When I want more clothing, I make space in my closet. If I need more space in my cupboards, I re-organize and throw out the things I don’t need. As I pick up friends in my car, I make space by putting up my third row of seating (yes, I drive a total mom car).… Read More Space
I am done chasing. Like a dog chasing its tail, I’ve run round and round in circles. Over the years, I’ve chased many friendships and relationships. It has felt like a never-ending merry-go-round that has always ended with the same conclusion – me becoming exhausted. Recently, I stopped. I just stopped. I woke up one… Read More Done Chasing
I sat on the wooden ledge in the front window and watched the snow fall under the streetlights. It was a narrow, unstable ledge, but there I sat as close as possible to the most beautiful snowfall I had ever seen. The kind of storm with the big, fluffy snowflakes that you want to catch… Read More Fall
In a way, we are all trailblazing through life. We are creating paths that have never been traveled before. While we learn from lessons and listen to the guidance of those older than us, the fun part of living is learning and trailblazing. The other day I was walking down the street, and I thought… Read More Trailblazing
This title is a little ironic in the current circumstances, but I assure you this mask has nothing to do with the pandemic. Although, I would say that the time alone during it has given me ample time to think about this topic… When I was a kid, I loved playing dress-up. If there was… Read More Take Your Mask Off
I woke up, and I was suddenly showered with regret. I’m sure the average person has had at least ONE of those nights. Whether it is a night that is a little too much fun, or the middle-of-the-night (somewhat crazy-puff) moments where we can’t resist, we’ve had a 3 a.m. regret. For me, it was… Read More 3 a.m. Regret
Today, I found a quote from Maya Angelou on LinkedIn, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Originally, my blog post was going to be called “An Honest Letter To A Friend,” but this seemed to suit the post even better. 🙂 You see, we all… Read More Know Better, Do Better
We’ve all heard the saying that “less is more”, but what about when “more is less”? Hear me out for a minute… Over the years, I have become obsessed with many things. Yes, I would say that “obsessed” is a fair statement. These things have sometimes been great (like golf) and other times not so… Read More More Is Less
With all of this extra time at home, it is shocking that I haven’t been writing. I do not have an excuse. I’ve purely been distracted with other things; however, when I video-chatted with a friend last week, she encouraged me. “I’m been sitting here and waiting for your next post,” she said. Well, thank… Read More Quaran-To-Do
To all of my regular readers, I apologize for the long delay since my last post. Every now and then, it is healthy to take a break and re-evaluate. I needed to hit pause on this blog because I felt like it was heading a bit off track. You see, when I started this blog… Read More Hitting Pause
