Easily distracted by shiny things
While the Hermit Tarot card does ring true when it comes to me, in this instance I mean the behaviour/archetype I slip into when my husband is away. And yes, he is away once again. This time for quite a bit longer than the other times. We’ll be fine, we’re just a little out of …

And guess where we are now? Yup, back in New Mexico. More big decisions being made and we’re trying to think big picture, rather than short-term living. We loved Oregon – LOVED it – and while the rain got a bit much for the husband, I actually enjoyed it. Dogs loved the cooler weather; no snakes …
