MONDAY MEANDERINGS #4 2026

Happy Monday. The biggest theme of the day (for the past few days) is the weather. I took this photo from my balcony. That's ice, not snow. The entire area is a skating rink! I have a lot to talk about today. It's been a whirlwind of a week! Remember I've been looking at cars? …

Hello, everyone! I'm back! While I enjoyed the blogging break, I'm happy to be back at it. I have a lot to catch you up on, but I'll try to be brief. The space between Thanksgiving and Christmas was nothing more than a blur. I worked a lot, but thankful for the opportunity. However, my …

Monday Meanderings #37

Hello, friends! Last week flew by in a blur. I swear time is moving faster. But now we are fully into the Christmas season with trees, decorations and lights everywhere. I don't know what the weather is like where you are, but it's turned cold here. I finally had to give in and switch on …

Hello, dear friends. This is Thanksgiving week in the U.S. and many of us will be gathering with family to celebrate the holiday. There is always SO much to be thankful for on any given day, but even more powerful when we combine our thanks with others. This past week has been a little different …

Monday Meanderings #31

Happy Monday, friends. When I saw this image, I had the strongest urge to wander down that highway. Created in Canva I hope everyone is doing okay today. It's been somewhat of a quiet week here last week so I don't have a lot to share. My daughter and family went to Broken Bow, Oklahoma …

Happy Monday! It's definitely pumpkin season. They are everywhere. It's been another busy week, but aren't they all? However, my daughter and family are going to be taking a short trip for a few days as the girls are out of school on fall break. I will be staying here, so am hoping to get …
