Honey Bee Hollow

Currently crushing on Bruce Springsteen. Oh, how I wish I had been old enough to see him live in the late ’80s, early ’90s! Dancing in the Dark is on repeat as I eat chocolate here at my desk. The sun is starting to go down, and I’m having a quiet moment of happiness. Today was a good day, and my hubby and I have realized that we have a big project about to commence. It’s good. But it’s big. And will take A LOT of work.

Bring it on.

With winter quickly approaching, I can’t help but think about the beauty of the season. We’ve had snow already, very cold temp for this part of the world, at just under 10 degrees F, and lots of drizzle. I don’t usually mind the winter months, but this year, I feel a desire to put away the Christmas music and turn on some reggae, light some coconut scented candles, and crank up the furnace so I feel like I’m somewhere tropical. Usually I don’t get to this stage until February.

We’ve been in the Christmas spirit for weeks now, and although I love everything about it, my soul is restless and I feel a desire for great change stirring within me. I don’t know what that means yet, but I hope only good comes from this wave of restlessness.

As Labor Day Weekend provides warm, sunny days, I can’t help but notice that the trees are looking a little parched and are losing some of their leaves. Sigh. I Love Summer! I don’t want it to end. The green is so much more pretty with 80 degree days and clear blue skies above. I say that now, but the truth is that I love each season, and find happiness under my feet as I crunch through freshly mowed grass, fallen leaves, or snow. Tee shirts and frosty glasses of lemonade, sweatshirts and mugs of hot apple cider or a winter coat with a toasty warm scarf…the seasons always offer their own pleasures, but living in the now of summer, I’m sad to see it’s end is near. It’s been hard to not notice that the skies are dark before 8 pm now. We’re on our way; I just hope we can squeeze out a few more summery days before the our world turns cool. Soak it up. I plan to spend some time outside with a book this weekend before we officially start school {homeschool} next week. Be lazy.

Welcome to my blog!  Our lives are full of adventures, and I hope you’ll follow along as I share them.

Stay tuned!
