I have heard so many people chatting about being so sad about things they aren’t able to do right now. Things from visiting loved ones in a different state to working in their normal capacity. We are all feeling these melancholy feelings about things we ‘do all the time’ and it just isn’t the same. …
A Whole New World
I love summer mornings. I love the coolish air, walking barefoot through the dew-covered grass. I love the smells. I love the songs of the birds. I especially love the sounds of the birds. Why? Because there was a portion of my life when hearing was something I didn’t know I didn’t have. Sure- I …
The future is so bright: I’ve gotta wear Shades!
Have you ever woken up from a dream that was so real, so happy, so amazing that you just wanted to go right back to sleep so you could get back to it? I have… and rarely do I get to go ‘back’. But sometimes, reality can mirror fantasy and your fairytale dreams can exist …

Good morning from the Farmhouse! Did you see the sunrise? Morgan and I often play a game while we’re awaiting the bus. I spy with my little eye… I said- PINK! He looked at tangible things- then asked -“the clouds?” I said yup. Aren’t we lucky that God decided that sunrises and sunsets could be …

Yes, politics… but unless you are actively involved in something other than …

Good morning from Dr. Hewell’s Family dentistry… it’s our bi-annual family day at the dentist. We are always here on MLKJr day as the whole family can make it. Since I’m here, and they have coffee, I would accept that kindness and have a cup. The cups though made me smile. Mine says: “currently caffeinating.”Find …

Good morning from the Farmhouse Last night I had a bit of a start. We have the Nest system since the fire and I do like it. But we had an issue with them connecting to the internet after a brief power outage last week… I got them all fixed, except they are saying the …
Watch the pros..
If you are reading this blog, you probably know that we had a major house fire last October, and I am actively involved with the rebuilding process. I have learned so many things since the fire happened, and had many mis-truths sorted out in the process. Here are a few things I have learned while …
When it rains… Maybe it needs to.
Rain. Some people love it. Others hate it. It is life giving, and deadly. We can’t live without it, yet too much rain can make it hard to live. Rain has evolved from a simple word that can either be a noun (look at that rain!) or a verb (it’s raining) to a figurative concept …
