Ways to bring a little more light into your home
I am a little late today, but I had to wait until it was dark to write tonight’s post. Today, I wanted to share ways I (we) bring a little more light into our house in the dark days of winter. As we approach the day of the year that gives us the fewest hours…

One way I surprised myself this year…
As I recently said in a text to someone, “I am an emotional basketball.” Now, what I meant was basketcase, but autocorrect knew better, apparently. What does this mean?

October Journal Challenge: Things that went well today
In today’s age of ‘go, go, go’, it is hard to do as Ferdinand and stop and smell the flowers. We don’t always have time to enjoy the little things in our lives, or sometimes, we are blind to them, I don’t know which it is. Things that went well today… The big one was…
