Having grown up in the tornado belt, I love storms. I also love looking up at the sky and seeing new varieties of clouds unlike anything I’ve seen before. Carefree puffs that just make me want to scoot: And then there are swirly, ever-changing, interesting storm clouds. These bubbly clouds popped up suddenly one evening, [...]
I know, I know, I haven’t written in awhile. But who wants to sit on an uncomfy chair in front of the computer… when you can go sit in front of this? We’ve been enjoying the abundant parks and lakes, alternating between exploring on the scooters and sitting at the edges of the lakes. The [...]
We thought we had found our new home. We visited the Rockies this weekend, expecting to move somewhere near Colorado Springs. But the Springs didn’t impress us that much. So we visited Denver, but we realized moving there would just be trading one big city for another. Then we drove across half the rural countryside around those areas, thinking Boulder or a small [...]
To follow up on my most recent goal post: 1. Feel better – making progress. I’ve been flipping through the book You can heal your life by Louise Hay. Thinking positively has made me feel better mentally and even physically. And I’ve gone to yoga twice in the past month. 2. Keeping track of progress [...]
You’re probably impatient with me for not writing in awhile, but I just haven’t been able to. Back in January, Hubby discovered that his company was hiring people for his job in both Kansas (where my family lives) and Colorado (where we’d like to live). After an agonizing week of discussion, we decided we should head [...]
So, my Wall of Dreams didn’t work out in the end. The November goal list finally fell off the wall a couple of weeks ago. I decided to scale back and think about what goals I would really, truly work for. I wrote from the heart and scribbled out page after page of all the [...]
A continuation of the earlier 30 things, I finally sat down and finished it. (The original 30 are at the bottom.) I am right-handed. I started using computers in the second grade. I prefer crochet over knitting. I met Hubby on a trip to meet a friend of a friend I had met online. Hubby [...]
I’ll try to work up to the traditional 100 Things About Me, but hey, this is a start. I’m a night person. I am a chocolate addict. An imported Swiss chocolate addict. My favorite color is blue. (Not red.) I love touching things. Up until the recent “formaldehyde in the Chinese clothing” scare, I always used to [...]
Every once in awhile, when I happen to glance down at my shoes, I usually notice one thing: My shoes do not look like the shoes of a manager. Now, while my main concern in attire is comfort and function, I do occasionally care what other people think about me. I care the most when [...]
Okay, okay. So I know I could be out there in the world doing something with other actual people, or even at home doing something more physically challenging than sitting on the couch. But there are some TV shows I just love. Here are a few of them, along with why I love them: Passport to [...]
