Monthly Medley: April 2021
Is it just me or did this month fly by? It went by lightning fast. I wanted to take a moment before I get into happenings and food for thought to thank anyone who reads this and reads my blogs. Sometimes I check and see where my blog gets accessed from and it's crazy to …
In Honor of Earth Day
"We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children."Chief Seattle Hello and welcome to a blog post dedicated to our planet!

Monthly Medley: March 2021
Another month with only a Monthly Medley coming out. If I'm being honest, I haven't had too many ideas of things to write about. I'm hoping that will shift soon and I'll have some more posts coming out in April. For now, let's get into March. Happenings This month marked the official start of spring …
Monthly Medley: February 2021
Hello! Welcome to the last day of February.

The Truth About Goals
I was going to include some goal talk in my Monthly Medley, but decided I wanted to dedicate a whole post to it instead. We're past the halfway point of January and it's unfortunately highly likely that New Year's resolutions are beginning to be broken or forgotten. That's okay. A goal's beginning doesn't have to …
Monthly Medley: December 2020
Welcome to another Monthly Medley! I certainly didn't plan to only put out one blog post between the last Monthly Medley and this one, but such is life. December tends to be a little more hectic than the other months, so I'm going to give myself some grace. Happenings This month, it was the two …
Things I Get Excited About These Days: Compost
Once upon a time, I dreamed of starting a worm farm to be called Early Bird Farms. In my preparation for this new venture, I began collecting food scraps that could one day be given to the worms to turn into compost. But alas, it is but a dream... However, in the process, I stumbled …
