How lucky to be able to be with him and with Christine as she starts her second job. <br /><br />I love your "mind-box", when I am feeling as you describe I either journal or bake! I hope that you did one. many. or all of the above. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your adventures.

I have a broken foot at the moment, and have spent the last month with it elevated on a pillow. It has been the perfect opportunity for me to start my instagram account (thank you for following). My husband and I have been fortunate enough to travel a bit, and I have taken some lovely photos that I wanted to share with then world. I also love being a home-maker, so I enjoy sharing photos from home also. I have followed your blog for a while now, and think I have finally figured out how to post a comment. Well done on bringing up 4 independent and wonderful children. The internet has managed to make the world a little smaller and bring us all a little closer to one another. John and I come from Sydney. We have lived in Brisbane since 2000. Your recent photos have made my homesick. I honestly think Sydney is the most beautiful city in the world.<br />Thank so much for sharing.<br /><br />Gabrielle ( gabriellew861)Gabriellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363692704254296166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-87355749071388005302016-10-29T21:04:08.663-04:002016-10-29T21:04:08.663-04:00Oh.

The very popular "Sherlock" series has Sherlock going to his Mind Palace, so I don't see any reason why you can't have a box! ;-)Kate at Wonderful Life Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01393342818341678583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-12410715633088057772016-10-29T13:12:31.902-04:002016-10-29T13:12:31.902-04:00I love the CHILL & MOTHERING and the MINDBOX a...I love the CHILL & MOTHERING and the MINDBOX and its glossary of things to explore.<br /><br />O, the blessings of children and their growing and excitement of places.<br /><br />You are blessed.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-76530825328110637682016-10-29T13:05:03.580-04:002016-10-29T13:05:03.580-04:00Hi Jeanne - hope someone is caring for Tahilla Far...Hi Jeanne - hope someone is caring for Tahilla Farm whilst you are down under!!!<br />Yes, you've really have lived in some great countries - and I too love Australia but must say one visit to Vietnam I certainly found stunning also. I want so much to return to both places if ever possible.<br /><br />Following our recent Kenya trip we've just enjoyed two grand weeks in northern California. In December we'll travel again - more on that later on the blog!<br /><br />Stay safe, enjoy being with family and friends - time goes all too quickly. When I want to 'tune out' I plan a place to visit that I've never seen. . . . . . . or go get a pedi, pull weeds, sit with something good to read - glass of wine within arm's length, or write (letters, e-mails or create a new blog post).<br />Hugs - MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-18041336553971777332016-10-29T09:55:05.671-04:002016-10-29T09:55:05.671-04:00So...what's so "wrong" with mindbox?...So...what's so "wrong" with mindbox?

And th...Thank you for inspiring smiles and laughter<br />And the tiny glimpse into living in different parts of the world. Mentally I have you settled in NH. Today, my brain background goes to Sydney, with I add, an ever present Mango Mansion atmosphere over it all. One minute I'm thinking woods and the sweet smell of a wood fire, and the next I'm hearing the surf, and thinking of "The Bondi Vets," right down the street! :)<br />Your bake brownies is being added to my list of things to do on a do something day. <br />Salty Pumpkin Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10116105220109225010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-36279566287912293642016-10-29T06:27:42.690-04:002016-10-29T06:27:42.690-04:00It sounds like you are having a purely heavenly ti...It sounds like you are having a purely heavenly time...mindbox or no mindbox!! I am going to remember that term.

With your hectic schedule is it any wonder you need to "mindbox"!! I love that term ( dementia references aside ) and with my children and grandchildren and a newly retired husband about all the time, I truly need any of the above to escape to regularly. At the moment it's my garden...an escape with benefits!! Exercise, creativity and a pretty vista to gaze upon with a g&t!! Hope the rest of your visit passes splendidly!! ❤️Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149911517800956755noreply@blogger.com
