Hello, Everyone! I hope you’re enjoying a lovely weekend and can sit back and relax. Who doesn’t love weekends?

Even as an adult, I’m horse crazy, …

Hello, Everyone! Here we are in October, and the months are whipping by, but the cooler weather keeps me indoors and firmly planted in front of my laptop, which is a good thing.

Summer is unofficially over, school has started, the days are shorter and I’m crawling out of bed without the benefit of the sun, the weather’s cooler forcing me to stay indoors more than I’d like, but at least it compels me to spend more time writing. It …

Hello, Everyone! If you’re like me, you’re in the midst of a 3-day weekend. It’s so nice to have these mini-vacations every few months, though I don’t know that it’s much of a vacation because I use it to catch up on the projects I’ve been ignoring all summer—like extra cleaning around the house—but I …

Hello, Everyone! In my part of the world, summer has slipped away overnight. We’ve had a couple of mornings when I’ve wanted to turn on the furnace. Brrr!
