TToT – Transitions and Getting Back on Track
Fall has always been a time of transition and fresh starts for me. This year is no different. The change of seasons itself is a beautiful time of change – for me, the move from hot and humid to cool and comfortable is glorious. And I love the color changes, too. Although the fresh, bright…
TToT – The Last Long Weekend
Friday evenings hold something glorious and exciting. But when Thursday is the new Friday and the weekend is four days long? That first evening of the weekend is even more thrilling. We’ve had quite a few long weekends since the Hub only had to go into work Tuesdays through Thursdays all summer. So here we…
TToT – The Interim
Unbelievably, here we are at the end of summer. School begins on Monday for Kidzilla, so this is our last weekend of summer freedom. But I still can’t pull my brain away from the thought that summer lasts until Labor Day and this whole back-to-school before Labor Day thing is nonsense. So for the next…
TToT – The Stuff of Distraction
Sometimes I get distracted. Last weekend, I intended to post a second TToT because I had all the things to be thankful for. Then I forgot where I wrote them. I found a draft in my drafts folder. It may or may not be the intended second TToT. Either way, I’m going to snag the couple…
TToT – Hiatus
Apparently, I’m on hiatus. Not even kidding. Look back at my blog calendar since June and you will see a significant lack of posting. The TToT still makes it in each week, but lately that’s about it. Oh, I have ideas…loads of them. Drafts, too. Half-written, abandoned, “meh, nobody will want to read this” kind…
TToT – The Week of Summer Insanity
This has been a crazy week. And this TToT is going to be the fastest, shortest, latest, and most dependent upon the graces of the SGV that I’ve ever posted. Zilla had a full week of activities, which means that I did as well. Here’s what life looked like… (hold onto your hats because it’s…

Hop over to Eli’s and welcome the official start of summer with a roundup of how your favorite bloggers plan to spend their summer days… Official Kickoff…
Library Day – Checking Out the Library
I’ve been a bit MIA lately. My primary reason for being absent from this space is, simply, that we’ve been out living. My friend Ivy says that’s a damn good reason and I have to agree with her. One of our regular jaunts is to the local public library. We’ve been selecting books, of course, but also…
TToT – Summertime
There’s something special about summertime… The daylight lasts longer… Time seems to move a bit slower… Even the busy days feel a bit less structured and demanding. There is time to breathe, to inhale deeply, and to live deliberately… We are one week into our official summer break and have filled it with wonderful moments…
Wordless Wednesday – Chickens on the Farm on a Summer Evening
CSA season is here! Our visits to our summer CSA farm started the first Friday in June. Here are a few shots of the farm and some very cool chickens we saw while there. The rooster was particularly beautiful, although I don’t think the photos do him justice. The chicken shots aren’t the greatest – I…
