Just to be clear, this isn’t me.
She’s much cuter. And I like her swimsuit better.
This, however, IS me.
On the beach.
I’m missing something. And no, it’s not sunscreen. It’s a NOVEL. Yep, I made the mistake of going to the beach without anything to read.
Hey friends,
I’m hanging at Disney Springs with my grand daughter Addie….
And yes, I’ve probably spent waaaay too much money…but I’m saving $4.99 to preorder Can’t Buy Me Love, the next book in the rebooted Deep Haven series! (Out tomorrow, so I don’t have long to wait..yay!!)
What book you say?
Hello from the beach!
Listen, I know a lot of you are cold. I’m praying for Texas and Minnesota and all the other cold, blizzardly places. Frankly, I love snow, and sitting by a cozy fire reading a book. But it can be dangerous…stay inside. Bundle up. Drink some cocoa. This too, shall pass.
Your ice cream cone is out there,
Remember the fun Dr. Suess tale, Horton Hears a Who? I loved reading that book (and later my son starred in a Suessical version of said book), but my favorite line is when all the Whos, who live on a speck on a dandelion, start to raise their voice as one saying,
So, you know how it went…last year was the crazy year.
The year we all found ourselves doing something different. Staying at home. Homeschooling, maybe. Reading more. Making foods we hadn’t tried. Mostly, living outside our comfort zone, right?

I dunno about you, but it’s nearly three weeks into 2021 and already I need a little time out. With Christmas, my dear Mother-in-law’s home going, too much travel, and the news (don’t get me started!)…I’m ready to escape to someplace happy.
A place like (you guessed it) Deep Haven. “Where all the women are strong,
I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving! Listen, I know it was quiet (if you lived in a state where you had to shelter in place). I agree. I cooked for 4 people instead of my usual, beloved 14, but on the bright side, because it was so quiet, I didn’t burn anything. Almost didn’t feel right…
It’s finished!!
Hey friends,
This is today’s view. I know you’re thinking…snow? But what I see are WINDOWS. And light. And occasionally ducks and geese. But most of all…a long-awaited dream nearly finished.
We’ve lived in our current house for 4 years, and when we moved in,
Happy October! It’s crazy how fast this year is going. (But admittedly, I’m ready for 2021, right?)
I don’t know what you’re up to, but around here I’m up to my ears in sheetrock dust! Which means that we are NEARLY done with my office addition. I’m SO EXCITED. Here are a few pix of the progress…
So, how’s your Labor Day going?
Here’s, it’s raining. There goes the BBQ.
Naw, we actually planned on working outside all day, so we’re doing a little fist bump.
What are we working on, you say?
Finally, our office addition is being built, and today, hubs installed in floor heat.
