Today was a rough day. If you’ve read my recent blog posts, you will know I’ve been going through a struggle with owning my voice. Today proved to be a day of much character building and finding my voice amongst a barrage of not so inspiring opinions from others. Anyway, in order to get out … Continue reading »

Rocks
I’ve been obsessed with rocks lately. Well, “obsessed” is an overstatement. I guess I’ve just been much more aware of their presence in the world lately. I find myself being curiously magnetized to certain rocks during my daily walks or while out at recess with the kids. I mean, it’s not every rock I see … Continue reading »
You Never Know….
I think I spread a nice warm fuzzy last night…. and I touched my own heart in the process. You see, several years ago when I was freshly separated (and not yet divorced), I enrolled in school. It wasn’t the easiest thing in the world to do, what with school starting just two days after … Continue reading »
Beautiful
Thank you, Mari for nominating me for this beautiful award. Though my blog activity is sporadic these days for a variety of reasons, mostly because wordpress is acting quite wonky on my end (I generally cannot comment on other blogs… only ONE in several comments I try to make actually goes through). Though I do … Continue reading »
Warm Fuzzies Abound!
When I share a meal with friends, it is not unusual for me to ask everyone at the table what they are grateful for. I love doing this because it gets others outside of themselves and whatever “chaos” may be going on in their day to shift focus onto everything that is right, perfect and just plain … Continue reading »
My Own Personal Award Show!
*Please do NOT get dressed up for my award show. In fact, I encourage you to wear your expandable pants and find something yummy to eat if you are in attendance.* When I dumped facebook about six weeks ago, I made a decision to give my blog a facelift and began devoting time to developing … Continue reading »
Tag! I’m IT!
When is the last time you played a good game of TAG? For me it’s been at least 20 years… I can’t believe I’m old enough to say and remember twenty years ago! Anyway, I am so grateful because lately I have been accumulating not only awards on my blog, but also games of TAG! … Continue reading »
I’d Like to Thank….. You and You and YOU!
Today I was nominated for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award! Yay, I am so excited because I haven’t been nominated for this one yet and just the nature of the name “Very Inspiring Blogger” makes my heart tingle with warm fuzzies. The person who nominated me is from a blog I came across last night as … Continue reading »
Thank you so much!
I’ve gotten a few nominations for blogging awards over the past few months, and though I usually feel grateful for the acknowledgement, I never take action on them (for no particular reason). Today, when I got another one, I thought I should participate this time. SO Thank you 6 Months to Live! Your blog inspires … Continue reading »
Gentle Reminders
I slept until noon today. I didn’t get that refreshing rest that I needed. No, I slept on the couch for most of the night waking up every few hours wanting to go to bed, but feeling too lazy and lifeless to do any such thing. Image found here I finally made my way to traditional bed at 5:30 … Continue reading »
