Latest From Living Large: Our New Normal

Seeing our daughters, son-in-law, and grandbaby has become something that happens pretty often now. I’m doing my best to adjust. Don’t get me wrong—I love having them nearby and seeing them frequently. However, I am a creature of habit, and I have had a routine that I need to learn how to be more flexible.

What’s Been Happening This Past Week

Last weekend we were at Annie and Tommy’s for the weekend, and Emma joined us on Sunday. Then on Thursday I went back downtown and picked up Harry from his school and brought him home, and he spent Friday and Saturday with us. Tommy was working, and Annie flew to Dallas for a long weekend to visit her friends.

We got Annie’s tree up, but Tommy isn’t happy with a Christmas tree in their house in October. They compromised and put the tree in Harrison’s bedroom until it’s more appropriate for it to be in the living room. It’s gorgeous, and it’s going to look so good when she gets it decorated.

What I’m Up to Next Week

This next week you won’t be hearing from me. I have some collaboration commitments that need some loose ends wrapped up. I have a few more coming up that I need to get organized. I also want to get myself on track for the holiday season.

A peek into my life

Lynn’s Recollections & Reflections

I have a little series that started out as a journal of sorts for my kids to have about my life. It became something more.

It’s a place where I share a very personal look into my life and believe it or not have helped some people get out of unhealthy situations.

It’s a work of fiction as it relates to others as it is my recollections of events. I hope you enjoy!
