Broken Photos!

All my old photos were hosted by PhotoBucket and PhotoBucket recently made a change that took all photos off third party sites so you will see those broken link images all across the internet, including my old traveling pictures 😭 I have to go through my accounts and find each picture so...

Too Comfortable?

When we get really comfortable, are we still growing? I think we humans thrive on constant challenges. That’s why routines start to feel like ruts. And you start to wonder if this is really all there is to life. All of which is to say, it’s time for us to move...

You’ll Have To Forgive Me

I am finding it impossible to report on our doings at all, and the other day I realized why. I was marking down an appointment towards the end of January in my calendar, and as I looked down at the month of January, I saw that we had been in Albequerque...

Home Again

Well, we’re home now. This house in Clearwater isn’t supposed to be home anymore, but it’s difficult to loose the habit of calling it that. We have an offer on the house, for less than the amount of the mortgage, and we’re waiting to hear from the bank whether they will...

Give Me Spots on My Apples, but Leave Me the Birds and the Bees…Please!

I tend to let my children go out and adventure without hovering, and moreso with each child. A few weeks ago when her sister was chasing her over the sidewalk, Annabelle had a terrible spill and scraped up her lovely face: nose, lips, and chin all lost the top layer of...
