As a kid I started reading at an early age and continued until I was out of high school. Then life was filed with dating, marriage, divorce and raising kids. When I met my husband one of the first things I learned about him was that he was a voracious reader of fantasy ie Tolkien,... Continue Reading →
I Just Want the Snow to Melt
Hello February and hello to warmer weather this week. I'm ignoring Saturdays call for a chance of snow showers. I just want the snow and ice in my yard to melt.

What’s on Our Screens
As we bring 2025 to a close, I thought it would be fun to share a couple of shows we recently binged and absolutely loved. There’s something especially satisfying about discovering a series that completely pulls you in. The kind where “just one more episode” turns into finishing the season. So, without further ado, here’s... Continue Reading →
Christmas, Changing Seasons and Letting Go a Little.
Christmas has always been my favorite time of year. But this year, something finally clicked. This holiday is different for our family now. It has been changing for a while, really, ever since the kids became adults. The hubby and I recently found ourselves starting a new conversation about what we want Christmas to look...
