We set the alarm for 5 am to sort ourselves out before the anticipated 8 am arrival of the packers. In all of our previous moves they showed up first thing in the morning. At 9 am we were getting antsy, they still hadn't showed, called or emailed. Then the husband got a text: packing … Continue reading The Pack-Out Saga

Life Note on Preparing to Move
Nothing is quite working out the way we thought but it's still working out. 🙂 I am thankful and hopeful for what we have experienced and for what is coming our way.
On A Positive Note
A little retail therapy this week produced a string of lighted clips that are displaying my bookmarks much better than the string and tape throw together I had them on previously.

The Hits Keep On Coming
March has been a roller coaster. Enjoyed a nice weekend earlier in the month for our 9 year wedding anniversary and were able to see some family which was lovely. And then my best friend since 1986 died from no known causes. We have to wait for toxicology to come back to determine, hopefully, what … Continue reading The Hits Keep On Coming
Face Mask – Covid Commentary

Today, we are flying out to Louisiana to pick up the truck we bought in December that is finally finished and … Continue reading Content Change
Existential Crisis

My sphere of influence has cut down to husband, parents, daughter-in-law, … Continue reading Existential Crisis

Just Things
Every now and then the universe reminds me about the importance of things. Or perhaps the un-importance of things. Today I had to remind myself that the "thing" that just broke was just a thing. Is it easily replaced? No, not unless I am heading back to Sicily soon and it was handcrafted. It was … Continue reading Just Things
