It's Almost Market Time!!

With the springtime comes one of the best things ever for me! The local Horton St. Market will soon be up and running again with so many wonderful things. It is set to open on May 9th, which is Mother's Day weekend btw, and will run until Oct. 31st. But lets not even think about October! Let's think about all the great local product we will have available to us so very soon. The spring planting season will bring lots of different plants to market and be will be able to get our gardens started whether it be flowers or vegetables or both! And on and on it will go all summer with an array of fruits, vegetables and so much more.

Check out the Horton St. Market's own blog at http://www.hortonfarmersmarket.blogspot.com/

as written by Tricia Herbert, Market Manager. The blog will keep you updated on all the goings' on for the Market during the summer months.

As you may well can tell......I can't wait!! I love to go and take my basket and come home with it filled to the brim with wonderful produce!

See you there soon!

The Balance of It All.....

Oh goodness, I have not been keeping up with my blog! Things have been busy and time flies! But here I am again ready to tell you about all that is going on. I am excited that Oracles Book Shop is officially over the 6 month mark and it feels great! Not a huge milestone, but certainly a milestone. I am still learning so much and getting lots of things better organized. Some things I found worked better in different ways and so I made changes. And that's great! Change is good, right?

The stressors and changes in my life have also caused me to look at how I take care of myself. That is another learning curve. I thought I was doing a pretty good job and then things were starting to crumble. I listened more intimately to my body and soul and stopped trying to "do it all" at any cost. The 'cost' I came to understand would be too great. So now, a more concerted effort is in place. It's not perfect yet, but it's coming.

So as it stands, Oracles continues to grow.....and so do I! All good things!

We will talk again soon!
