing a bit. I created this category here on the blog thinking it’d be fun to share recipes, crafts, life, but lately I feel like I’m barely hanging on by a thread. Oh, I’ve been... Continue Reading →
Christmas in July part 2
I don't know about you, but I've been needing a little escape from all the ... craziness in the world (well, mostly the United States). It's been overwhelming and exhausting. So the other DD and I took a Christmas break! Yep, we just did Christmas all day. We baked cookies, we ate cookies, we drank... Continue Reading →
More deadly than COVID-19
I was lying awake in bed early this morning and found myself praying. Praying for my family and friends, praying for “my enemies.” I don’t really think I have enemies, this is a phrase Jesus used “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” Matthew 5:44 - I think of it as praying...

Rambling thoughts on life today…
So friends, how are you doing? Really? How are you REALLY doing? I know for some of us this stay at home thing is hard. Easter was different. For some, it didn’t feel even a little bit like Easter! My Easter was different, it had a little sadness, but it also had smiles and laughter. ... Continue Reading →
We CAN do this!
This morning, I rolled over in bed and picked up my phone. I had gotten out of the habit of doing this in early January but as this virus has taken over, I find myself once again, looking for my phone and catching up on the news before I even get out of the bed.... Continue Reading →
I think I’m back
So, my friends, you may have noticed that I took a bit of a hiatus from my blog. Well, really it was just from writing in general. Things got overwhelming in my little life and I had to let some things go for a while. I took time for me. Time to rest (I thought),... Continue Reading →
A Big One…
I had a BIG birthday last month. Yep, I am now 50 years young. You may be thinking... "ahh... that's why she's been struggling!" Nope. That's not it. It's a million other things that I don't feel like I am able to share on this platform. Turning 50 has actually been great. In fact, it's... Continue Reading →
A little more Gratitude
So I figure gratitude is a great way to start the day and maybe a side effect will be feeling better and less stressed. So... here we go! Cups of hot chocolate. I had a lovely cup last night while watching a little TV. Crochet. I love crocheting. It clears my mind, helps me focus... Continue Reading →
