Life is too short to not be myself…
I thought I'd spend the month of July sharing Christmas in July posts and here we are almost halfway through and I haven't shared a single Christmas in July post yet! It's been crazy. My emotions have been going haywire, my stress levels have been high and I've been feeling like I'm losing my mind... 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 →
I know... I just shared my Wonderful Wednesday post... I should be feeling good! I should be feeling blessed! Instead, I'm sitting here feeling... down, a little sad even. 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 →
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 →
The next day was all about Graduation day for my DH. OH! Let me know back up just a bit... Just before dinner the night before, I received texts from family that their flight had been delayed almost 2 hours! They were already getting in really late so now we are worrying about flights again...... Continue Reading →
So the next day was just plain YUCKY. It rained, full on downpour most of the day. DH had an early meeting, so he went off to do his thing. We had planned on him coming back to get me and we'd go spend the morning having breakfast together and wandering about town on a... Continue Reading →
