Ok, y’all. I’m back after six months of not posting. I have to admit that I have not been doing much Thing-ing this year. I have read a couple of books for Read or Rid, but mostly, I’ve been reading very trashy romance novels that I checked out on the library’s Overdrive App. (And I’m…
Here it is, another new year, and I’m attempting the Blog Regularly Thing again. I have a better outline of topics prepared than I did last time and I’m not doing any extra contract work on the weekends so I feel like I’m more set up for success this time. Before I go on to…
I am not working on any Things at the moment. I am finally coming out of the depression, I think (yay, medicine!), and so I’m still regrouping. I am having so much fun with my bullet journal though. I have created some collections about the Forty-Two Things and I’m trying to decide which 30-day challenge I…
You guys, I found a new hobby. It’s a creative outlet. And, no, it’s not one of the Things. But it will help me plan and organize my life and do the Things so I think it still isn’t too much of a distraction from the Things. Besides, the Forty-Two Things are not the boss of…
I’ve hesitated writing about this topic for a while, but it just keeps knocking on my heart and mind. It won’t go away so I’m going to have to address it. Let’s get right to it. I have bipolar disorder, with a severe anxiety component. (I’ve never actually asked if I have a second diagnosis…
Well, I’ve made it another year around the sun, and one year closer to my age 42 deadline. I am 37 years old. (How did that happen?!) So I’ve got five years left. That sounds like so much time, but I know I can’t expect to cram in all the Things in the last two…
Ok, I know I missed a week, but I was on a really good roll there for a while so I’m going to try to keep going. As long as I end up with 22 posts in six months, I’ll feel like the Blog Regularly Thing is a success. It was a rough week. Fig…
In pursuit of my Thing to blog every week for six months, I am writing a post today. (Technically two days late, but whatevs) I have to admit my heart isn’t in it. I’m still feeling very discouraged by the state of the world. And there have been some changes in my personal world lately…
First of all, thank you for reading this. I started off with a bang and I feel like I’ve been moving along with a whimper so I appreciate you sticking with me through the fits and starts. Good news – I have finished another Thing! We did Meatless Monday for Three Months, including this stew/chili…
I haven’t blogged in so long…I’m not sure where to start. I guess I’ll just catch you up on the Things I’ve been doing. I’ve made a few more Smitten Kitchen recipes — a slaw, alfredo shells and peas, and leek fritters with a sour cream lemon garlic sauce. All of them have been delicious…
