Do You Hear What I Hear?
A pot of water boiling on the stove. We need to use those last few potatoes today. Rain – or maybe melting snow – dripping outside the windows. Perhaps a little of both. Christmas songs on the radio. Awesome. Cars driving by. The windows are open today. Fifty-four degrees so far today. A flock of…

Ten Things of Thankful – Couldn’t Help Myself Edition
I couldn’t help myself. Over the last couple of months, I’ve become so accustomed to looking for the positive moments in my weeks, that I couldn’t help but sit down on Friday night and start my TToT list. But there’s no TToT linkup for an entire fortnight. Everybody has holiday things to do and that’s wonderful.…

Ten Things of Thankful – Putting Up the Tree Edition
If it weren’t for the Ten Things of Thankful hop, I think my blog would be in hibernating mode. I want to post lots of great things, but it’s been kind of crazy around here since Thanksgiving so I’m not getting in as much write time as I would prefer. Or anything else time, really.…

Ten Things of Thankful – Back in the Saddle Edition
I totally missed the TToT party last weekend. And I mean missed in the sense that on Monday I realized the weekend had come and gone and I was not part of it. I went down like a ton of bricks the Saturday morning after Thanksgiving with THE worst stomach virus I think I’ve ever…

One Year Ago Today
Intrigued by Mama Kat’s prompt about what was on my blog one year ago, I decided to check it out. The closest date in my archives was December 4th. The topic? Yurts. Seriously, yurts. Check it out – http://www.themeaningofme.com/your-what-hurts/. I’ll hang out here while you read and learn about yurts. So back to Mama Kat’s…

Back from the Dead
Hello, friends! It’s been a while… I definitely took a little unexpected blog break for the last several days. First, we were heading into the holiday and everybody knows what kind of craziness that brings. Then, it was the actual holiday so there went the end of the week. Plus, in the midst of the…

TToT – Late to the Party Edition
Happy (end of the) weekend, friends! I was really excited about the TToT 25th weekaversary party…and somehow I am here at the eleventh hour (oh, shocker) finishing up my list. Hey, somebody has to be the last to arrive, right? I’m kind of drained and not feeling too hot right now, so this is going to be…

Ten Things of Thankful – Not Much Exciting Edition
Isn’t that the worst title for a post? It’s like I’m inviting everyone not to read my post because there’s nothing going on. But really, that’s kind of what the week felt like. It took a long time to get this TToT post going. It’s not that I don’t have anything to be thankful for…I guess…

Friday Favorites – Sort of Serious Edition
It has been a long and exhausting week, friends. At the moment, I feel like Atlas holding up the celestial spheres. Things to do, things to think about, places to be, worries weighing on my mind… In the midst of the chaos, though, I have a few favorite moments to share. Perhaps these are a bit…

Gator!
I was commenting on a blog post last week and related a tale of my childhood fear of the toilet. Yes, the toilet. See, I was afraid to use the bathroom in the dark because of the alligator. I was convinced that a horrible alligator lived in the sewer underneath my Grandparents’ house (no, there…
