Warming Up for Traveling Days
It’s been a bit busy this week with final electrical work being done on the kitchen, changing of seasonal clothes around in the closet, yoga and tennis, plus preparing for my long weekend ladies’ trip to Palma Mallorca. I haven’t been to Spain for a proper visit in quite some time, so it is nice…

Kitchen In (95%)
They started on Thursday last week and came back on Friday to do more. They still need to return sometime this coming week to bring our wine fridge, but otherwise it’s in!! 🎉 We still need to remove the old fridge from the space, but after spending Friday afternoon, evening and all of Saturday organizing…

Kitchen Out!
Our first proper renovation in the house has begun. The kitchen is an interesting place in my history. For me, it has very mixed emotions. My unhappiest and happiest memories are in a kitchen. Before my family, I would be punished in the kitchen. The grand event that got me moved out of my second…

These are the days…
…that the Lord hath made. Let us rejoice and be glad in them. 🎶 When I was young, spring and fall were my least favorite seasons because it meant rain and allergies while summer and winter were the days of vacation. Now, I barely tolerate summer as the heat is no longer my friend, winter…

Braids!
So… I thought I had sworn off doing braids again after having three goes before – each lasting fewer days than the one before. My first round was done at the same place as the two following, but by a different braider. I loved them and only took them out after two weeks because I…

TGIF!

Reflections & Goals 2023~2024
Since this is likely to be the last chance I’ll get for some proper time to sit on my own to reflect on the past year and goal set for the next, I am using this week to get a little ahead. Besides, I never was/am one to stick to the “normal” patterns of life…

On the Road to Healthy…
So, remember when I said I was building up to 108 Sun Salutation As? Well, I did it. I actually finished a few days early because my ankle, back, and legs were starting to get a bit whacked out of shape from the repetitive practice. Still, the goal was achieved and I actually felt really…
