Bliss cannot be sold. These are the last two weeks of 2020. What a year it has been. You may recall the theme for 2020 was the Year of the Tart. It certainly has been a flamboyant year. With the holidays, we've tried to focus on small items that bring us joy. That involved new…Read more Working From Home: Weeks 43 and 44

Working from Home: Week 42
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. ~ E.E. Cummings Life is meant to be a challenge. For some, their challenge is learning how to think for oneself. For others, it's perseverance. And others, it's figuring out how to accept defeat gracefully. Often in life, I've learned the most from…Read more Working from Home: Week 42
Working from Home: Week 41
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. ~ George Bernard Shaw It's been another 604,800 seconds. That's how many seconds are in a week. It's week 41 working from home. We are firmly into the Holiday season now. Are you making any new…Read more Working from Home: Week 41
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
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
Working from Home: Week 37
Strength does not lie in what you have It lies in what you can give. Another 10,080 minutes or so have gone by. That means another week. It's been an emotional week. Election results have mostly come in. If you missed the acceptance speeches, you should check them out here. Our current officials continue to…Read more Working from Home: Week 37
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. Some how I thought there would be more than that. What's happening this week? Well, it's hard to avoid the presidential election happening here.…Read more Working from Home: Week 36
Working from Home: Week 35
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. Typically, Autumn is my favorite time of year. The days are shorter, the trees provide a spectacular show, it's officially tea/soup weather, and I can layer…Read more Working from Home: Week 35
Working from Home: Weeks 33 and 34
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? Maybe as the days get shorter and shorter, time seems to move faster? I know logically that makes no sense, and it's really about how we perceive time.…Read more Working from Home: Weeks 33 and 34
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
