Yesterday morning I took a break from writing work to spend some time with my oldest sister, Betsie, and her family. Betsie is probably the first person to inspire me to write, thanks to the amazing stories she would weave for us siblings during my early childhood years. I remember sitting on the edge of the … Continue reading Auntie Joys

Yesterday // A Special Song
Yesterday was a beautiful, sunshiny day that made me thrilled just to be alive. I love walking along our gravel road with hay fields all around me, the tall hay rippling in the breeze. We have so many wild flowers mixed in with fields and I can hardly keep myself from going a little wild … Continue reading Yesterday // A Special Song
Plotting and Swimming
Totally not the best picture of me... I actually just snapped it to send to my bro, but then decided to post it on here, because looky there! Corn on the cob! Corn on the cob! Having my braces off is a huge treat. =)I've been brainstorming for my When Life Hands You Lymes book for a while … Continue reading Plotting and Swimming
Florida Sunshine
Yesterday it was so bright and sunny and warm. It actually got up to 81 degrees and we got to go swimming in the outside pool. That was pretty fun! It's currently not quite that hot, only about 61, but considering my bro back home told me that it's negative 20... Wow, just wow! It was … Continue reading Florida Sunshine

I really like snow, so I'm not thrilled to be leaving it behind. I am looking forward to being able to walk again without the coldness burning my throat. … Continue reading Traveling Update 🙂
When Life Hands You Lymes #4
I am having a delightful time traveling in the car with three of my sisters. We're about four hours into our trip, listening to this song, eating hard boiled eggs (me, at least) and seeing this view (ok, and the picture won't send to my computer, so I guess you won't get to see the … Continue reading When Life Hands You Lymes #4

According to the polls I put up on my blog back at the end of 2013, it appears y'all would enjoy hearing more writing updates and thoughts of mine. Therefore, that's what you're going to get today. (Anyone feel like throwing a party and indulging in sugar-free jolly ranchers with me?)What I've done so far … Continue reading Writing Update 🙂
My Week
Right now I'm sitting in my rather cluttered office, coffee (with flavored creamer! Oh joy!) next to me and the sound of rain coming through my open window. And, I just dripped coffee on my white shirt, so to ensure that won't happen again, I did what every quick thinking Aidyl would do and put … Continue reading My Week
Family Fun
Sometimes it sorta weirds me out and amazes me that I have so. much. to. write every time I update this blog, but I do. Today I've had to really think and choose what to post about. Yesterday's epic-ness won out though, so instead of getting a recap of 2013, or a working plan for … Continue reading Family Fun
