From Cookie to Duchess: My husband and I have taken a few hits to the heart recently. We had to say goodbye to two of our three dogs within two months. The house has been too calm and too quiet for weeks. Some may feel it’s too soon to bring a new soul into the equation, but when it’s time you know. Plus how many sweet faces can I look at before I cave? Apparently, not many.
Yesterday we officially adopted Cookie from a local rescue. She starts her new chapter in life as Duchess. She’s a whirlwind of fresh air. Her and Reva were friends at first sight. Reva is an absolute saint. She shows so much patience and restraint when dealing with her new little sister. And Duchess eggs Reva on until they’re both sprinting through the yard like puppies. I hope they continue to be good influences on each other as everyone settles into the new family dynamic.
Duchess is so sweet, and our third official rescue adoption. I cannot stress enough how much I adore rescues, people that work at and support them, and their mission. I will always rescue. Each dog is adorable, hilarious, and loving in their own unique way. Some may need a little extra patience and understanding but don’t most of us as well?

Some Fall Weekend Farm Fun!
Never have I ever… worked on a farm. DRINK! Another check mark on the bucket list for this old bird. This season’s adventure is Fall on the Farm! I lucked out with a pretty cool sister in law that listens to and looks out for me. She caught the hiring advert and forwarded it on…
Is it the Feet?
So I’ve been investing more time in Instagram lately. And I’ve gotten a fairly large number of views of one of my videos. And I can’t help but wonder, is it the feet? Or is it the comment at the beginning? Are they expecting drama? What’s the hook? I made it because it was cute…
What I did this summer
I stretched my mental and emotional muscles and tried something new. I met awesome people that talk to insects and flowers. We created beautiful things, nurtured nature, and made lots of people smile.
Garden Glory
I’ve been fortunate enough to meet some fun and creative people while working under the sun.
BLOOMING BEAUTIFUL!
Repotted my orchids a few months ago after moving into a new house. Finally found their favorite window! Currently being treated to quite a show.
Life ~ It Happens
I quit my full time job almost a year ago. I STILL don’t regret it. I thought long and hard about my decision and decided family, fun, and mental health would be my priorities. One of the best decisions of my life. The last few weeks, as spring has started to emerge, I’m reflective and…
