A Five Senses Check-In (Omicron Edition)
Hello there. A little while back I started doing these senses check-ins (I’ve done two so far, this one and this one) and I thought it might be time for another one. This one will be a little bit different than the rest, as I wasn’t outside, amongst the sights and smells of nature, but… Continue reading

A Small Prayer for You in the (Not So) New Year
We are ten days into this new year, which is about the time when the “new” starts to wear off. We are back into our routines, back into the stress the holidays (ideally) took us away from, back into the hustle, bustle, and (at times) chaos.

5 Things We Don’t Have to Do (List-cember #9)
I feel like a lot of end of year posts tell of things you did, and New Year’s posts tell of things you want to do or think you should. But for this last List-cember post, I wanted to share five things we don’t have to do—even though the world suggests we should. There are… Continue reading

The Tuesdays of 2021 (List-cember #8)
At the beginning of this year, one of my goals was to take a picture on every Tuesday of 2021. Now, I will admit right off the bat that I didn’t remember to take a photo every Tuesday, but of the 52, I only missed six. So I’d say that’s pretty good. Looking back at… Continue reading

Since we are in the spirit of recommendations this week, and because I never get tired of reading lists of random things people like/bought/just thought were cool, I thought I’d share a handful of things I’m glad I bought this year. It’s a little bit of everything, which I personally find to be the most… Continue reading

5 Things I Tried this Year (List-cember #1)
Hello and happy December List-cember to you! I have made it a tradition on my blog that in December every post is centered around lists, and here we are again, in year six! (That almost rhymed.) You can check out some of the previous List-cember posts here, otherwise let’s get started! By nature I am very curious, and this bleeds… Continue reading

This Thanksgiving, Right Now
At Thanksgiving time, it’s common practice to take note of what you’re thankful for. It helps pull you into the present moment, as we often spend too much time looking ahead—looking for what’s next. Thanksgiving says, look at everything you have right now and worry about the future later. Which is good. But lately I’ve… Continue reading

Setting “Should” Boundaries
A few weeks ago I got a notification informing me that my blog has been active for eight years. I always take these anniversaries with an asterisk, because technically I started my blog, wrote one post and then forgot about it for an entire year. BUT it was that decision to start it eight years… Continue reading
