September 2021
On my Instagram feed today: “you have to get to a point where your mood doesn’t shift based on the insignificant actions fo someone else.” This touched me to my soul. I have been struggling with this for most of my life, but am working on it in earnest this year. I want to beContinue reading “September 2021”
Our Stories Are Worth Telling
We finally had some warm, dry days to get our vegetable garden planted. Now we just need to keep the gentle, soaking rains going so everything germinates and more warm, sunny days for growing! I am looking forward to the healthy produce from this garden. On the other side of that garden, I had plannedContinue reading “Our Stories Are Worth Telling”
I Flow In Harmony and Peace
Winter is over, Spring has arrived. Easter is past and now we have April showers. Everything is bursting with renewed life and energy. My gardens are showing signs of growth and renewal. The birds are singing in the trees and the sun is warming my side of the world. I watch the ducks and geeseContinue reading “I Flow In Harmony and Peace”
Spring Renewal
I had a really rough morning at work yesterday, so really needed a quiet walk in nature to ground and center myself so I could come back to my desk in a better mood and a kinder, gentler frame of mind. It was a perfect day to walk in the park close to my work.Continue reading “Spring Renewal”
Seriously getting in the Yule Spirit
I spent some time outside at my home. By myself. In the wind. With some peppermint tea. I feel so much better now! On my drive to work, I was thinking about what to get my son and his family for Christmas/Yule, and came up with the perfect gifts! As a plus, I have alreadyContinue reading “Seriously getting in the Yule Spirit”
I Heard and Heeded the Call
This morning was one of those difficult ones, the kind that you wish you could just go back to bed and call it a day already! Hubby was not happy about my shopping trip yesterday (even though I got him some warm and comfortable fleece clothes to wear for his cancer treatments), and he wokeContinue reading “I Heard and Heeded the Call”
Small Steps
This is the way I feel right now as Hubby & I come to grips with his diagnosis. We now have appointments with an oncologist and an oncology radiologist. The appointments are 2 weeks away, but at least they are made and we will know more by Thanksgiving. I have picked up a mini plannerContinue reading “Small Steps”
Beginning a New Era
We got the results of Hubby’s biopsy on Saturday. He does have cancer, thankfully (if there can be such a thing with that kind of diagnosis), his cancer is due to a virus and usually responds well to treatment. We spent the rest of the weekend at home, quietly, just enjoying each other’s company andContinue reading “Beginning a New Era”
Reflections
As this year passes into the next, I am put into a reflective mood. I tried and failed to become independent of my husband. He hasn’t changed, but the way I view our marriage has changed. My attempt to leave has brought out a deep fissure between our daughter and us. I am trying toContinue reading “Reflections”
