I have been so dang busy. But, part of my new way of healthier for Kat living is to make sure I take some time every day and just do something fun, healthy, or just plain exist without motive other than

Yesterday, I got up, after being away from my husband for thirteen days, with a smile on my face and sense of urgency to get on the road. I already had all the things I needed to load in my jeep packed,

We had to run over the river and through the woods to the delightful burg of Libby, Montana yesterday to pick up a few things. Now, Libby isn't a foreign town to me at all, I first traveled there as a

Even though I have been noticeably absent, one ever-present thing in my world is a vast array of quality comestibles. As up to my elbows as I am in change and chaos, I am also beyond pleasantly blessed

Homestead chores don't care if you are running around!

Summer is approaching and already in full swing around here. I know this because the amount of stuff that I am doing seems to be increasing, and honestly I don't mind too much because it's distracting

Nine days, it's been nine days since I last blogged. I know there have been week long stretches that I have been missing, and when Rufus blew his engine in New Mexico many years ago, I was gone for a couple
