Slice of Life Day 31: Maid of Honor Speech
My sister has been engaged for just over a year now and with her wedding coming up in mid-June, I’m happy to report that my Maid of Honor speech is finally coming together. I’m not huge on public speaking, although I’ve got a lot better about it when I realize…

Slice of Life Day 30: New Month, New Workout Plan
I did really great working out with a 30-day yoga journey in January. Then I fell off the bandwagon and got really lazy. It was cold and dark outside and rather than getting up a bit early, I chose to sleep instead of working out. Now that the weather is…

Slice of Life Day 29: Mini-Vacation
Having taken off Friday and today, I’ll be honest, a mini-vacation was exactly what I needed! I was able to get some things done around the house, work on some blogging projects, and even got a few minutes to relax. It’s not to say that I still had to send…

Slice of Life Day 24: Dogs In Gardens
I’ve mentioned before that we fenced in our corner lot to give our dog, Aria more room to run around. She’s an eight (?) year old rescue pit mix with lots of energy. Enough that people ask us if she’s still a puppy. Nope, she’s just crazy. So, she’s loving…

Slice of Life Day 23: Beyond the Books
I love to read! As a librarian it works out really well – I get to be surrounded by books all day long (even if I don’t read as many as I’d like)! I’ve been a reader ever since I can remember, I loved going to the local library growing…

Slice of Life Day 22: First Cookout of the Season
I had planned to make ham and potato soup for dinner last night. Those perfectly cooked potatoes, salty bites of ham, and lots of cheese – it’s heavenly. But, it was also gorgeous outside , a peak of warmer weather, blue skies, and time spent outdoors. So I flipped my…
