Planning & Preparations, Thoughts & Musings

Spring at last…

Each morning I look out my bedroom window at the flowers and am amazed at the new ones that have come out, seemingly overnight. I'd forgotten how lovely western North Carolina can be when spring finally appears. Pinks, purples, yellows, whites, and even a few reds - all bursting open as if to remind us… Continue reading Spring at last…

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

She’s here!

I am now the happy owner of a 1987 Georgie Boy LM. She's old and needs a lot of cleaning up, but also solid and in great condition. The great thing is that Anthony got his within a couple days of me finding mine. His blog is here and he's just getting started on it.… Continue reading She’s here!

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

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

Hesitations

Even though my progress through the house-cleaning has been slow lately, I can see more clear spaces and organization. I even find myself annoyed when I leave fabric or yarn where it shouldn't be (which will be a great thing once I'm in a tiny space). I've gotten a few bins here and there and… Continue reading Hesitations

Memory Lane and New Paths

Now that the issue with Brianna's school has been settled, it's time to focus again on my plans as well as work on a few projects I have going. One of those projects is a story of my childhood that I intend to share with my dad since he didn't know me while I was… Continue reading Memory Lane and New Paths

Cleaning out

Well, I did say that the posts would likely be scattered. I've been going through my drawers and cabinets trying to figure out what I'll really want to bring with me. Stacks of blankets? I might need those no matter where I spend my winters and they can be laid out flat under the mattress… Continue reading Cleaning out

Simple preparations

I gave away seven pots of plants yesterday. No, not plants of pot. I had seven flowerpots full of plants that now have a new home. I chose very carefully which ones I'll keep for myself and gave away the rest. A very cool young woman (J) came by and picked up the mini-orange tree,… Continue reading Simple preparations
