It’s been so long since I stopped in to say hello, I figured I’d better do it while I had a moment and was thinking about it. Winter ended rather abruptly, and with the end of the snow, the race to try to get something to grow in the garden (or rather ANYTHING to grow) …
Daily routine is important. Knowing what each day has in store is, for the most part, soothing. There is a comfort to getting up each day, accomplishing what needs to be accomplished and making the most of the time we are given to live our lives. For me, during the week at least, that means …
If anyone ever tells you that moving to a rural area will be relaxing, I encourage you to look them in the eye and tell them that they do not know what they are talking about. Seriously, they have no idea. Life is so full in the country, that there aren’t enough hours in the …
When we moved to where we built the cabin, the most difficult part about leaving “home”, was leaving my parents. They were close enough to be to their house in about 30 minutes, so if they needed us, we could be there. Leaving the state where my children and grandchildren live was difficult of course, …
