Long Time

It has been way to long since my last blog post.  There might be several reasons for that.  I might be lazy.  I might have been somewhat busy.  And last but not least I have nothing to blog about.  I think the last reason is the best.  I have been watching all the blogs I watch typically.  Since my last post, I have had an anniversary with my wonderful husband.

How Cold is it Where You Are?

Another Weekend

We are trying to get in as many trips up into the mountains before winter makes that scary.  We had to make a trip to the DMV on Saturday to get the husband's license changed to our new address so we did not have a full day.  But we don;t need a full day when we live so close to so many places to go see and be home by dark.  LOVE IT!

Much Needed Weekend

This weekend was much needed.  I have been completely out of sorts and with no motivation, boredom has set in.  Don't get me wrong, there is plenty to do, but lack of umph to do things is where I have been.  It all has to do with being unsettled.  I had lived in that home with all it's faults for 15 years, and I knew where everything was and and it was my home.  This one is beautiful and not yet home.  So, here I am trying to be at home in a city I don't know and I feel like a foreigner, but as time goes on I will feel more like I'm at home.

Back to this weekend,  the husband was wise enough to realize I needed a break, so we decided to drive to Westcliffe for the day.  It is only an hour and half away and a beautiful drive.  But the view there is to die for.  I LOVE this place!!!  I would love to live there, but it is away from the family and they don't want us to move.

I Need Some Motivation

The move is done, and now life is settling back to a semi-routine.  The only thing lacking is motivation on my part to keep me from going crazy with nothing to do.  I read other blogs and envy all the busyness!  Never thought I would ever say that.  But here I am.  I love to cook, not afraid of really hard recipes.  The only problem with cooking is what to do with it when it is done.  The husband and I are trying to not eat more than we need, and at our age our daily caloric intake should be dropping.  That does not leave room for cooking much.  I could make quilts or some sort of cute thing like that but I just moved and I have way too many blankets that my mother made and I made over the years.  I hate to make something and then have too much and no more storage to put it in.  I hurt my wrist finishing that last piece of furniture and am still struggling with it.  So that cuts out getting into my upholstery.  Besides, I just gave away one of the chairs I redid last year.  I have NO room for more projects.  I thought about making gifts for Christmas, like trying my hand at making bath products. I may do that, but I really just want something to sink my time into that will be satisfying, not making gifts for Christmas.  I am sure I'll come up with something I can do that will be a good hobby.  I love my upholstery but it is so very physical and what in the world does one do with all the pieces of furniture that I do when it is done?

Keeping Up

I have had a lot of trouble keeping up with all in my life much less this blog.  Because I moved, I guess blogspot thought my blog got hacked because I was coming from a different IP address.  That's the reason for the last post about losing my blog.  I could not find it and had no access to it.  I finally did just the right thing and there it was.

Have I lost my blog

I may have lost my blog.  I am testing this to see if I can recover it.

Found it!!!

Not sure what happened but I have recovered all my hard work.  I do love my blog!
