Think about this… If you had a child with their dominant arm and hand in a cast, it wouldn’t be uncommon for the school to provide an extra book for the child to keep at home and also provide an alternative for writing down their assignments, because they’re unable to write, correct? Seeing as how […]
Imperfect Progress
Oh my friends. It’s the New Year! Have you heard? And you know what that means, right? The NEW YOU! The first of January hits and suddenly we’re feeling like we need to radically transform who we are, what we do and how we do it. We make resolutions and plans to transform ourselves […]
Let the New Year Ring in with Love and Kindness, and Let it Begin with You
Listen y’all. This is what I’m doing. I’m starting my new year focused on being kind to myself. And that means I’m home, in yoga pants and flannel shirt. On New Year’s Eve. With no plans. Other than eating alcohol infused cupcakes from my favorite cupcakery. I’m going to attempt to quiet the negative and […]
Undone CHRISTmas Part Two: Gingerbread Houses are Meant for Eating
The Undone CHRISTmas part two. That’s what we’ve got here. You see, gingerbread houses are meant for eating. I finally figured that out. I know…it took me a while. Anyhoo…as I mentioned in my last post, The Undone CHRISTmas, I’m learning the practice of letting go. Letting go of this whole perfection thing that adds so much […]
The Undone CHRISTmas
You know, every year I say to myself, ‘I’m getting my Christmas cards ordered before Thanksgiving so I can fill them out Thanksgiving weekend and get them in the mail on Dec. 1st!’ And every year, I feel like I fail because I don’t. Seriously. Every. Darn. Year. And you know, the only person who […]
I’m DONE! For now anyway…
Day 30 of National Blog Posting Month (NABloPoMo). You know what that means, right? I’m DONE! Finished! Finito! For now anyway. This is a big deal to me. Because writing and publishing work, every day, for 30 days straight is hard work. Which you’ve already heard me whining about in previous posts. The big deal […]
Just Another Regular Saturday…or Not
It was just another regular Saturday around here…or not. Because when was the last time YOUR mom challenged you to an arm wrestling match? No? Not recently? Just me, then? Yes. It’s true. Today, I arm wrestled my mother. We were out at a family breakfast at one of our favorite places and she challenged […]
Five Frivolous Friday Fun Facts – Second Edition
Here we go…day 28 of National Blog Post Month (NaBloPoMo). Are we there yet? It’s kind of what it feels like. Writing is hard work. Period. But writing publish worthy work EVERY DAY, even harder. But this isn’t news, you’ve heard me whine about this already in one of my other 27 posts this month. And […]
Thanksgiving Blessings
It’s late. And it’s been a long day. But I’m ever so grateful for all I’ve been blessed with and wanted to be sure I shared that. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who stop by here to read the writings of my heart. I […]
Enjoy It Anyway
I see all these mamas…running around cleaning and baking, cooking and organizing, getting ready for Thanksgiving. And you know what? So many of them are stressed and stretched, twisted tight and wrung out. And so you know what I wanna say to all these mamas? It’s going to be okay. Enjoy it anyway. There’s going […]
