Lifestyle blog for homemaking and personal growth
I grew up in a family where we spent a lot of time at home. Aunts and cousins and uncles would visit even if it wasn’t a birthday or holiday. I have fond memories of family gatherings and thinking back now, I always knew that home was a safe place. Now that I have a…
I am going to point out something I think all of us know: we all need a day of rest. How many times do we complain on Monday morning that the weekend was just too busy? That we had no time to re-set and rest? That we are just so tired. As someone who has…
Homemaking is a busy job, with tasks that never really are completed. By that I mean, is the laundry ever really done? Meal preparation and cooking is on going on a daily basis and often requires a lot of planning and pantry management. You can clean and tidy a room one day only to have…
Family is important. They are the ones who are there in every season of life, for happy times and sad times, the people who care for you when you are ill or help you out with things like moving homes, child minding, even things like loans. But often, we don’t spend a lot of quality…
In the past, I’ve often emphasized the importance of having hobbies in your life. After all, we can’t always work. Hobbies are the play of adults in a lot of ways. But I do know that life is often busy, sometimes so busy we don’t know where the day went and can feel dis-regulated and…

It’s been a year since I last posted here on the blog, and while this is a hobby blog now, that is a long time. Some of you might know I was putting more time and energy into my crochet blog, Pretty In Crochet, and but that’s not the only reason I haven’t been present…
Over the past few years, I’ve really been watching a lot of Youtube and loving some of the channels I’ve found. I actually subscribe and watch the videos as they come out because I really like those channels and creators and want to keep up with the content they are putting out. There are plenty…
I’m back again! If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you’ll know that my husband and I decided to sell our condo and buy a house. An actual house with a yard, driveway and everything! We really were not in the market for this change, but we happened to find a house that was perfect,…
It has been a hot minute (or two) since I’ve really blogged and you haven’t seen a lot of content from me in many months. I have talked about how adjusting to mommy life has contributed to this, and chasing around a little one is a ton of work, and very time consuming. It’s also…
