It’s hard to believe that another weekend has flown by. It seems like the days are shorter and shorter even though we have Daylight Saving Time. 🙂 My weekend was good despite feeling like a 6-cylindar engine running on 4. My kids, as always, stepped up to help as much as they could, and I […]
Lily looks like she’d like to sleep through the weekend. That idea does have some appeal, but then I wouldn’t get any chores done, not to mention fun with pens and colored pencils again. I posted that picture of my cat because I thought it would be nice to start the blog with something to

Mmmmm…Mmmmm…Mmmmm I do encourage a few deep Yoga breaths to calm anxieties and relieve stress before moving on to my comments about the dysfunctional government that blithely goes on their way in Washington while average Americans pay the price. At midnight Friday, the government shut down because an agreement could not be made on the proposed 2018
