Welcome!
Welcome, Friend, to my new home on the Internet! I am a writer and have been blogging (off and on) for many years now. Since I returned to the workforce this past summer, I have been contemplating my creative outlets. Those I utilized when I was an entrepreneur no...

Hearth & Home
It was a chilly and damp day here yesterday. I don't know about you, but days like that cause us to want to hole up and seek comfort here at home. Granted, I did go out to do a few errands, but by the time I got back? I was definitely ready to hibernate. How did DW...

New Find: HOWA
DW is my research "guru". I don't have as much spare time on my hands these days, so he researches all the questions he has about what we're (happily) getting ourselves into as well as any questions I have (or might have).Recently, he had what both consider to be a...

Our Mascot: Meet Dave!
Hello, Friend! Dave the Gnome, here. We've not met yet. I'm the Official Mascot (*straightens sunglasses with a sense of importance*) of the Mystic Maunderer. I just wanted to pop in to introduce myself AND to share that the excitement is building here. Dawna and DW...

Nomads: Seeking Words of Wisdom
DW and I are still at the beginning of our RVing journey, which means we're doing a lot of planning and prep work (ie dreaming). We're narrowing down our list of RV front-runners and making a list of places to visit (see map). Then, once it cools down, we'll actually...

The Lead Up
Until we actually get the Maunderer, the blog will focus on the lead-up to getting her: the processes we go through (ie downsizing) and the discoveries we make in preparation as well as tidbits about Myrtle Beach as a "travel destination". Travel info (places to...

Allowing for new dreams
This past week, as part of my interview process for the new job, one of the questions I was asked was "if you could have any job in the world, what would it be?" To be honest, at the time, I couldn't provide an adequate answer. As I thought on it more, though, the...
Making the Best of It
This morning, I popped into the Everyday Magic Check-In post from Friday to share my own favorite image. For me, the "magic" I experienced was not from the image itself, rather the story behind the image. (After all, isn't that where much of the magic in our lives...

Pandemic Musings: Dusting Off Hiccups In Time
Some interesting times in which we find ourselves. These times do need to be documented in some form or fashion for the generations to come.
