In a controversy the instant we feel anger we have already eased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves. Sure, I bet you thought since Day 1 involved no knitting it wouldn't take me another week to post about Day 2? I thought that too! Then I remembered I have two calendars…Read more Craftvent: Day 2

Celebrating Life: Tea
We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do. ~ Mother Teresa There is so much in life we could complain about. When you actively look for the small celebrations in life, you find you have more to celebrate. A few Fridays ago, I was celebrating just surviving the week. Every…Read more Celebrating Life: Tea
Working from Home: Week 40
To find yourself, thing for yourself. ~ Socrates Forty weeks ago, I started working from home. That same week the British Hubby also started working from home. Has it really been 40 weeks? Well, the kitties have adjusted to us being mostly home all together. They all have their own unique daily rituals to reaffirm…Read more Working from Home: Week 40
Craftvent Begins
Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace. ~ Dalai Lama December 1 marks the start of reusable advent calendars. The first known advent calendar dates back to the year 1851.

Tomorrow Never Dies and M
The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success. ~ Elliot Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies Our Friday night Bond movie fest continued this week with Tomorrow Never Dies. The second movie was a suggestion from the Malabrigo Junkie group, M. We enjoyed the second movie more than the first. Maybe Pierce Brosnan…Read more Tomorrow Never Dies and M

As an adult, I recognize just how commercialized everything has become. The British Hubby often calls this country, The United…Read more Celebrating Life: Opt Outside
Working from Home: Week 39
So often in life things that you regard as an impediment turn out to be great good fortune. ~ Ruth Bader Ginsburg Some weeks drag on and other weeks you have to hold on for the ride. Last week had some challenges. While it might seem like we all want an easy life, wouldn't that…Read more Working from Home: Week 39
Golden Eye
" I enjoy a spirited ride as much as the next girl." ~ Golden Eye This past week was challenging for the British Hubby and I. As challenging as it was, we both believe life is meant to be challenging. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. A dance party, hot shower, keto pizza and…Read more Golden Eye
Celebrating Life: Just glad it’s Friday
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. ~ Confucius Hello dear followers. It's Friday again. For many of you it's already Saturday. I had a different post planned for today. When I was proof reading it, that post just didn't feel right. Why pretend everything is awesome…Read more Celebrating Life: Just glad it’s Friday
Working from Home: Week 38
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much. ~ Oscar Wilde Week 38. Each week this number goes up. Part of me still can't believe I'm working from home, and this isn't some colossal joke. (Maybe I've read too much Terry Pratchett? Is that even possible?) When I first started working from home, I…Read more Working from Home: Week 38
