Today, I baked the most beautiful muffins. I used very ripe bananas that I had put in the top of the fridge, in the freezer, and I ground some oats and grouts to use. I ground my own flax seeds and I gently and carefully stirred the mixture. Today, I went for a walk, aContinue reading “Settling into an “aging” life”

Micro watching
My red coffee cone, black fine grind, yellow container with grounds, blue t-shirt, black leggings …. wet shower, cool breeze in the window, sun rising further into the south and setting the same, red kettle boiling the water, blue sky of welcome ….. the morning has arrived. I am leaning into this stage called ‘retirement’.Continue reading “Micro watching”
The Next Adventure
Shane (my son) said to me, “Mom you said you were NEVER going to do another solo hike, when you were in Ireland.” I said, “One learning as we age is NEVER say NEVER!” Funny how in the throes of adventure the lows can make you say things you really do not mean. Being inContinue reading “The Next Adventure”
Where is the month going?
Day 25 – It feels like I missed day 24 … missed it all together. I woke up and the day got away and, before I knew it, I was in bed at the end of it. I did produce a video yesterday. A video of my weekend in Niagara Falls Canada (of course, lol).Continue reading “Where is the month going?”
Are you fired up or down or in or out?
Day 21 – Today’s reading in Older, Wiser, Fiercer is one that I would love to put up for all to read, because there is so much in it that I relate, I’m finding it difficult to whittle it down to a quote or two! As I lay in bed this morning thinking about myContinue reading “Are you fired up or down or in or out?”
Two days in one
Day 14 – We have reached the fullness of the March 2025 equinox moon. Not only have we reached this regular monthly cycle, but we were gifted with an eclipse. A full eclipse where the moon took on a beautiful, shadowed hue. A rusty coloured silhouette in the sky through the night last night. DidContinue reading “Two days in one”
March 2025 third third living
Daily reflections in March – finding the light of aging …. Day 1 – I am declaring March 2025 the month I reclaim my heart, soul and spirit. Each day I will post a quote or words from an author I enjoy and learn from. The theme is based on Carol Orsborn and her bookContinue reading “March 2025 third third living”
Birthdays
I must admit, I needed to pull up a January 2018 calendar to check the dates. The dates I am checking on is my sobriety birthday. Is there joy in the fact I have lost track of the actual date? I love that! I love the fact that I must revisit a monthly calendar toContinue reading “Birthdays”
Creating your own shed show
The words seem to be pouring out of me lately, and my fingers are hungry to find the keys to the new laptop and splay these words on the page. As I am hungry to write, I am reading and listening/watching voraciously to books, podcasts and videos where I can learn from others what theyContinue reading “Creating your own shed show”
