Wild and Weird Things on the Equator

On past vacations, we’ve traveled south to find the sun, but we never realized so many interesting things happen ON THE EQUATOR. I don’t think I have to explain the equator is the ‘belt’ of the globe, the middle of the earth, where the sun rises and sets at the same time ALL YEAR ROUND! I thought I’d share a few ‘weird and wonderful things’ about life on the equator. Each experience in life, each journey, and each conversation can…

Settling into Spindle City!

‘Spindle City’ is the nick-name I gave to my new cottage-home. Yep, a solid, 1982 two-story home with tons of room for my stuff -and spindles on every floor! There are oak spindles everywhere: the porch, two decks, a dock, a two-story staircase, a cat-walk overhead and all around a sunken living room! What were we thinking? We were hunting for the ‘right place’ for almost 2 years; what we found was that newer homes had smaller properties. Years ago…

Double Trouble?

Marketing and retail competition is cluttering up our homes and lives! LOL! Really! Q: Can we resist an ‘extra’ bag of nachos? – Just in case the kids bring their friends over. Q: Can we resist a giant case – cans of tuna fish? What about salsa? And, other foods? Q: Where do you…

After the Move…

  The morning after a move is a bit overwhelming!  A few comments about our move this summer: Change. Life is continually changing. Taking control of one’s life to move across the country, a new job and new neighbors takes courage and confidence. These changes can be overwhelming for many, so I’ve heard from many of you. If you jump too early, due to frustration and emotional toil, you will bring all your troubles/burdens along with you. One piece of…

Loving Your Home: Letting Go

  It used to be ‘normal’ to be born, live and die all in the same house; or at least, the same city. Society these days makes it possible, and probable, for people & families to move more frequently. This could be related to a fluctuating job market, unstable politics or perhaps a marriage commitment; ‘for better or worse’. So many people have shared with me their angst, about relocating this year! There seems to be a mass movement! We…

Ask Kathryn: REAL CASES – Balance in the Master Bedroom

  THE CALL Chris initially called me to her home to assess the flow in her home. Her 3 grown children all moved back to the family home for the summer, and OMG, the energy was a bit different with 5 adults in the house.
