I Need To Catch Up…
Todd and I have hiked much and posted little. However this is the week I try to catch up.🤣 Geez, I cannot remember the last time I posted about one of our adventures… so I will start with the latest and work my way back. On the first Sunday in November we traveled to Domodossola…

Bridges…
As I began my slow journey down the Aare this afternoon aboard the boat that leaves at 1210 from Solothurn, I contemplated what I wanted to focus on for the day. I often do this… focus on something to take my mind off the fact that I am surrounded by people who speak a different…

Changing Plans Midstream Without Telling Others of the Change…
I am not flexible when it comes to change. Although I know life is not perfect and I need to accept changes, it does not come easy for me. I have learned to accept that public transportation is not perfect… I have come to accept that plans change because of emergencies… but when someone does…

Sometimes life is not perfect. The fairy tales we read are not an accurate picture of how life goes for most people. It certainly is not for me.

Hanging out at odd places…
I am definitely a „hanger oner.“ I hang onto to everything… old cards given to me, photos, clothes that are either worn out or do not fit… and people who I know are not good for my mental health. I cannot let go. And I do not know why. Trust me… it is not because…

#SwissSundayHike
Todd and I keep a post on social media where we talk about our hikes, show some photos, and try to offer our friends and family members back home a little taste of our adventures. I hope it is not taken by others as a brag when we do this. It started out as just…

What happened?
It is amazing how I let time slip away and I seem to pull away from the few things that I know will keep me grounded and somewhat calm through the tough days. The few things I know which help me are listening to music (any music)… this includes humming/singing along, swaying, and even dancing…
