Wow where has the time flown? Recently I’ve been feeling the clock ticking really loudly in my brain. Part of it is that lots of things come up this time of year besides flowers. Some things relate to my past life, and others to events that happened after I came home. In a few weeks…

Gardening in therapeutic doses.
The Gaslight
I’m not sure where I first learned the term “gas-lighting“. I knew it wasn’t good, but at the same time I didn’t really understand the action. Once I learned about it, I never once thought I was ever a victim of it. I spent so many years focusing on him, on how to not…
Get Up & Go
Find what gives your soul joy and do it!
Unintentional Realizations
What is one of the hardest things about trying to eat healthy? Well – at least one of the hardest for me, anyway. Actually cooking and eating what I cook. I’m not a bad cook. I’m actually pretty good, if I do say so myself. When I was in high school, I would fantasize about…
Enchilada Time
So it’s a bit delayed, but hey, good things take time. 🙂 I actually almost skipped this for another post, but then remembered that I used my actual camera to take my food photos, not my cell phone – oops! This recipe holds two things that D either hated or disliked and thus it was…
Moving on
I started a post two weeks ago (give or take) on the anniversary of the final moments of my marriage. I had lots of ideas, yet words weren’t finding their way through my fingers to the keyboard. I’ve been going through a lot of stressful stuff, but still, the landmark of that day cut through. …
All the comforts of home
When I set out to start this blog I had a goal in mind to each week rotate between topics, but everything has been SO serious so far. I have pages for my chickens, and my writing, and will eventually have more to try and keep myself organized. One of the many topics I will…
Anticipation – not the good kind
When I was a little girl I loved holidays and birthdays. They were always fun and filled with at least three generations of family. My birthdays were always one of my favorite, not just because it was well, my birthday, but because I often got to celebrate with my Grandma Donna. My birthday is the…
Sleep Deprivation
Have you ever fallen asleep while talking on the phone at work? Or even falling asleep while you play a video game? At the computer? Standing in the doorway? I know I can’t be the only one. It wasn’t narcolepsy. It was a side effect of sleep deprivation abuse. It was the worst after I…
Best made plans…
This week has been a bit crazy. I returned to work after about three months off. One of the things I just roll with being a seasonal temp employee for the government. I love my job though, so it’s all worth it. I went from lazy mornings and telling the chickens they could stay in…
