Wow, everybody, thanks for all of the support yesterday after I showed you my messy house. Neil wants to know how much I paid all of you to tell me “it’s ok.” Heh. I can take all of yesterday’s chatter to mean that most people have messy houses and I am perfectly normal -or- I […]

Disorganized
People keep telling me how “organized” I am. I hear it a lot, and it always makes me laugh. In fact, I can pretty much guarantee that if Neil is reading this right now, he’s laughing his head off at the idea. Kind of like this: 🤣 It’s true that I am surrounded by microcosms […]

I don’t have a whole lot to talk about today, so how about I share another recipe? This one is actually a few recipes in one. I call it Salsa Chicken Soup, and it has its basis in leftovers. Gotta love that. In order to make the soup, you have to first make Slow […]

This morning I resisted the urge to pull the covers over my head and linger in bed another 15 minutes. I have an urge to accomplish things, starting with a leisurely cup of coffee, an english muffin with cream cheese, and a moment or two to poke my head in here. I have to admit […]

Eight more days. That’s what the chain says. I have yet to break out the spreadsheet where I plan what I will be gifting this year. I haven’t locked my bedroom door and set out everything I’ve already bought/made and arranged them into little piles on the floor so that I may see what gaps […]

We had a surprise visit today from Neil’s brother & his wife (the ones who had the party last week). They had just been to pick up the newest member of their family and were bringing her home for the first time. Isn’t she a cutie? I’m not really a dog person, but she had […]

Did I speak too soon yesterday? Did I anger the weather gods? It snowed again this morning – still is snowing, in fact – and it’s decided to stick around. I can appreciate what a fun sight this is to a little person, I really can. And I can even enjoy this kind of thing […]
