Life is too short to not be myself…
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 →
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 →
I'm not going to lie. I've been struggling - A LOT. I'm tired, exhausted, and spent. Some days, I think I'm just done. I'm over it. Time to move on. Only it's not that easy, is it? So this morning, as I was feeling all of this before ever even getting out of bed, I... Continue Reading →
The last few weeks, I've been kind of soul searching. Kind of trying to find myself again spiritually. I've been feeling a bit lost... not sure who I am, where I want to be, even what exactly I believe! This soul searching has moved me away from my computer, from social media. I've been reading,...

Maybe it's discouragement, maybe it's frustration, maybe I'm just tired. I don't know. I know it's more of yesterday's post lingering. I had to go in and... Continue Reading →
Let's just jump right into gratitude this morning. My health. I'm a basically healthy person and I'm am so very grateful for that. I visited with several people yesterday all in different stages of failing health and I realize that I don't want to take my own health for granted. My patient husband. He wasn't...

So I have a question for you. How do you know if it's burnout? What does it feel like? What does it look like? How do you keep from confusing it with selfishness/laziness? These are the questions I'm asking myself right now. It's leading me to not be able to do anything. It's somewhat paralyzing and... 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 →
