Seasons change four times a year. Some seasons are mild while others are extreme. Personally, I’m one for the in-between seasons – fall and spring – where it’s not too hot and not too cold. I’m not much of one for extremes. And I think I could say the same of life, I’m not too […]

Playing Catch Up
I don’t know about you, but I find myself playing catch up with projects. There are quieter seasons and busier seasons. And in those busy seasons it seems a bit of a trick to catch anything up without something else slipping behind. And I get that that’s my choice. It is directly connected to what […]
Hallmark Moments
So what do I mean by Hallmark Moments? They are the little pieces, happenings, and well, moments, that make up a Hallmark movie. Please tell me I am not the only one who enjoys a Hallmark Movie! The predictable plots, the humor, and in the end, the guy and girl get each other! Who could […]
Brighter Days Ahead
There are always brighter days ahead. Whether you are in a trying time or on top of the world, when we give God our best, there is always something to anticipate! A Thrill of Hope I love that phrase, “a thrill of hope, a weary world rejoices”. The world is so crazy right now. Terrible […]

Do you have plans for 2023? It will be here soon so it’s best to start thinking about it before it arrives! Typically by now I’ve bought a planner and am looking at my goals. Though I’ve had them in the back of my mind, I confess I’ve not given them the consideration I like […]
Customer Appreciation Party
My sister and I celebrated another year at our shop Twig and had a bit of boutique style party! We ran a “stuff the bag” Customer Appreciation sale, had refreshments and did giveaways! Four years in business is a big deal in a small town and we like to thank our customers for their support […]
Enthusiasm Makes the Difference
Enthusiasm Makes the Difference – isn’t that an inspiring book title?! Now that I’ve discovered Norman Vincent Peale I just knew I had to read it. I appreciate his take on the importance of living an enthusiastic life. His reminds us that one’s perspective or paradigm can be the difference between excelling and merely existing. […]
In The Long Run
It is always good to consider the long term results. As I was finishing a project last week I was considering this. Yes, it was a large project and there were other more-fun things that I could be doing, but in the long run I was glad to almost have a project complete. This goes […]
