It’s a new year and it’s time for another UBC again, time for the January 2026 Ultimate Blog Challenge! I’m back and hoping to complete the month, we shall see. Some days I have to push through but I give it my best. This is the 41st UBC I have participated in and I’m looking forward to renewing old blog friendships and welcoming new members! For those who are new, the UBC is four times a year, January, April, July, and October where the challenge is to write a blog
Today is three for one day! First it’s the final day of the October Ultimate Blog Challenge, it’s Friday Story Time by Lia, AND it’s Halloween! Final Day of October UBC How did we all do? I held my breath a few days but I managed to post a blog each day for the month. This is my 40th consecutive Ultimate Blog Challenge I have participated in and completed! Whether you wrote 31 blogs or just a few, CONGRATULATIONS to everyone! I wrote this poem years back for the end
I have been decluttering, reorganizing, moving things around and tossing them since April. I was so happy when I got the garage all cleaned out and organized. But there is one thing I have kept under wraps since August! My final reorganization project is ready to be revealed! I had to wait because I wanted to surprise Chris and Bryon, you don’t know how hard it was to not tell anyone about this project! Back when Alex was about 4 years old, she wanted a pink room, bubble gum pink!
When my daughter came to visit, she brought her two special needs senior dogs and one spunky 2 year old Calico kitty. Snowball has adjusted to them very well and even though they only see each other every 4 to 5 months, they all get along, well except the spunky kitty. She has a mind of her own. LOL So today’s Wordless Wednesday Goes to the Dogs and a kitty. These are just candid shots, nothing staged or planned since it’s hard to get them all to be still at
Today is National Chocolate Day and it’s also a bit chilly outside. So I decided to share my recipe for a delicious cup of hot chocolate chai tea to celebrate National Chocolate Day.

Add all
