Life is too short to not be myself…
Oh my. So much to say. Let’s just start with how I’m not totally digging this empty-nest thing right now. Oh, I don’t mind the empty-nest as much I mind the distance between my kids and me. Once again, I’m asking myself what I was thinking, raising such independent kids!!
I have been a busy little bee this weekend. I had a wonderful lunch with a dear friend I haven't really seen for several years. It was a three-hour lunch date! It was so nice to catch up with one another again. I had really missed our friendship so I am really glad we are... Continue Reading →
Good morning! It's 8:13 a.m. where I am and I already feel productive. I decided I would treat myself for breakfast today and it was yummy! Now, this isn't a cooking blog by any means. I don't make my own recipes (at least not to share) and I don't take the best photos of my... Continue Reading →
So my nest has been more empty than usual. DH has been on the road. It's been so quiet here! In some ways it's been really nice and other ways... well, I prefer to be alone all day and then have him come home to me in the evenings. I finished 2 series on Netflix,... Continue Reading →
Whew! Have I been busy this Saturday morning! I've written the devotions for next week and have chosen the scriptures for the next week's devotions.

I have 30 minutes to do... whatever or 10 minutes depending on the activity. I've made myself push through and just work until the timer went... Continue Reading →
How are you fairing this cold snap that is making its way across the US? I'm staying inside, nice and warm. I've got a nice fire going in the fireplace and I've had my hot cocoa and I just may have another. I've been trying to get some things done but I'm not being very... Continue Reading →
So the other day I listed some things I wanted to do more of and one was writing. I even said maybe I'd try my hand at poetry. Now, I am definitely not a poet but it was fun to try to just pen a few words together to mean a little something... at least... Continue Reading →
Yesterday was such a lovely day. Both DH and I had tons of work to do. Usually, we go our separate ways to do our work. He goes upstairs to his work area and I go downstairs but yesterday, we decided to sit together to do our work separately. It made for a lovely day... Continue Reading →
So, it's a new year. We are almost a month into the new year and I have not done the obligatory new year's post. I'm not really interested in making resolutions or creating a new me or any of that, but I am looking forward to a new year, one that is different and the... Continue Reading →
