Ahh…hear that? It’s my favorite sound – the sound of silence. The roofers are done and David finished the plumbing. Everyone is gone. I’m alone. I would love to curl up with a cup of tea and a book (or take a nap!) but one of the roofers will be back *sometime* to pick up…
Traumatic Tuesday…
Okay, so that post title is a little overly dramatic but I currently have eight men on my roof scraping off old shingles. Perhaps that doesn’t sound like a big deal but for a “Highly Sensitive Person” the noise and vibration can be rather overwhelming. I just might need to spend some time at the…
Memory Lane Monday…Nickelodeon – Old School
This post is dedicated to my “children of the 80s” without whom I would be woefully ignorant of the following: Maya the Bee: The World of David the Gnome: The Adventures of the Little Koala: Eureeka’s Castle: Mr. Wizard’s World: Sharon Lois and Bram’s Elephant Show: When Lisa was an infant I spent an inordinate…
The bread of life…

Just because…
Look at what my sweetheart brought me tonight: They are my favorite type of flower, known as “no reason” or “just because”. var addthis_config = {“data_track_clickback”:true};
Day Two…a little spicy
It’s Day Two of my “30 Day Challenge” and I chose to clean and organize my spice cabinet. As you can see, I have a fairly extensive collection of herbs and spices: Here they are sitting out on the counter. I sorted through them all and found a few duplicates which I could combine in…
30 Day Challenge
One of my friends on a Yahoo email group mentioned doing something she calls a “30 Day Blitz”. Basically, she and her kids are devoting one hour a day for 30 days to getting caught up on some household tasks. Several of us in the group thought this was a great idea and are planning…
