High Summer ~ The Return of Moxie
July 30, 2018
My confidence has returned. I don't feel broken anymore. And at least a majority of the time I feel I have the tools to handle what comes my way. This is a vast improvement from four years ago and from the crippling self-doubt I've experienced with bouts of anxiety since.
November for November's Sake
November 21, 2017
In November you face the inescapable truth that this year's growing season is over; September teases, October dazzles, but November tells it like it is. And I appreciate the honesty. Something is coming to an end, and there is comfort to be found in acceptance (and warm sweaters).
Spring Fever
April 14, 2017
The mountains are an insistent call in our life, and spring fever is real. Satisfying the itch for outdoors and adventure while raising our teens in a supportive community, this is the balancing act of our lives.

The New Year as a time to start fresh, get life in order, whatever else you hoped to achieve, is an arbitrary date.

September 27, 2016
The turning of the season is an important marker for me. During the threshold from one time of year to another I like to think about the coming months and plan accordingly.
The late summer season
September 7, 2016
All the news from late summer; homeschooling, adventures, family, gardening, and personal projects.
A change in energy
April 15, 2016
I undeniably experience shifts in energy with the seasons and in certain activities and ways of doing things. Noticing and naming this reality has been really important because it gives me greater self-awareness and helps me make better life decisions from this awareness.
