The weather in my neck of the woods: A beautiful sunshine filled day! Plan to re-pot a beautiful fushia geranium that is outside my back door.

I made the decision this year to simplify the holidays even more than last year. Only two boxes of house decorations made it down from the attic and only glass ball ornaments are going to make their way onto the tree (of course that includes lights and garland).

You don’t realize how much you can be consumed by something until you have the strength to walk away from it.

I realize Thursday is almost over….but we had soooo much fun today at the Wildlife Park that we had to come home and take a nap. One of the things I love the most is what Miss Sam and I did today. We went to the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park on a photo shoot. We [...]
