“That’s the thing about books. They let you travel without moving your feet.”-Jhumpa Lahiri That quote holds so much truth! In a year when travel has been nearly nonexistent, I have traveled around the world, backward and forward through time, visited places conceived only in the realms of deep imagination, and have immersed myself deeply [...]
What's Up Lately. Episode 003. I'm sitting here on a Sunday morning waiting for the storms to roll in. I hope that you're having a lovely Sunday. This past week has found me returning to some moments of self-care. Pilates. If you'll recall from my last update, I was on the final push for [...]
What's Up Lately? Episode 002. Since I'm mostly popping in with updates, it doesn't feel right to call them "Friday Faves" and also they may not always fall on a Friday. Today, however, it does. And since I need different titles... Episode 002. Secretly I'm hoping that Episode 007 will have something really exciting to [...]
Dreams. How many of you think about your dreams? I'm not talking about your hopes and wishes, goals and ambitions, types of dreams. Although those are important too! https://www.instagram.com/p/BgjZAyhAfqs/?taken-by=amy.lyon.smith I'm talking about the ones that happen while you're sleeping. Do you ever stop to think about what they might be saying? Well, I do. Last [...]
Friday! Edition 25. Sometimes I have to ask myself what happened to the week. Teeth. Well, this one was filled with dental cleanings for me and the teens. I was at the dentist office 3 days in a row! Yesterday Miss Sunshine had her final orthodontic evaluation. Baby teeth are gone and molds were [...]
Friday. Edition 24. Hey, ya'll! It's Friday! I hope you've had an amazing week so far. This has been my last semi-mellow week before gearing back up for the return to school of my teenagers. The next three weeks will slowly become filled with dental cleanings, orthodontist trips, doctor check-ups, sports physicals, haircuts, clothes [...]
Friday. Edition 23. This week has been a strange week for me. But here we are on Friday! And I definitely have some faves to share today! Big Mr was invited to go to Myrtle Beach with a friend (luuuckyyyy) and left on Saturday. He'll finally return home sometime tomorrow. Mr. D is helping his [...]
Friday. Edition 22. Do you ever have a week that seems like a blur? My week was chaotic. There are still so many moving parts with decisions to make, things to complete, and places to be. However, I did find beauty in those moments. Here are some of my faves for the week. Coffee [...]
Friday. Edition 21. I can't believe that I've already been back from the beach for a week! Time flies when you're a mama to three teens and new puppy! Time for my weekly round-up of faves! Surfboard Carrier. One of the items that my hubby found made his and Miss Sunshine's trip across the [...]
Friday. Edition 18. It's hard for me to believe that I've already been home for a week! The girlie went to her first sleep-away camp last Sunday... 3 nights! So there was the hustle and bustle of preparing for that. Which included rounding up some summertime clothes. You'd think she was a growing teenager [...]
