Welcome to Tuesday’s blog, AKA me totally forgetting that we had it today and just now, at 4:05pm, beginning to write it. The thing is, there’s a lot going on right now. Steve and I just found out yesterday that we are COVID positive, so that’s been kicking our butts, and we’ve essentially done nothingContinue reading “Cheers to the Chaos!”

Enjoying the Moments
Happy Tuesday, friends! Man, it does not feel like it should be May already, am I right? It feels like just yesterday Steve and I were leaving Virginia on our trek West to Mexico, but that was all the way back in January! How does time seem to move so fast?! Once you realize justContinue reading “Enjoying the Moments”
To-Do Lists, Do They Ever End?
Happy blog day, Mentally Sailing pals! This weekend, while at a bridal shower, I was told that I make “everything sound so fun” on the blog. This comment came right after I said how I had been scrubbing mold to clean up all of the nooks and crannies on the inside of the boat andContinue reading “To-Do Lists, Do They Ever End?”
Camping, Cousins, & Batland
Happy blog day, readers! It’s been a week of adventure, that’s for sure. Steve and I made a pact to go camping at least once a month after we had so much fun camping with friends in Arizona last month. So, Steve found a cool place (via Reddit of course) and kept part of itContinue reading “Camping, Cousins, & Batland”

Sailing Home
Continuing this Women’s History Month of quotes with this gem. Didn’t even know it until today, but man is it beautifully said. “She must find a boat and sail in it. No guarantee of shore. Only a conviction that what she wanted could exist, if she dared to find it.”― Jeanette Winterson It’s blog Tuesday,Continue reading “Sailing Home”
Eastward Bound
“She always had that about her, that look of otherness, of eyes that see things much too far, and of thoughts that wander off the edge of the earth.” -Joanne Harris This quote resides on my user page for WordPress. I honestly don’t remember where I first read it, nor do I remember when IContinue reading “Eastward Bound”
Here’s to Strong Women
“Here’s to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them.” When I started writing these blogs for Tuesday publishing I didn’t intend for it to include this day. We just wanted to publish one on the day that we left for our first trip on the boat. Now, onContinue reading “Here’s to Strong Women”
A Little Bit of Politics
Happy first day of Women’s History Month! This month is always very important to me. Being a woman in this world is never the equal, kind, loving, fun, exciting place we want it to be. Some things can be, but with all of the inequalities within sexes, we have to work extra hard to proveContinue reading “A Little Bit of Politics”
Happy 2/22/22s Day
Happy 2/22/22s day! This week has been lovely, with a few ups and downs thrown in there. Last week I told you all that we had signed a lease and that we were so excited to move in in March. Well, things didn’t end up working out. We were reading through our final thing toContinue reading “Happy 2/22/22s Day”
