Good Enough
While living alone there’s not a lot of opportunity to speak out loud, or to hear yourself talk, so you create small practices. I call friends and family on the phone, or see a neighbor while out for a walk and stop long enough to carry on a conversation. Alone doesn’t mean you lose your…

Use Every Room
This post was sitting in drafts but most of it was copied over and published as, ‘Believer’. Here’s a snippet of what’s left. I’m sitting smack in the middle of my daughter’s old room while writing this. Mainly because it’s the coolest room in the house this time of day. In the late afternoon, the…

House of Thoughts
I’m still in love with the Golden Cup and noticed this morning you have to wait for the beep before pouring your first cup of coffee. There are some coffee makers designed to stop brewing when the carafe is removed, but this one doesn’t want it’s flow disrupted and let’s you know when it’s ready.…

Climb Every Hill
It’s difficult getting through the draft folder when I wake up each day with something to share. Today, sobriety is at the forefront of my mind because in 3 days, I’ll be 25 years sober and wouldn’t be sitting here typing without it. My daughter came to visit and said, “Somebody has a sober birthday…

Spark Your Heart
I’ve taken time this week to pay attention to what sparks my heart. I went into town for a haircut and walking back to my truck I pondered, “What would water your heart on the way home?” I drove straight to my happy place, Hill Country Water Gardens. Walking through this time of year is…

I’m clearing out the draft folder as a part of my Sacred Bow for this year. I wrote about Sacred Bow in 2020 on another blogsite, but it’s so much more than one post. For me it’s a practice that starts the first of November and runs through the end of the year. I’ll be…

The Right Way
In a world of automation, I love making the Golden Cup and am so pleased that I bought a coffee maker to enjoy during these cooler months. This morning it’s 47°F here in Texas, (WooHoo!), and here’s a few things I’ve noticed that it doesn’t do, compared to regular coffee makers. It Doesn’t Have a…

Different in Me
My birthday was Saturday, the same day as the solar eclipse. I drove to one of my favorite coffee shops/bakery and ordered a Dirty Horchata to drink and of course, CAKE! Then, I walked next door to one of my favorite shops and fell in love with a candle to bring home. My truck was…

A Good Gasp
I have three pairs of sneakers used during the day and spend a lot of my morning looking for the right pair for what I wish to do. The yard shoes are strictly for working in the yard and filthy, so there’s no telling where I stepped out of them last. The indoor sneaker suits…

Better Done Than Perfect
I thought about turning it off before slipping into bed, but left it on. The ceiling fan above the bed is still set for summer cooling, but I’m not sure summer is still here. This morning when my feet touched the floor, it felt cool and so did the temperature of the bedroom. The fan…
