Thankful Thursday 06.2021

Sweet potatoes, it’s time for Thankful Thursday 06.2021.  I am horrified to discover that it has been 4 months since my last Thankful Thursday post.  How sad is that?  It has been penciled in on my agenda every month.  And I write in my gratitude journal every single night (almost).  So what is my problem?  […]

Howdy, quarantine queens and mask-eraders, it’s time for Thankful Thursday 10.2020.  I am linking up today with Rebecca Jo for her gratitude series, which she publishes every week.

Thankful Thursday 09.2020 & My WOTY

Howdy, quarantine queens and mask-eraders, it’s time for Thankful Thursday 09.2020.  I am linking up with Rebecca Jo for her gratitude series, which she publishes every week.  While I certainly have many things for which to be grateful, I try to do a Thankful Thursday post on the last Thursday of the month.  However, I […]

Hello!

graphic tee

In what felt like the blink of an eye, I have gone from full-time wife to my sweet husband, hands-on mom to my two beautiful daughters and elementary school librarian to a retired, empty nester with lots of time on my hands. Join me on my journey to rediscover who I am. Glad you are here...

Had committed to kitty sitting for 15 felines before my positive Covid test this a.m. Their 'mama' has gone out of town for a wedding.  Glad to have some entertainment this weekend.
