This morning as I looked around the house and was feeling a bit overwhelmed between boxes and packing, school holidays and trying to entertain the kids, and balancing it all with work, I had to stop before I allowed myself to spiral down the rabbit hole. But, it’s an...

Years ago, I remember one of my husband’s friends saying, “I can’t be friends with people unless they live within a certain radius.” While we appreciated that he knew this about himself, it was also baffling to us. When we first me, my husband was an Australian...
