I’ve been crafting a lot for the last few weeks. It feels good to be creating things again. This morning I also got around to framing a couple more of my grandmother’s lace pieces. I have two more to go but they need large frames that I’m going to have to get custom made. I’m [...]

So, you can’t see it, but I moved this site to a whole different web provider. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVED my old server company. They were UBER friendly to not-geeks like me. I’m keeping a different website over there because they’re awesome. They made it really easy to learn and do everything that [...]

I’ve spent probably 18 hours in the last week going through stuff in my junk room, bagging it, and yesterday we put all of them out on the driveway for pick up by a local charity today. Minime needs a book case, so I started there and emptied one. I don’t know why I haven’t [...]

Wow time flies. Time for a random thoughts post. Christmas was good. It was hard too. New Years was harder. Good riddance to last year. Really. Too much loss, death, sickness, brokeness. For PTSD’d me it was all kind of the last straw. I got a therapist. A really good therapist that makes me think, [...]

Wow, I’ve had an overnight to digest that Thanksgiving was kind of a very successful experiment. I looked around for a few weeks for the couple of recipes that I made. We will be entertaining Others for Christmas, so I had one holiday meal as a vegetarian to find the perfect recipes. I didn’t do [...]

This past week was horrible. My best friend learned what it was like to lose a parent. Her father lived in Guatemala. She got the news and was on a flight six hours later. There’s very little that I can do for her from here. She told me it was payback for getting divorced while [...]

Wow, time flies. In the last couple of weeks I’ve gone from the standard meat/junk/dairy/American diet, to being about 95% vegan. The funny thing is I don’t really miss meat. Two things happen when you give up meat/dairy. Roomie and I have both noticed how much more energy we have. Along with that, I’m sleeping [...]

My birthday was this week. It’s been a mostly fun week with a lot of work stuck in between. I have the week off from my job, and Monday is Labor Day so that’s 10 full job free days. I’ve done a cursory check of my e-mail every day but there’s nothing there that can’t [...]

I don’t know why. Maybe it’s my analytical side. I do work with numbers for a living. Every once in a while I get to thinking about how much of my life has passed with or without someone. I remember thinking when I was 16 that I had spent 1/2 of my life without a [...]

I was requested, by the person that I’m avoiding writing about, to start blogging again… so let’s be a little random… I made this today. Except I used organic whole wheat flour, organic bananas, and a little milk instead of the sour cream. It was Better Than Mom’s, even without the chocolate chips. You really [...]
