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

Celebrating Life: Opt Outside
There's always something beautiful outside. Today is one of the biggest shopping days in the United States. As a child, I always thought it was strange that the day after we show gratitude we shop. 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 36
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. ~ Dali Lama It's been another week. That's 10,080 minutes if you were wondering.

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. ~ Ernest Hemingway It's the last week of October.

It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves. ~ William Shakespeare Another two weeks have gone past. Where does the time go?

Celebrating Life: Fall Harvest
A thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest. ~ William Blake Wow, sometimes life just keeps throwing obstacles at you to see how strong you are.

Working from Home: Weeks 31 and 32
Anything I've ever done that ultimately was worthwhile initially scared me to death. It's been two weeks since I did a working from home update. Sometimes life events just get in the way. It starting to turn colder here, and cases of COVID are on the rise. Not surprising as more people move indoors. The…Read more Working from Home: Weeks 31 and 32
Celebrating Life with Keto Buns
Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the soul. ~ Dorothy Day By now you've probably realized the British Hubby and I enjoy eating good food.

Working from Home: Week 30
You're imperfect and you're wired for struggle, but you are worth of love and belonging. ~ Brene Brown Wow, I thought smoke from the wildfires was a bit soul crushing. Just as the rain arrived in the PNW to provide breathable air we lost not one but two great woman both to cancer. Needless to…Read more Working from Home: Week 30
Working from Home: Week 29
A river cuts through a rock not because of it's power, but it's persistence. Another week has gone by. I'm not going to sugar coat it. This has been a hard week and at time rather soul crushing. The smoky conditions are still here and haven't cleared as predicted on Monday. Our next chance of…Read more Working from Home: Week 29
