We are back at it again! Are we insane? Probably. Does it matter? Meh! You only get one life. So, hubby and I originally were planning to come back to Illinois and settle down and buy a house. We even put an offer in on one. The night that we put the offer in, my husband turned to me at 3 am and after asking if I was still awake, […]
National November Writing Month. NaNoWriMo. Ahhhh yessss… This year I am going to start and finish writing a romance novel…in one month. 30 days. Yes you read that correctly. #nanowrimo2021 Working title is highly subject to change. I have been a member of NaNoWriMo for 5 years(!) but only actually participated the year I had first heard about it (a little late to the party at that!). This year I […]
🍂🍁🍂 Saw Anne from Madame Writer did this tag on her blog HERE and she linked where she found the tag originally at the beginning of her post. Anne said was tagging anyone that wanted to try it and so yep here we are!

So how did my reading go in July? Well, I had a LOT of life stuff that happened-both good and bad-and that super affected my reading habits. On the plus side though, I took part in the Olympic Games Readathon and that helped me read a little more than I otherwise would have. “The Secret” by: Rhonda Byrne Read this one because I had watched the movie and wanted to […]
Monsieur Dexter 10/13/04 – 06/26/21 Dexter was the best buddo wuddo anyone could have ever asked for. He got Jake and I through several moves, was the ring bearer in our wedding, got us through a lot of really bad health problems, he accompanied me around the house all the time and listened to audiobooks with me, and fell asleep happily when Jake would play music. We had his DNA […]

Yes I am diving into updating you on some of the posts I had posted about originally four years ago and here we are with the update of one of the very first series posts I did; my minimalism series.

Here I am four years after my original post (to see the list of 30 books I owned from 4 years ago, click HERE.), reflecting on how things have shifted and changed for me and hubby over the years in regard to our books. Since we got married, we have gone from living in a house to various apartments, a condo, an RV, and now a house again. Obviously our […]
Click HERE to see my post from nearly 4 years ago if you would like to see the pieces I used to own versus the ones I currently own. Wow can you believe I first posted about my minimal jewelry collection nearly four years ago? Time flew! Most of my jewelry pieces are still gifts given to me by my friends and family. Let’s see as my tastes have evolved […]
After being in our RV for roughly one and a half years, we have decided to give up the full time RV lifestyle. It was a super easy decision for us for several reasons. First of all, a very much needed reminder, I want to say that if you think RVing sounds great and want to go for it-do it! Obviously what works for us may not work for you […]
