Plug Into Life

I’m really trying to plug into this little community.

That means leaving the house, and making myself visible.

After moving here, my daughter announced, “Hey Mom. You can always go hang out with the bikers on the weekends!”

Now, it’s one of my favorite things to do. A restaurant called Rolling Thunder Roadhouse is less than a mile from my home, and I go there often to sit and read, or engage in conversation. The owner’s Roger and Donna have pretty much adopted me.

Roger is a French Chef, and his wife Donna has done a little bit of everything. We had an instant connection, plus, they make the best cold brew coffee!

Cold brew and Chocolate Biscotti. On my way!

When my daughter and I moved here in January, I was pondering what should come with me. Do I really want to continue doing everything this year, that I had been doing last year? Was it a fruitful path?

I had a job offer last week. It would still be working from home, but the company would have their calls forwarded for me to answer the calls. The owner knows I have phone skills, and will pay good money for them. A friend of mine busted out laughing when I told her my initial response.

I don’t know. I think I want to harvest seeds from the Hydrangea flower, and grow them to sell to my neighbors.

The company didn’t really have a response to that. 🙂

Do I want to continue Blogging? That has been the big question this year. I’ve posted more this week, than I posted the entire month of April. January through April, I posted one a week, and that used to be daily, so there’s progress.

Maybe I will go see Roger and Donna this morning, and take a book I’ve been reading with me. It’s a gorgeous day outside, and I just want to be out there, instead of in here.

It’s time to unplug from the computer, and plug into life.

  1. It’s funny you should mention this. I’ve been moving toward keeping it real too. I’m going to be out and about this summer playing soccer and golf as well as doing some other things to keep myself from being tucked away.

    I will continue blogging, as inspiration hits me. I want it to be a joy, not just another duty.

    Hope you have a wonderful summer!

      1. I think that’s the key — post when you have something you want to share. I have decided that I’m not going to force myself to blog on a schedule. Sometimes I have things I want to say. Sometimes I don’t. And that’s just fine. 🙂

      2. Thank you for saying this. A lot of people teach the success of your Blog is a schedule, and that doesn’t work for me. How do you schedule something that comes from the heart? I’m with ya darlin’. ❤
