Early mornings are quite pretty on the mountain.

This week in our Arabian Adventures: Friday 12/8: The weather report called for snow, so I prepped the dog and me to go out to the Arabia lot to see. When we got there, it was mostly sleeting, not snowing, and not sticking. We walked over to the lake, then went off-path up and around

Finally! Snow! A snow day is a time to get cozy. Curl up on the couch with a blanket. Work, but work in the serene peace that accompanies a snowy day outside. I could use a whole week of snow days!

This week in our Arabian Adventures: Saturday 12/2: A sunny Saturday. Perfect day to go out to the lot and paint the table. I’m not sure how such a garish color was chosen, but hopefully it will fade after some time. I played with Phelix while Rob and Chloe did the painting, then we walked

It’s rare that I can get to the mountain in August. So on days that are cool enough, I make the time to get there!
happiness project: health/self-care
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. November’s main theme was Files/Finances. Becuase I depend on

This week in our Arabian Adventures: Monday 11/27: Since we were at the cabin most of last week, Phelix and I only made it out to Arabia once this past week. On Monday, we took a friend out to the lot. As we approached the driveway, there was a group of people walking along Rockland.

I don’t often get the chance to take things slowly. There is a crisis in the making at all times, so I generally try to live five steps ahead. Every once in a while, I remind myself to “Go slow, live in the moment.” But then the panic sets in again, and I forget. Today

Arabia Mountain. Along with Pine Lake (and possibly Cape Cod), this place is one of my heart’s homes. Most people don’t get it. A rocky outcrop in the city. Noise pollution (highway, police firing range, ATL landing route). Never too far from populated areas. But Phelix and I have found our special places here. Special

resolving my anxiety over gift giving.
Gift giving. It should be fun, right? We have the means to give gifts. I love to give, whether it be time or otherwise. But Christmas and birthdays. The gift acquisition process is an anxiety-ridden, stressful, axe over my head experience for me. My stress levels soar. I really hate buying things. For me and
