I Haven’t Felt Like Blogging

I haven't felt like blogging in a while.  I decided I'd make a post anyway.  If I go too long without posting, I will get out of the habit altogether.  So, this post will just be a ramble.  My apologies in advance. Last Week I had some bad side View Post

Spring Break 2023

Spring Break 2023 is officially in the books!  Not that we did anything terribly exciting.  The weather was just super rainy and cold here.  We planned an excursion requiring a few hours of outside time, but we decided to postpone that until the View Post

March Home Happenings

Happy Monday!  I just thought I'd share some of my March home happenings with you.  I hope your weekend was restful!  Ours was pretty quiet.  I definitely caught up on a bit of reading and napping.  I spent last week doing a little housework each View Post

Books I Read in February 2023

It's time for my monthly "Books I Read" post.  I only read three books this month, but I guess that's better than nothing.  I'm one of those readers with several books going at once.  So, I'm reading a few others, but I'm only posting what I finish View Post

Lunch and Books

Last Thursday, I enjoyed a lunch and books day with my mama.  It had been a while since we went to lunch, just she and I, so we headed downtown to a local bistro.  It's right across the street from our local arts alliance, and they always have quotes View Post

Photo Dump and Other Happenings

So, I guess today's post is basically just a photo dump and a catch-up of sorts.  Ha!  I've been out of the blogging loop for the past couple of weeks, but we did have some things going on that I wanted to document on the blog, so here we View Post

Celebrating a Milestone Birthday

We spent this past weekend celebrating a milestone birthday in our home.  When I woke up Friday morning, I no longer had a child.  My sweet little 5 lb. 15 oz. baby boy somehow turned into an 18-year-old adult before our eyes.  And y'all. I was not View Post

What I Read in January 2023

Today I'm sharing what I read in January of 2023. I'm reading so much more, and it's one goal I have been very consistent about this year.  And Im pretty darn excited about it!  I'll warn you, though.  My selections are a real mixed bag and all over View Post

Hibernation Color By Number Printable Coloring Pages

Today I have some free Hibernation Color By Number Coloring Pages to share!  As a young kid in elementary school, I remember learning about animals and when and why they hibernated.  It was fascinating that animals could hunker down like that to pass View Post

Trying New Restaurants and Recipes

Good Monday morning!  I hope your weekend was wonderful.  Ours was laid back and quiet.  The weather was a little rainy and blah.  We stayed home.  I did a little laundry, tried a couple of new recipes, and read a whole bunch! I didn't get to post View Post

Downtime and Re-Entry

Last week was a bit of downtime and re-entry for me.  The Teen started returning to school after the holidays, so we returned to our old routine.  In some ways, I was ready.  I've found being in a routine makes me so much more productive.  However, View Post
