My Quest Will Cheer Me Up
I feel bummed out. Why do I feel bummed? Life seems overwhelming right now. I am sure a lot of people are feeling that way. Overwhelmed, drained, exhausted… is 2022 over yet? Will it get any better? I guess this feeling started the last Monday in January. My husbands brother passed away… due to Covid/pneumonia … Continue reading My Quest Will Cheer Me Up
And So We Begin…Again – Planning and Reflecting

I can see the medium sized font now!!! I am so excited! I got two pairs - one … Continue reading More Changes!!

I have been thinking about life vests, aka, life jackets, a lot lately…. Ever since Thursday when I went tubing down the Arkansas River. (Read my Adventures in Love #3 blog for that story). I even googled life vests and read about the different ones and which ones are the best. I learned about the … Continue reading Life Vests and Life Lessons

This is July (Already)
The first day of July 2021. Can you believe that July is already here? This year is flying by like a speeding bullet. There are only 176 more days til Christmas. That's less than half a year.
