I began last month’s “Currently” edition with a big “Hooray!”….and a hooray kind of month it was!  Lots of celebrations, time with friends and time with family, plenty of food, and even an overnight getaway (and more food!)  I also do not want to forget it was the month of…

Hooray for April.  We just enjoyed Easter – which was lovely this year!  There are several birthdays, for family and friends, to anticipate….and even my own:)  We have even discussed the idea of a weekend away for my birthday.  I don’t know if it will actually happen, but isn’t it…

Ah!!  Welcome, March!  I am always thrilled to welcome March.  To turn the calendar page and say good-bye to February…and this year was no exception.  And to do so on a Monday (new day, new week, new month – so exciting!) makes it just that much more wonderful!  There is…

Happy February…and happy 2021!! It seems late to say that but I missed the chance last month because of my blogging break.  I took the entire month off.  It was needed and helpful, but I am excited to be writing again and look forward to reconnecting with those who stop…

Time for November’s “Currently” post…and I am anxious, and curious, to see what direction all the posts will take this month.  Without a doubt, there is much “currently” happening – no matter where you live.  Here in the US, we are, of course, one day post-election.  Many are facing a…

Already a week into October!  Autumn, for sure.  Helloooo sweater weather.  Boy, do I love you:)  I have not yet worn tights…but, soon.  Very soon.  I love my tights as much as I do sweaters.  And flannel loungewear.  And cute sweatshirts.  You get the idea.  Clothes are just so comfy…

Hello September!  Hello fall (do you call it fall or autumn??)  And, of course, hello pumpkin spice season.  I have to make a confession.  I want to love pumpkin spice.  I fall for all the gorgeous packaging and advertising – whether it is for hand soap, cozy drinks, donuts, cookies,…

And, just like that, it is August.  Someone on Instagram recently said, “August is summer’s Sunday.”  Ahh, I love that!  The humidity has taken its toll and everyone (and everything) seems to be a bit drained…if not a bit parched.  The pace is slower – and that is okay.  And…

Hello July – one of my favorites!  I love the Fourth!  I like my porch looking festive and patriotic:)  That is not my street in the photo above, but we do have someone in our neighborhood who, every year, does something similar.  He places a flag in front of every…

Welcome June! I must admit, I was more than a little excited to turn the calendar page for June.  May was not my best month.  It was long…and draining.  In all ways.  A new month – which began on Monday (my favorite) and new week…bonus! – was a breath of…

Well, hello May!  You came in with very little fanfare…especially as the days and weeks leading up to the turn of the calendar had all melded into one.  However, it is a new month.  Full of potential, possibility, and hope for, at least, a bit of return to life “as…

March is in the books but, truthfully, I think we are far from putting March behind us.  So much of all that described this past month – the emotions, the challenges, the adjustments, the feelings and situations we have experienced during the last fifteen days (or so) – will not…
