Days of Crafts!

Thursday Nov 27, 2025

Thursday Nov 27, 2025

Some recent school projects have provided the needed stimulus for me to remember my crafty days of yore. It's so interesting when you haven't really done something for like 30 years and then, all of sudden, you are back to it. Somehow, our fingers remember what to do!

Yes, as the title of today's episode implies, today is about books. What I'm reading, what I'm putting off (I do love procrastinating), and why I'm a huge fan of reading in general. We are moving into winter, friends, so it may time time to pile up blankets, make tea, and get a big stack of books ready!

Spilling Some Secrets!

Thursday Nov 06, 2025

Thursday Nov 06, 2025

Don't worry -- I'm not spilling state secrets or even major family secrets. These are not the kind of secrets you have to wait for some folks to pass on before you can share them. But, secrets all the same! We have so little gossip in our house of very even-tempered boys -- it's kind of fun when we do!

People change. I know that old saying: you can't teach and old dog new tricks. Well, I'm not so sure that's true. We are all changing/evolving and sometimes we have to remember that the people in our lives may not always 'be' who we remember them to be.
