My Garden, My Home, My Sanctuary
Thrift Store Finds: December has bee much more relaxed. November seemed a little hectic. Maybe because people were getting ready for Thanksgiving as well as Black Friday deals. Although I should hold off on that opinion since it is only the December 6th. I have been back to my favorite thrift store every Saturday since …
Back To Chloe Ting’s 2 Week Shred Challenge. It was last May when I tried Chloe Ting’s 2 Week Shred Challenge, and I hated and loved it at the same time. I loved the fact that it was free, and only a few minutes out of your day. Don’t get me wrong though. Those few …
October & November In The Garden 2022 was almost non existent. I usually put all my energy into the holidays, so the backyard suffers a bit. Actually, I’m sure the garden and all the critters in it are more than happy to not see my face all up in their business. The few times I …
Great Gift Ideas For Christmas 2022. Shopping for loved ones for Christmas is the biggest pain in the tush. Let’s be hionest here. Trying to think up gift idesas for people is one of the WORST things you have to do during the holiday season. I have tried asking people directly what they want, but …

Glow In The Dark Liquids For Halloween. I must be the last person to learn about this. Tell me if you have heard this one before. Did you know that you can get a fantastic glowing liquid just by using water and a highlighter? OH MAN! I was supposed to go on and on about …
August & September in the Garden 2022: What should have been some of my best months instead were a series of disappointments. Not really what you want to read about, I’m sure. People want to ready about successful gardens and how they can achieve that as well. Hmmph. In August and September I had a …
July in the Garden 2022: Summer is in full swing and the plants are taking over. As soon as the sun came out and the weather warmed the plants had exploded with growth and beautiful flowers. So much so that they were fighting for space and pushing each other out. It was great, but by …
June in the Garden 2022: Apparently I only thought about my Monarch butterflies this month and ignored my plants completely. Fortunately they grew anyways. I was looking back at all the pictures I took in June and just about 90% of them were of Monarch eggs, caterpillars and butterflies. I won’t get into Monarchs on …
