Just Like the Weather...Bi-polar

Is summer here or is it not here? Who can tell with this weather....one day it is 29 degrees and the next it is 11 and then 38 on Friday. hahahaha The weather is bi-polar.... Speaking of which, I have been to a psychiatrist several times over the last few months, and have been given some new diagnoses (if anyone follows along on my journey, I was told I had Major Depressive Disorder so we were treating that... but since it would initially get better but then decline, we figured something else was up....and down...and up again...and down again....) and...

The $174.43 Bottle of Superglue

I will start off by saying, we never really know how a situation is going to play out...until it does. Sometimes our choices make a great story though...and here is one.  The other day I was making lip balms, getting ready for the upcoming markets/events we are attending. I went to grab a jar of coconut oil, it slipped out of my hand, hit my thumb and fell to the floor. No damage to the oil or packaging but broke my thumb nail (quite far down so it was tearing my skin a little....) only about half way though, the...

And The Lucky Winner Is...

It’s me again. Hahaha I know I have been missing in action lately, but I have a good excuse. We have been picking fiddleheads…over 300 lbs of them in the last 3 weeks. So because I did not prepare any blogs in advance, you just got none. But now I am back, for a little while, then it will be summer where I usually take some breaks, so enjoy the next few, either way. Hahaha As I was sitting here, I honestly was not sure what I was going to write about…when my messenger dinged and lo and behold it...

My Love/Hate Relationship With Exercise

Journey….journeys….I feel like life should be one journey, but it is not. I feel like it is a series of them, sometimes all jumbled up together and sometimes several simultaneously happening. I am going to write about one of the journeys today. It is one people either embrace or they ignore totally…it is amazing to watch and see where people are on this journey and if any other journeys impact this one. I am talking about exercise. While some may not consider it a journey, I believe it is. I know for myself, anyways. I have had a love/hate relationship with...

Living a Movie

Living a Movie

A few weekends ago we went to Halifax to be vendors at an expo. But that is not really what this blog post is about. Hahaha We, just Ben and I, were going, and we did not want to spend a lot of money on accommodations. So, we found the cheapest motel Expedia had to offer…that still had reviews saying it was clean. I mean, I can only slum it so much. Hahaha We arrived shortly after 8 to check in…we drove up and I swear it looked like we were entering a movie…I do not recall ever staying in...
