Hiking Equipment

Posted in Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #033 The right equipment makes hiking so much easier.  Of course, being in shape also helps when you’re out hiking.  **grin**  For my birthday, D gave me these new hiking boots (Merrell Moab Mid GORE-TEX® XCR®).  For Christmas, D and Munchkin gave me these Leki hiking poles.  I’ve never used hiking poles, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed using them last week while we were hiking.  The other gear that is essential here is a good water hydration system.  I have a nice Camelbak daypack that D purchased for me a few years…

3 in 30: January Week 4 Check-in

Posted in Christian Life, Fitness, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #028 This week’s check-in will be brief as I’m currently fighting with our virtually non-existent internet connection.  I first want to thank everyone who stopped by and commented on last week’s post.  I am sorry that I did not make it around to comment on your posts due to having company and being out of town.  Once I arrive back home this week, I’ll start making some rounds.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Sewing Room Organization and a Donut?

Posted in Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #020 When I saw the Mommytography Shape Challenge for January, I decided that I didn’t want to search for something that fit the challenge.  Instead, I wanted to allow something to jump out at me, so I set aside the challenge and carried on with life.  It was always in the back of my mind.  I started to think that I wouldn’t have anything to show this month… Enter in the cleaning of my sewing room – also known as the guest room.  You see, we have company coming on Friday.  We’ll be spending the week with…
