#write31days | October 5th
A few weeks ago I went to a dinner for volunteers at my church and was heading home around 9:30pm. As I was driving a warning light for low tire pressure came on, so of course, what to do started running through my head. …stop somewhere and check the tire air pressure…go home and check…

Are you dating anyone? If you’re not married this is the single person’s equivalent to the married circle question of “when are you going to have kids?” Just like the marrieds and kids question, being able to answer “no” and be ok with that status can be very hard for singles, especially as you age.…

(Continuing my Monday Musings during October’s #write31days) …a few thoughts, a little scattered… Some days I have so many words and some days it’s hard to actually put words to all of my thoughts that would make sense to anyone else. This weekend was one of those times. I’ve mentioned on the regular about my…

This year I turned 40 and it seemed leading up to the day I kept seeing the number popping up in various places. I didn’t post this on my actual birthday in August, but feel it gives some story and insight to this month of S I N G L E. Never did I hesitate…

Here we are again, the calendar has flipped to October 1st. I know I’m getting older because I keep thinking how quickly the time is passing.

…a few thoughts, a little scattered… Lately in talking with or texting with my friends I’ve caught myself saying on more than one occasion, “welcome to my stream of consciousness“. It just seems like there’s lots going on and it’s all over the place, from trivial or mundane to significant. But, isn’t that life… Here’s…
Read MoreWhat I’m Wearing ~ First Day of “Fall” which still screams Summer
So, today is the first day of Fall, but around these parts it’s still very much Summer. In fact this September has seemed like July. I thought I might get a sunburn walking Auggie on a potty break the other day at lunch while outside for less than 5 minutes. This day also feels like…
Read MoreMonday Musings ~ Skinny Shamed/Healthy Gut
…a few thoughts, a little scattered… So, I posted this on my Facebook last night and it sparked a lot of conversation, both comments and separate messages and texts…. Throughout my life I’ve been “skinny shamed” for being thin. Some complementary and some certainly not nice. Lately I’ve been asked about losing weight, again some…
Read MoreWhat I’m Wearing ~ Outtakes
I am not a fashion blogger. I’ve never wanted a blog that was full of links for me to get paid because I don’t wear “new” things all the time. Lots of what I wear is several seasons old and comes from Marshall’s/TJ Maxx and you can’t link those up anyway. Also, I don’t have…
Read MoreMonday Musings ~ Summer Lights
…a few thoughts, a little scattered… This summer I was outside lots of evenings, and so many places had lights strung in the trees and across the patios. I kept noticing them… There’s something about summer nights I love… I don’t even realize what time it is because if it’s still daylight, I think…
