Sharing these meanderings
with the folks @
The wandering thoughts of a child of God, a wife, a mom to two homeschool graduates, one of which is a missionary wife bound for a foreign field, and a Grandma to the sweetest little girl! I'm a friend, a homemaker, a gardener, a woodwife of sorts, an aspiring herbalist, an artisan, crafter, and vintage gathering repurposer, the occasional writer of a fairytale or poem, lover of happy endings, somewhat of a hopeless romantic. I'm also interested in traditional, sustainable, homesteading skills.

I like your thought process here. You covered alot in a post! But it gives me info to know about people I meet here. Thanks for sharing. You are a great writer!
This is a brilliant piece. Some of it I can certainly relate to and some not so much, but one thing is for sure--Not being able to sleep certainly can put one's mind on the fast track. That happens to me a lot!
I think what I loved most about this post was that it just felt real. And sometimes I can't sleep either...
Such a thoughtful ‘E’ post – so apt!
