Y’all (see I’m practicing my Texas words)… I’m at the airport, where I’m delayed, headed to the IF:Gathering in Austin, Texas where I get to meet up with my longest friend in life and meet a whole bunch of new friends too! I’m soooooooo excited. Which might explain this punchy post. Anyhoo…since I didn’t find […]
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 […]
New Year: Recaps and Resolutions, Lists and Liquor
New Year’s: The end of an old year, the beginning of a new. A time for recaps and resolutions, lists and liquor. Right? Okay, we don’t do resolutions around here…and sadly, we never made it to the liquor cabinet for even one drink last night…BUT we did get to the recap and lists! Here’s the […]
How I Didn’t Manage It All
I don’t know how you do it. How do you manage it all? I have been asked this a lot over the last couple of years, since my son was diagnosed with anxiety and suffered severe bouts of depression. While managing through this, I was also working a full time job that required a hefty […]
The Wagon
I hate three syllable words. Actually I just hate one: ex-er-cise. Like most people, I get on a bandwagon, work out for a bit, then life gets in the way and I fall off that wagon like a drunk college girl on a Halloween hayride. But now I’m unemployed, so no more excuses! No more, […]
Love & Gratitude (#1)
I made it! 40 days, 40 posts, until I turn 40! And I’m 40! What an over the top, wonderful, happy day. And I owe all of that to all of you. It was a day filled will love and blessings – every direction I turned. I ate, I shopped. I ate some more. I […]
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 […]
I Work Out…Well, Sort of (#39)
Wait. A Minute. I just worked out. For three – yes three – days. In. A. Row. This is ground breaking. I even ran. And I wasn’t even chasing after a cupcake or something. Here’s the thing. I love cupcakes and candy. Potato chips and pizza. I love french fries and mini donuts, chocolate shakes […]
