Today the rain is pounding on the roof and creating quite a racket in here. Of course, with every different sound I feel the need to check for leaks in the roof, even though it's covered with the rubber roofing sealant. Other than that, I'm trying to remain relaxed through it all. The cats are… Continue reading Brakes and Breaks

Making my way…
My last week in Ohio was a mostly peaceful one. I discovered that the local transit system will actually come out to the campground to get you, take you to run your errands, then bring you back to your site. My errands in McConnelsville cost a total of $2.50. If you're ever in the AED… Continue reading Making my way…
The little things…
A couple years ago, I was mentioning how I knew that this wouldn't be all sunshine & sparkles. I was trying to be realistic about how not-easy it would be to live in a tiny space and deal with traveling every couple weeks. I knew that it wouldn't be a piece of cake, especially since… Continue reading The little things…
Almost Home
The last several weeks have been filled with a steady stream of physical labor that leaves my body aching and weary, but my heart glad and satisfied. I've posted many pictures so far in a Facebook Album called RV Renovations. If you have any trouble seeing them, please let me know. So far I have… Continue reading Almost Home
Closing in on summer
I sit here this morning with the windows wide open, my toes a little chilled, and hot coffee in my hand. Can it really be that we are entering the second week of June? I check out the upcoming forecast and I see that the temperatures are rising into the nineties in the next day… Continue reading Closing in on summer
Sadness and Sunshine
I'm going to say the first part swiftly and without elaboration. I think it will make it easier. Aurora died at the beginning of April. Her health had declined rapidly and, even though I knew it was coming, it hit me really, really hard. There. I did it. Yes, it's been over a month, but… Continue reading Sadness and Sunshine
Stabilization
Another long while before I'm able to come in here and share my thoughts with you all. There are so many changes since I last posted! I'm not even sure where to start, but let's see where the train of thought takes us, shall we? This morning I had the desire to listen to some… Continue reading Stabilization
A quiet morning
As the sky begins to lighten, I think about the way the last half of 2016 has gone for many of us. And I think about myself, too. There were days, weeks even, when I thought that I'd give up my dreams of heading out onto the highways and visiting with all the people I've… Continue reading A quiet morning
Determination
I've come onto this page several times to write this post, but each time, the words wouldn't come and I would sit here looking at the screen and wondering how to phrase the things that were in my heart without sounding as if I'm falling apart or giving up. From the outside, it was really… Continue reading Determination
Destination
Throughout the month I have been thinking about my chosen word for this year (Apparate) and how I can apply it to each day. This past week, I've chosen to focus solely on the Destination. In the simplest terms, I think about how the things I do each day would be handled in such a… Continue reading Destination
