Life

Goal Getter   You don’t drown by falling into the water, you drown by staying there. I want to change everything and nothing all at once.  What if things stay the same? What if they don’t? What if? What’s bothering you?  What do you want to change?     I listened to an audio book…

Sometimes I run to burn off the crazy. I know I’ve said it before, I reach this doormat breaking point.  Doing everything, for everyone and realize I’m stuck in this hole and can’t climb out of it and that’s when I realize – I need to exercise. It’s a vicious cycle – Overworked, stressed out,…

The biggest failure in any relationship is unsaid expectations. I’m not easy to love. I’m challenging, sensitive, and emotional. I do hold a lot on my shoulders having everyone else’s emotions affect my own. For years I let someone else hold my happiness in their hands – when in reality it has nothing to do…

Everything happens in its own time and every step of this journey has brought me to where I am today. “Stay committed to your decisions but stay flexible in your approach.” -Tom Robbins Three weeks of Keto and I’ve lost five pounds. I’m not super happy with that.  It’s making me batty to be quite…

Weekend warriors A Sunday well spent bring a week of content…or chaos one of those It’s hard to find balance there’s so much to be accomplished on the weekends and I don’t want to sacrifice time with my kids doing fun things too. But we find a way to conquer it all. I ask a lot of…

Spring – what a wonderful opportunity for a new beginning. New mindset. Every experience has brought me to where I am in this very moment. It’s finally thawing out (or so it feels) here this week and I couldn’t help but have a smile on my face as I was riding around running errands for…

I’ll do everything within my own means to make the days count – not count the days. I lost both of my parents pretty young – on the cusp of retirement and they didn’t even touch on most of the things they wanted to do. You’ve got one shot, make it count. This is by…

After the week I’ve had – I spent nearly the entire the day in bed, and I don’t even feel a tad guilty. The only time I left was to go to the doctor, get my blood work and pick up Chinese food tonight (which I ate in bed), because; why the hell not? Just over…
