Hey hey hey! I started the Weekly Ramble way back in 2010. It’s had many iterations over the last decade and a half, but it’s currently on the blog every Friday.
I’m a Christian, wife, mother, homemaker, (retired) homeschooler, open nester, and writer. Here’s what’s been on my mind:
Hello and welcome to 2025! Let’s chat fresh starts, re-solutions, and eating frogs. I’m currently in a Starbucks in my hometown enjoying my favorite January beverage. Prepare for a stream of conscious type of ramble. Now that Starbucks is such a rarity for me, I’ve realized that the Pistachio line of drinks is my ultimate…
Well, hello! We’ve had a few busy weeks, both on the home front and in the business. I’ve been developing new products that I’m really excited about. If you haven’t already, be sure to check out the Holiday Blitz. I’ve organized all the meal planning and recipe inspo you need for the month, from make-ahead…
Hello, Hi, How are you? Are you ready for the time change? Don’t forget to turn the clock back tonight when you go to sleep. I didn’t get as many sunrises or as much light exposure as I would have liked this week. Here’s hoping the time change doesn’t kick my tail! Thankfully, the early…
Hello, Hi, How are you? I’m doing okay! I’m on a 93-day step streak that feels exciting. Granted, I did lower my target to 7500 which is just as good as 10k according to several different studies, but I’m still moving every day. I will probably up the goal to 10,000 steps once I get…
Whew! What the heck happened?! It’s been a month since I last penned a weekly ramble? It’s not for lack of desire, but life has been just incredibly busy. What have I been doing? As you know, I have a home business that has enabled us to pay off debt, save money, and keep the…
Whew. That week was full! Let’s chat involuntary pantry challenges, guitar-playing husbands, new refrigerators, and more. So, what to tell you, what to tell you? Our heat wave broke earlier in the week, and it’s been lovely here. Most Easterners/Northerners would say that we don’t get true “sweater weather” here, but it was SO NICE…
Here’s where I ramble about the important and the mundane of every day life. This week let’s chat heat waves, grounding, fast food, and what’s eating my basil. Hello, Hi, How are you? We are sweating to the oldies around here…. not because of any particular exercise routine, just that it’s hot and I like…
This week’s ramble will be short and sweet. I’m going on two weeks of afternoon headaches and I still haven’t done my Rest Day Prep. It’s hot. I’m tired. I wish I were more entertaining. But, this is real life, is it not? Here are the highlights of my week: My baby is 16. I’m…
Let’s chat about Pumpkin Spice, tea parties, cheap dates, and back to school in this week’s Weekly Ramble. I love fall and winter, but I’m not quite ready to say goodbye to summer. Apparently, the grocery store has different ideas. I saw this display a couple weeks ago. Pumpkin Spice is still going strong after…
Whew. That week flew by – it wasn’t the most fun, to be honest. I think I’ve been riding on the euphoria of summer and getting resettled into another year in this house. Now, this week we’ve not only got the roller coaster emotions of going back to school but also a renewed need to…
