Just the two of us empty nesters..

“So this is what it’s gonna be like..” I thought as we checked out of the grocery store yesterday..

One onion

one tomato

one red pepper

one bag of lettuce

and one container of ice-cream..

that actually made it through the night in our freezer

without mysteriously ‘losing’

all of its

chocolate chunks.

    Yes it does. But it’s more fun getting used to than diapers.

It takes some time…..I remember breaking down in tears one day in the grocery store, looking at the lonely little package of two chicken breasts….It gets easier, I promise!

Welcome!

Thanks so much for popping by for a visit! My name is Cindy and in a nutshell- this is my story:

I was born and raised in (what was then) West Germany and moved to the US with my family when I was a teen. I met my husband shortly thereafter..we married after college and spent the next 35 years living all over the United States. We are now finally settled in sunny Florida in a little yellow house with a cozy front porch enjoying everything paradise has to offer.

Our kids and their better-halves live too far away for us to actively butt into their business so we decided to get a dog a few years ago and control her furry, little life instead..so it’s just the three of us Musketeers down here ‘livin’ the dream’ as they say.

Anyway, I hope this site is a comfortable corner in a crazy world; a place where you can quiet your soul, nourish your heart, maybe LOL and hopefully find a “thought nugget” that resonates with, and lifts, your spirit. My goal at this point in my life is to be a force for good in a world that unfortunately seems to be addicted to chaos and strife.

I posted Philippians 4:8 at the top of this site not just because it’s a lovely verse, but as a mission statement reminding me to strive to align my posts with the overriding principle that what spills forth onto those we meet is what we have inside.

So make yourself at home, meander around (maybe grab a recipe for dinner tonight?)..and don’t be shy! Share what’s on your mind or just say “hi” in the comment section found under each post..I’d love to hear from you!

💜, Cindy
