Work has been crazy busy. I have been working on an excel file to the point I could barely hold my eyes open. Yesterday was beautiful so I thought I needed to separate and step out. I pulled my exhausted brain away from work and jumped outside. WOW. My smile was shining as bright as …
I have not written in a while. Work has been super busy and by the end of my day, I'm too tired to do any more on the computer. But today I am determined! Last week we received inches upon inches of snow. I hated every flake of it. Even though I work from home, …
Today has been 13 years since Chubs died. Will this be a lucky year? Chubs was the first to pass from our immediate family. There are times when scents or songs take you to a moment with your loved one gone. I know when I smell Chantilly powder, it takes me right to my sweet …
I love French onion soup. I consider myself a bit of a snob for it, as I'm not a soup eater. However, there was this local restaurant that served the absolute BEST French onion soup I ever had. After 45 years in business, and thanks to Covid, the restaurant was closed and sold. I know …
If you're a true NKOTB fan, then you know who Alma Wahlberg is. Many years ago she released some of her favorite recipes in how she fed nine kids on a single income. While inspiring, I found recipes of hers to try. I have made this recipe according to her details, but yesterday I decided …
Are we hours away from 2020 being over? Can we say "Hindsight 20/20" and really mean it? I'm over this year. This will be my final post till 2021. If I were a betting woman, I would bet 100 out of 100 people would say they are over this year, as well. How could a …
Pun intended on my title. I wish my hip would allow me to run. Will it ever again? However, Sara invited me to the gym today for the final workout of the year. I donned my new running britches and was ready to go. I have a note near the end of my blog about …
How do I sum up my Christmas this year? I would have to say it's as close enough to perfect as it could be compared to the year I have had. My niece, Miss Priss, as I have called her since she was born, and I reunited this year with my brother's (her dad) cancer …
A great NFL game was coming on today. Sara asked if I wanted to do elliptical with her. YES! My weekly workout will still happen. With the holidays approaching (and more eating, of course), I thought I better kick it a little harder today. It's always important to eat a balanced meal, 80% healthy, and …
This insane year is only 18 days from reaching its end. The entire world can agree how awful it's been. This has been the year of Murphy's Law. Bad news after bad news. This blog is not a resolution, but more of a realization. As I took my Gracie Mae for a walk today, I …
