When Life Gets in the Way – A Preamble

Two years ago, my Husband and I halfheartedly talked about considering a new start. Perhaps one or both of us were ready to think about looking for something new, something that would allow us to stretch and to grow. We very tentatively started to broach the subject of what we might like to do, where we would look, and what…

TToT – Continued Progress

It doesn’t seem possible that a week has passed already. I can’t say I’m happy about how fast these days have flown. I need this summer to stretch long before us…we have a lot to do. And that’s exactly what we’ve been doing this week – a lot. We’ve continued to work on our Great…

TToT – Progress Edition

It’s been a week of progress here in many ways. In fact, we have several things in progress today – right now – so I’m taking a quick break to link up my TToT and then it’s back to work! For the first item of thankful this week – and really, it should count as all…

Happy Birthday, Ten Things of Thankful!

The Ten Things of Thankful weekend blog hop is celebrating its first(ish) birthday! I’ve not been part of it for the whole year, but discovered it some months ago through Dyanne’s blog.

TToT – Letting Go

I’ve been missing from blogland a little lately. I can’t say it was anything intentional – more of a development as the last couple of weeks unfolded. It’s been a bit of a bumpy road lately and I really thought about bagging the TToT this weekend just to take a breath. But I’ve said all along that…

TToT – Light from Darkness

As I was putting together my list of Thankfuls for the week, I realized that there was something of a theme at work. We’ve had several “darker” moments this week – things that just haven’t been the most positive or haven’t gone quite the way we would have liked. But in several instances, a positive…

Not Your Day to Win

This post has been a long time coming. Mostly, I guess, because every time I sit and write some or think about the words that inspired it, I end up with really conflicted feelings about it – one day the whole thing spins very positive and another day it spins off in the absolute opposite…

Things I Never Thought I Would Do (Revisited)

This post originally appeared on my blog in August 2012. I’m re-posting it today because it (almost) perfectly fits one of Mama Kat’s prompts this week. It’s a few more items than the prompt asks for, but I couldn’t possibly choose…so I’m going with it. Once upon a time, I was completely non-girly.  Femininity is…
