Well hello there. Remember me? There have been so many moments over the last couple of months that I wanted to stop and write for a few minutes, but somehow those moments slipped through my fingers without them reaching for the keyboard. Or this particular keyboard at least. It’s been a busy few months and…
Joyful January?
So, obviously, I didn’t write every day this month. And writing is one of those things that bring me joy, but that doesn’t mean I have to write a lot to find joy in it, right? I did plenty of other things that brought me joy this month: I exercised every day! I followed the…
I’m not brave
When I read this morning’s prompt I didn’t think I had anything to contribute to the topic. The prompt was “How are you brave?” I wouldn’t describe myself as brave at all. I’ve lived much of my life being afraid to take chances. Afraid to look stupid, or silly. The only real change I relished…
The Sunday Post: What’s the word, 2023?
Happy new year! Yesterday a friend asked me for help picking a word for 2023. For some reason, she thought I could help her figure out what her focus should be this year, but I hadn’t thought about it myself yet. I didn’t suggest a word for her because I don’t think anyone else can…
Music Fridays: Let’s Catch Up
It’s been a minute! The other day I was wondering about the fact that I’ve been getting a lot of likes on some older posts despite not having written anything in a while. I don’t think there’s any correlation, but it did make me wonder if I should post more regularly or less regularly. Anyway,…
The Sunday Post: 2 Weeks
It’s been a hot minute since you last heard from me. Hey, I’ve been busy! I have a quiet afternoon lined up for the rest of the day, so I thought I would take advantage and check in here. We have less than two weeks until the big wedding and about ten days until my…
Music Fridays: Olivia
I’ve been listening to Olivia all week. The Grease soundtrack. Physical. So many songs that are such a big part of my life as a Gen X-er. She seemed like such a good light in the world. These are just a couple of my favorites. May she rest in peace.
The Adventures Continue
Last weekend had a few firsts for me. I learned how to play backgammon Friday and both games were close! Granted, S gave me lots of tips and hints, so it probably would have been a blowout otherwise. But it was fun! The next morning we headed to the Saluda River for tubing! I know…not…
The Sunday Post: Deck Thoughts
We’re looking at houses today. I know, I know…but we’re not planning to make an offer or try to buy any of these houses. We’re just looking. But I’ll back up a little bit. Yesterday morning S came over for breakfast. It started as a joke, I guess when he texted me Friday night and…
