TToT – Between the Holidays

So here we are. It’s the end of a year once again and the beginning of a new one waits just ahead. I have been feeling rather reflective the last couple of weeks, even amidst the busy-ness of the holidays. Here between the Christmas and New Year holidays seems a good time to do that. The…

TToT – Enjoying Life!

We have been busy here, friends! I have to tell you this. I can’t remember quite enjoying the time leading up to the holidays as much as I am this year. It’s different. I could ramble on here for a few paragraphs about all the specifics of why, but I’m not going to. Let me…

The Spirit of Christmas

Saturday was the feast of St. Nicholas. My Daughter woke to find her shoes filled with clementines and chocolate truffles with pretty wrapping and of course she was delighted. When else does a child get a treat for not putting away their shoes at night? She positively floated to our room that morning, I am…

TToT – Thanksgiving Thankfulness

As I started to put this post together, it occurred to me that writing a thankful list at Thanksgiving was no different than any other week. Mission accomplished, I guess! If by listing the things we are thankful for each week, we’ve created a mindset where we no longer see giving thanks as a once-a-year…

TToT – Community

The Fab Hub rolled his eyes and sighed at me when I told him I didn’t know if I had ten things for my list this week. I’m not really sure when my husband the cynic became my husband the positive thinker. But the gesture did serve to make me realize that hearing those words out…

The TToT of Being Sick

I couldn’t think of anything else to call this. I started my list early in the week and added items as they occurred. This morning I realized that most of my items this week center on my ongoing respiratory issues. So there it is – The TToT of Being Sick. Still. Photos…I have none. I haven’t been outside the…

TToT – A Positive Week (Except for the Allergies)

I’m going with an approach that has worked for TToT posting before…adding things as they happen during the week. First, I am (as of Tuesday morning) feeling better than I was even 48 hours ago. My smoothies have clearly done their work. I am less congested, coughing far less than I’ve been in the last…

TToT – A Big One

We have a big one to be thankful for this week, friends. Huge. The Hub’s got himself a great big full time position! It’s the same one he’s had, but we’ve moved from a part-time/temporary status to extending the term to the year to full time. That’s right. Full. Time. Job. That really ought to…
