The Sign

As I brush my teeth, I look at it. I have read it so many times I know it by heart, yet I read it twice a day. I remember the day my bestie gave it to me.  I opened it, and my heart sang.  It speaks to me.  To the way, I operate – give it all and then some. Somedays,...

A New Kind of Freedom

A New Kind of Freedom

Today I spent some time sitting by the water writing.  It’s been a while for both, it has been months since I got to sit by the ocean, and for the writing part, I pick up my journal fairly often, yet these days I don’t usually write in it. A combination of nothing has...

So different

So different

This is a great time to get my blog up and running again. It has been my pattern that when things get tough, I retreat and I have been working really hard on not doing that.  The reality – I let things go for many reasons and my blog – I got busy, it fell out of my...

Being ok with where you are

This has been the lesson I have had to learn in the last few years. I still don't really like it, yet it is now part of my life. In my dreams, I have surpassed where I am, I am speaking all around the continent, my businesses are more successful, I am the mom who...

Change of Scenery is Magical!

Change of Scenery is Magical!

Sometimes you just need to change it up. On Monday, I was sitting by a creek with lily pads and a duck coming over for a visit. I heard the birds and occasional splashes. I sat just listening and thinking for a while, getting some perspective and asking myself some...

Girl, you got this!

Girl, you got this!

Last weekend I did something very out of my comfort zone. I spent four days at a country music festival. It was not something I would have chosen yet I did it anyway. My good friend was getting married on stage Saturday night. She is dear to my heart, so much I made...

The Woohoo

The Woohoo

All week I have had this blog post on my mind, about getting it “right.” I realize that there is no right with this – it is a personal thing. What I am talking about is what my tribe and I call the woohoo. The unknown yet known; the forces we can't describe, however...

Sometimes you need pompoms

Sometimes you need pompoms

Last week was a long week; a midnight trip to the ER with my youngest – he has a broken wrist. My dear friend Annie let go and left this lifetime. It was the first week without my kids. Plus working, making my house mine, and Friday BBQing 500 hot dogs at the boys’...
