Here I am, out for my morning walk. I've been really trying to get myself moving in the mornings with a short 10 to 15-minute walk. I go for a longer one with DH later in the day, but I think it's a great way to start my day. We are really working at getting... Continue Reading →

Wonderful Wednesday
I have continued to struggle with The Blues ... A LOT, so I decided to dub today Wonderful Wednesday as a day of counting my wonderful blessings. So ... here we go! My family - They may be spread out, and I might not get to see them often enough, but they are mine and they... Continue Reading →
The Blues
The blues. Sometimes, they just sneak up on me. Does that ever happen to you? I think I must be really good at hiding it, even from myself. I tell myself, oh, I’m just lazy, just tired, what do I have to be blue about? I can even still tell jokes and be quite funny... Continue Reading →
Healthy cooking for one, please…
I've been cooking for one a lot recently and that's something I struggle with sometimes. It's funny to me how sometimes, it's so easy and then other times... not so much. Oh, I don't struggle so much with the cooking part as I do with the planning part... What do I cook? How do... Continue Reading →

Refocusing on my health
So last September, I found out that my cholesterol was high. The doctor immediately wanted to put me on medication to get it under control. I had feared this for a while. It's in my genes. No chemicals for me, please. I didn't want to take any pills. No chemicals for me, please. I had... Continue Reading →
Good News for this Momma’s heart
Last week, I shared that my DS would be deploying soon but he has found out that he is NOT deploying for now! He is scheduled for a school later this year and it’s just not worth it to send him for just a couple of months, I guess. So, for this momma’s heart, it... Continue Reading →
Cinderella, Breakfast Tacos, and more
This weekend I took my mom to see DD’s performance in Cinderella. It was wonderful and of course, she was beautiful. She amazes me every day. Her bravery, her talent, her determination. I ask myself all the time, “How did YOU raise kids like this?” They are both just amazing people.She didn’t have a lot... Continue Reading →
The Snooze Button
I don’t know about you, but I have a love/hate relationship with the snooze button. And you throw in Daylight Savings time and UGH! What do you do with your snooze button time? Do you use it for a few extra minutes of sleep? Or maybe you use it to slowly wake up. Or maybe... Continue Reading →
