Well no, thats not really true. There’s still no snow out there. & it hasn’t even been THAT cold out there lately. (I probably just jinxed us all with that last statement. Sorry New England, I do hope winter is nice to us. But seriously, I want to go snowboarding!) But it certainly is starting to feel [...]

I found this on this blog. It might be a little cheesy, but it might also be just what you needed to hear. Especially on a Sunday evening, as we’re gearing up for Monday morning. I know I can always use a reminder. http://www.marcandangel.com/2011/08/30/12-things-happy-people-do-differently/ Here’s to another week! (But seriously, where the hell did this weekend [...]

A healthy dinner complete with salad. Brownies & Ice Cream. Catching up with family. A competitive game of cribbage. The warmth of a cozy fire on the first chilly fall night. Laughing. Feeling content. Feeling connected. Good conversation. Feeling loved. Making plans for future adventures. Indulging in memories. Simplicity at its finest. Coming home to [...]

…Abe Lincoln pressed into my thigh in the form of a penny (???…yup, I’m with you on that one) …thunderstorms in my forecast …no clean bowls for my breakfast …a little note from Sir Nicholas as he’d gone off to work at the wee hours of the morning …excitement that, as far as three day [...]

Yup, I’m serious. & I know at least a couple of people who will agree with me.Mm hm, come on don’t be shy. Though there was a time when I would have laughed too. But truthfully, I’ve become a bit obsessed with flossing lately. I’m actually a little bit surprised that I don’t keep any [...]

Doesn’t that just sound heavenly? It’s pretty terrific actually. I’ll have to bring my camera with me one day. On my way home from work today, I decided to take a detour down memory lane…past the old house we used to rent, past the reservoir across the street and the dam we used to jump [...]

home. not quite finished yet. but i love it.
Oh how I love those little moments that remind me why I am happy, why life is good & why I push through those tough times. Little moments like: when a little kid who has no reason to trust me comes & puts his little chubby warm hand in mine when a song I want or [...]

I love laughing. I love laughing because it is my latest & only form of exercise these days. I love laughing with friends & I love when a stranger breaks the monotony of the day by handing me an unexpected funny moment. I love the contagious laugh that seems to start at the tips of [...]
