Hmm…

What do you think gets better with age? Let’s see… stress, anxiety, the feeling of being overwhelmed, and the list can go on and on and on LOL

The last month has been difficult to say the least. Between a tornado, daughter in law’s car accident, family coming from out of state to help, family arriving for a visit from Washington state and adult children having problems, I wish I knew where to start. We are still working on clean up from theContinue reading “Homesteading Isn’t Easy…”

For The Sake Of Harmony

What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? I can’t think of anything I’d let go of. I love everything about my life and at this moment everything seems to be working harmoniously. If I had to choose anything though, I’d say social media. I don’t use much social media anymore. IContinue reading “For The Sake Of Harmony”

The tshirt is one I bought many years ago, an outline of my home state of Oklahoma that says home.Continue reading “One Outfit”

Self Care?

How do you practice self-care? Lately that’s not a thing. With trying to fix our home after the tornado and all the animals I haven’t taken the time. Use to my self care routine included spending time outdoors with my animals or just sitting in a quiet room soaking in the silence. I definitely missContinue reading “Self Care?”

12 Hours of Hell…

Just when you think you are starting to succeed in your life, life decides to kick you in the teeth. I can honestly say I did not expect 12 hours of hell. We made a 7-hour trip to Missouri last weekend to celebrate our youngest grandson’s 1st birthday. My daughter and middle grandson went withContinue reading “12 Hours of Hell…”

Kids make you laugh

Describe one of your favorite moments. Traveling with my 3 year old grandson can be interesting to say the least. He’s so quick and will talk your ear off. While traveling yesterday to see my oldest and his family, my middle grandson told his mom that he was sick. She said “you’re sick?” He saysContinue reading “Kids make you laugh”
