Happy New Year!
In my latest YouTube video, I took some time to look over my journals from the last year. 2021 without a doubt, has been my most productive journaling year to date.

Chickadees — Free Vintage Friday
Image Source I call my husband St. Francis of Assisi because animals just kind of flock to him. Cats and dogs follow him home; squirrels befriend him; it's just in him.
