TToT – Taking Care of Business

I am late to the party this week, but I’m here! It’s been a very eventful week and there is much to do in the week ahead. For now, I want to pause for just a few minutes and make note of the week’s highlights. There is much for which to be thankful… First, on a…

TToT – Tentative and Ambivalent

I’m having a bit of trouble with my list of thankfuls this week. It’s not that I don’t have things for which I am thankful. I do. But I’m feeling kind of ambivalent about a few of them. I thought about skipping this week, since I couldn’t quite get my brain around it, but then…

The Great Clean and Purge Project – Final Recap

Well, we’re here. We’re finished. OK, maybe we’re not ever going to be finished. It’s not like we’re going to do a huge Clean and Purge and then just…not. But this long-awaited and much-need effort has reached its end. From this point forward we are on the maintenance program. And there is good reason for…

When Life Gets in the Way – A Preamble

Two years ago, my Husband and I halfheartedly talked about considering a new start. Perhaps one or both of us were ready to think about looking for something new, something that would allow us to stretch and to grow. We very tentatively started to broach the subject of what we might like to do, where we would look, and what…

TToT – Continued Progress

It doesn’t seem possible that a week has passed already. I can’t say I’m happy about how fast these days have flown. I need this summer to stretch long before us…we have a lot to do. And that’s exactly what we’ve been doing this week – a lot. We’ve continued to work on our Great…

TToT – Still Here Living Life

I’m not sure how it happened, exactly, but it’s been two weeks since I posted anything. Intentional? Not really. I guess we’ve just been busy living life and trying to wind down this school year. This interminably long and drawn out school year, thank you very much Winter From Hell. But we’re getting there –…

TToT – Good Deals

It’s spring time. Finally. With spring comes the draw of the mountain sanctuary and thus, the need for new hiking boots. Last weekend, the Hub, Zilla, and I took a lovely Sunday drive to an outlet mall near us to check out the boot store. Not only did we enjoy a beautiful afternoon drive, but…

TToT – Dreams of Spring

I had a dream the other night. It was about eggs. Yes, eggs. I dreamt that I found two eggs fallen from a tree – miraculously unbroken – and returned them gently and safely to the nest. That was pretty much the whole thing, but it was vivid. I asked the Hub what he thought…

TToT – Falling into Place

Another week has flown by…and it’s been a big one. I don’t even think I’m going to need those Guard Virgins this time around! It does not escape my notice that there seems to be sort of a theme or motif running through our lives right now. As I talked about in my last post,…
