More Mood Trackers
I’ve not been doing a good job keeping up with my blogging, but I do actively keep up with my journaling. And I’ve found that the journaling fulfills a lot of the needs that I was previously meeting by constantly updating my journal without the dopamine addiction to comments and interactions. That being said, I…
Read More3 Blocks Away
So proud of myself. I’ve actually been making progress on my spooky crazy quilt! I’m down to needing to complete the sewing of just 3 blocks. Of course, I’ll still have some embroidery work to do between the blocks, plus basting, quilting, and binding, but I MIGHT actually be able to get this quilt done…
Read More10 on the 10th – March
Thanks to the lovely Daenel over at Living Outside the Stacks, I’ve discovered one of those fun old-school Blog Questionnaires. And I’m super excited to participate. This one is called 10 on the 10th, and is a list of 10 questions that we can answer to tell you more about ourselves each month. It’s hosted…

We got loads of ice (and a little snow) last Wednesday and Thursday. Enough that I got 2 days of working from home with my tiny human in tow. Fortunately for me, the hubs was also off on Thursday, so he was able to hang out with Mil during parts of the day, allowing me…
Read MoreValentine Crafts with Milli
With Valentine’s Day approaching there are hearts everywhere at our house – from the (no longer a Christmas) tree to the crafts. We’re decorating everything in pinks and reds, and covering all the surfaces in hearts of all sizes. Hearts have even taken over our craft space with stickers, doilies, and a variety of other…
Read MoreOn the Farm
Even with the cold and the snow, life is still happening on the farm. The hubs has a couple of cows that are out of sync with the rest of the herd, and that means winter calves. Mil has enjoyed getting to see the babies. One of the cows decided to be difficult with her…
Read MoreWIP Wednesday
After about a year long hiatus, I finally got back in my sewing space a couple weeks ago. Granted, that was mostly to convert the space to do crafting with Milli, but that meant cleaning up in the sewing area. And somehow, the easiest way to clean up my sewing projects is to finish them,…
