It is in our human nature to see things only through a lens which supports the ideas that promote security and decrease anxiety. Nothing does either of those better than not having to make any changes. (Krista Rompolski) We’ve now settled into our new home, and it’s wonderful!! Gotta love the excitement and invigoration of
I never realized until recently, how much time I spend doing exhausting things. You know what opened my eyes? Being home-less. It has officially been 21 days since my husband and I have been in between homes. We had purchased a home in April that was supposed to be ready in June, but when we

People are dying of cancer…women my age are dying of cancer? It’s mind boggling and mortifying. It seems so random and so unfair. In the past couple of weeks, different friends of mine have been dealing with the deaths of their loved ones to cancer. It’s sad to see anyone lose a battle against cancer,

OMGSH! SHU@#$ UP!!!!! The voice in my head is so loud, I often can’t hear anything BUT what it’s saying! There was a time, when I was younger and maybe more naïve or idealistic that the voice in my head was much quieter. I was more tuned into the world outside of me, than what
Fall has arrived! It’s starting to cool down outside. Aside from wrapping a scarf around my neck and pulling out my fall jacket, I find myself wanting some heavier but delicious comfort foods. A fresh green summer salad just doesn’t have the same appeal on a crisp cool day. But it’s not grease that I’m wanting,
