I really have been having a hard time writing this every blog every day. How is that for honesty? It's been four months where I haven't missed a day. But, as I sit here at my desk today, I really want to quit. I also know that these last few weeks have been emotionally exhausting. … Continue reading Process

Her
I don't have much to say today except that I want to remember that this little girl is who I am. Messy, joyful and full of life. Being an adult is overrated. I've been an adult for a while and I'm done with it.Sure, okay, I'll keep going and do what needs to be done. … Continue reading Her
Wonder Dogs
When I was little, there was a family down the street that had basset hounds. We always had hounds because my dad was a hunter, but we never had a basset hound. We would drive by their house and the dogs would be just hanging out in their driveway. I always loved them and dreamed … Continue reading Wonder Dogs
Time
When I sit down to write these posts, I have no idea what is going to come out. Some days I want to write something deep and meaningful and powerful. And it just doesn't happen. That's the weird thing about writing this blog - the more I think about what to write, the harder it … Continue reading Time
Rain
Today it rained and rained and rained. I'm in New Hampshire and found out that when it rains and rains and rains here, water comes into our basement. That's good to know. The river is flowing like crazy, so the water is light brown from the stirred up sand. The little sandy spot I planned … Continue reading Rain
Couch Dogs
We have a super comfy couch and two relatively comfy chairs in our living room. We also have Christian's leather recliner we bought about 20 years ago. We really try to keep the dogs off of the furniture. We really do. We prop up cushions so they can't fit. We put our little square cube … Continue reading Couch Dogs
Tulips
It's the tulip time of year and today as I was driving I saw so many sweet and perfect tulips. My favorite were the beds in the Dunkin Donuts drive-thru. I was able to snap a photo. I spent the day updating signage for the farm. They're opening up this weekend for ice cream for … Continue reading Tulips
I love cookies.
Today I made such a yummy lunch. Arugula salad with fresh squeezed lemon juice, olive oil, parmesan cheese, fresh ground pepper. Avocado with everything bagel seasoning. A sweet potato and black bean salad with lime and cilantro and onion. My plate was full with all these yummy veggies. I feel so good when I eat … Continue reading I love cookies.
Purple Ball
The boys are back in school after vacation. Christian is away for work. The house was very quiet today. Lot's of running the kids around after school. That's pretty normal for this time of year. It's just that it feels like a shock to the system after this past year of slowing down. The 80's … Continue reading Purple Ball
Leading lady
We went out on a little family shopping trip to the mall today. New sneakers for Wes and Charlie. A young guy working in the hip sneaker shop told me he liked my sneakers. He said he hadn't seen any like those. I'm pretty sure unique is cool in the world of sneakers. Afterwards, I … Continue reading Leading lady
