Feelings bounce up and down. When I see hubby again, I’ll be happy. Then he’ll leave for AZ a few days later, and I’ll be sad again. It goes up, it goes down. The only thing that helps is just to focus on my breathing.

How I did it: I bought a mix from the store and added some butter and water from the package instructions, and stuck it all in the bread machine. I've made it from scratch many years ago, but needed the boost from a mix to start baking it again. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went through our cupboard and found items that were still good but I wasn't going to use for a variety of reasons. I put them in paper sacks with handles so they were easy to carry and set them aside to donate. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I left the safe uncomfortable life and went for the dream. It didn't turn/hasn't turned out the way I hoped or thought it would, but it's been a complete adventure.
