A full month of circles. I think I want to start something new for June, but still debating what it should be…
happiness project: blogs + misc (jun)
Thrive, Project 46, and the monthly projects in my Happiness Project … so many projects! In reality, they are all facets of the same project, guiding me to finish or give up old projects and move forward on the ones that are most important to me. May’s main theme was Volunteering. At the moment, I…

It’s been a lovely few days, but life has gotten in the way of my hikes at Arabia these past few months. Hoping things will settle down next fall, and I will be able to get back out to the mountain once again.

look up (again).
Looking up at Arabia. I can’t wait until fall comes around again!
rediscovering books.
Don’t get me wrong. Books have always been central to my life. After grad school, I could only read fluff. My head was filled, no room for anything else. While pregnant with Camille, I read everything I could get my hands on about childbirth and babies. Once Camille was born, my reading was all about…

I am usually not a fan of mini-golf, but Chloe and I had a great time golfing while on Jekyll!

letters about literature.

While the award is a statewide award, the ceremony was here in Downtown decatur at our library, and the prize was a gift…
