25 Ways to Mend your Neighborhood or Community This week we are talking about mending our neighborhoods and I love the idea of after we have reached out to our family that we are starting to reach out to others. I think the biggest thing to remember is to start small....it doesn't need to overwhelm any of us. Just whatever you are doing this week, think of a small way it can be multiplied into something for someone else. A Bread Story My favorite bread recipe (it's linked below) ... View the Post
The Soul Mending Society Week 3: Mending Communities and Neighborhoods
Mending Communities and Neighborhoods: So todays post was pretty much written by that one quote from Mr. Rogers.

The Soul Mending Society Week 2: Mending Home and Family
Week 2 is here and we are focusing on the challenge of Mending Home and Family. Let's talk first about Home. This last weekend I declared it "give some love to our home" Saturday. We spent the morning patching holes in walls (we moved some kid's rooms around and had quite a few holes where things had been hung to repair) and then doing some paint touch ups on places that needed a refresh. We have done this many a Saturday morning during quarantine, going through the house room by room ... View the Post
