Last week, I took a significant chunk of money out of my savings account to buy my eleven-year-old daughter a new horse. For the last year and a half, this girl’s life has become completely saturated with horses. It started with a rental, followed shortly after by the purchase of our first horse, a 20-year-old… Continue reading I Bought My Daughter a Horse

I think I am struggling with depression … in fact, I’m quite sure that I have been struggling with depression for a very long time now … though it’s hard to put in words or “nail it down” on the page like this… Continue reading January 2023 Book Club Invite
2022-2023 School Year Day Planner
I recently had a request for another one of my school year day planners for the 2022-2023 school year. While I prepped a year-long 2022 day planner in late December 2021 (you can find that here and print accordingly), some people prefer a day planner that follows the school year. This planner begins with August… Continue reading 2022-2023 School Year Day Planner

I Want to Make a Difference
In a recent journaling exercise that I was working through, I was asked: “What do you want more than anything in the world?” At first, I was stumped … I couldn’t think of anything material that I wanted or needed. I don’t have lofty travel plans (though I WOULD really love to see my brother… Continue reading I Want to Make a Difference

It’s Hard to Pretend
Today, I came upon my youngest daughter sitting cross-legged on the living room couch, head down, hands folded in her lap, her princess shoes lined up carefully on the floor in front of the couch. Not trying to play into it all too much, I attempted to make light of the situation … “Hi Cambri!”… Continue reading It’s Hard to Pretend
