That’s it. London 2o12 has commenced. What a great couple weeks it was, watching so many dedicated and determined athletes competing in world games. Showing us what drive, determination and talent can become. Even more inspiring was seeing the impact women made on the games this year. Did you know that: For the first time […]
Rooms Full of Light (#7)
Sometimes, when we least expect it, when we’re not looking for it, we are surprised by something. Often, however…we are so busy with our routines that we miss these little things that matter. It could be a moment, it could be a smile, it could be a small does of inspiration. The other day, I […]
Life Gets Hard…Look Up (#8)
Sometimes, life gets hard. Sometimes, life gets stressful. Sometimes…we wonder how we’re going to make it through another day. And sometimes, we find it really hard to feel blessed and grateful for what we have. And it is on these days, when it feels so hard, and so challenging to find good in the day […]
The Gig is Up (#9)
Alright. The gig is up. I’m not really the four time Olympian, 2012 gold medal wearing, water polo player, Heather Petri. Nope. Hard to believe, I know. But that’s not me. She exists. She’s just a different Heather Petri. And we lead very different lives. Can you see me as a water polo player? I’m […]
Loving Through Silence and Disconnect (#10)
So here’s the deal. I’m just outright exhausted and have very little energy and strength remaining, so tonight…I’m recycling. I’m reposting an entry that was published on my previous blog back in March. Perhaps some call it cheating. Me? I just call it sharing. Thanks for understanding. ***************************************************************** If you are mother, you know pain. […]
Cupcakes (#11)
I love cupcakes. Who doesn’t? Seriously. If you’ve been reading my blog since the beginning, you know I’m planning a party for myself for my 40th. And so you know what that means…more cupcakes! Today I went to the new cupcake shop in town called Nadia Cakes. They’ve only been open a few weeks and […]
AARP and Me (#12)
True Story. I was sitting here, looking at the blank screen on my computer, trying to decide what to write for today’s blog post. While watching the cursor blink, I got distracted and decided to check my email and found this: ____________________________________________________ From: AARP Membership Special <aarpmembership@sillonet.com> Subject: Free “Insulated Travel Bag” for Joining or […]
When I Grow Up… (#13)
What do you want to do when you grow up? Or are you already there? Me? I’m working on it. Figuring it out. There’s something about turning forty that causes one to take a temperature reading of their life and evaluate all parts of it. It doesn’t seem that long ago that I was walking […]
Dare to dream… (#14)
“Dreams are illustrations…from the book your soul is writing about you.” – Marsha Norman
Glitter, Glowsticks and Unicorns. (#15)
Another day in NYC, another day at BlogHer. The vast majority of the day was spent indoors in meetings, workshops and in the Expo hall connecting with bloggers. These conferences are fun and engaging, but totally and completely exhausting. To help the bloggers have some fun and enjoy a night out, BlogHer has several ‘official’ […]
