Hodgepodge – March 25

Posted on March 25, 2026 by Linda

Joining in with Joyce and the Hodgepodge crew today to talk about something wonderful—spring! 1. It’s officially spring in the northern hemisphere. Does it feel like spring in your part of the world? If you’re in the southern hemisphere it’s officially autumn where you live. Does the weather say autumn? Which do you prefer-spring or…

Posted on March 13, 2026 by Linda

Another week closer to spring. I’m itching for it, how about you? Joining in with Susanne and the Friday’s Fave Five crew again this week with a fistful of favourites from this week.

Delighted to join in on another Wednesday Hodgepodge with Joyce at From This Side of the Pond and others with a March-centric pre-spring post. 1.  As the saying goes, ‘March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.’ Did your March come in roaring or like some other animal? Every month carries with it…

Welcome March

Posted on March 2, 2026March 2, 2026 by Linda

It was -16C when I got up yesterday morning—the first one in March. This morning, it’s-1C. I’m not sure if that qualifies as either a lion or lamb, but what it is to me is an exhale. We made it. The worst of winter is behind us. We’ve come through the dark months and there…

Stumblin’ In

Posted on February 23, 2026 by Linda

We’re almost two months into this year that seemed shiny with possibility just a few weeks ago. Anyone else feel like the shine tarnished almost as soon as 2026 was out of the gate? Eight weeks ago, we were setting intentions, loose as we may have held them at the time, and basking in the…

Hi, I’m Linda Hoye. Welcome! I live in Saskatchewan, Canada with my husband and our Yorkie, Molly. Retired from my corporate career, I appreciate having time and opportunity to fill my days with things that nourish my soul and spirit like writing. watercolour painting, reading, gardening, and blogging about the simple joys of every day. I’ve been blogging since 2008, starting fresh here in 2022 when we moved home to Saskatchewan. May this space be a sanctuary in a very noisy world. 😊

Every life holds stories worth preserving: ordinary moments, unexpected turns, people who shaped you, and lessons only time can teach. Whether you want to leave a legacy for your children and grandchildren, or just understand your own path more deeply, writing about your life is a journey worth taking. I’ve created a guide with prompts to help you capture those memories. It’s my gift to you, so you can leave a gift for them.
