Get me to the church on time…if I can navigate the ridiculous traffic cones.

Today, my Lovie and I are recovering from our recent trip to Wisconsin. We had the pleasure of attending my sister-in-law’s wedding, which proved to be a beautiful and worthwhile experience. Despite her life-threatening illness, witnessing her union with her new husband warmed our hearts. They have faced life-altering challenges this past year. It was…

How does your garden grow?

Buying a house can be stressful, but we were lucky enough to get an already-established garden. There’s something magical about having a lush and bountiful garden. I love the lavender bushes, Day Lillies, carpet roses, and blue spruce trees. It not only looks stunning but also supplies pollen for bees.When we first visited the place,…

He left me on a jetplane….ok it is only for 6 days.

I’ve managed to churn out two blogs within weeks of each other. Lovie headed off to Wisconsin on Wednesday for his 40th high school reunion and to visit his family. It is good that he gets to spend time with his sister, especially since she’s been through a lot lately. His sister is recovering from…

Dreaming of a White Christmas

Another year is over. The Covid virus seems to have robbed us of so much time. I get a lot done, but at the same time, I get nothing done. I have spent the year designing fabrics, making resin statues, abstract embroidery creations, and crocheted blankets. I have been spinning my wheels on revamping my…

Congratulations and celebrations.

I figured that it might be time to catch up. I am never in the right frame of mind.I went to be with my parents when they moved. The move was hectic and tense. It is good that they no longer need to be on duty at night and can enjoy uninterrupted sleep.Once I got…

A Reader’s Digest

I cannot believe that I have let almost a year pass without updating my blog. The saying is that time flies while you are having fun, but I am not convinced that the past year has been 100% fun. Here we go with a summary of the past twelve months. We settled into the regular…

The long awaited visit.

It is amazing how you look forward to something for months and months and, then the much-anticipated event is in the rearview mirror. I was looking forward to a visit from Nana and Papa and, here we are, and they have come and gone already. It was lovely to see them after nine months. We…

Hot, hot, and hot.

Wow! This heatwave has not let up. We are in about the 6th week of constant high temperatures of over 90. Most days have averaged 95-100, with the cool down only happening at 11 pm every evening. The heat is dry, but it is wearing on my last nerve as it is just too oppressive…
