This is a picture of where we are living now. Our house is on the left and my mom & sister are living in the house on the right. This is a picture from Google Maps, so those are not our cars. LOL! Continue reading

I love blogging… really I love writing. I always have. I wanted to be a journalist for a short time, until I realized that it was almost as difficult to get published as it was to get into the movies. That’s when I decided that I’d just write for fun. When I realized that I could publish my own works on my own website, it was fantastic! But few, if anyone, ever saw my websites. That is until I learned to blog and how to get my blog seen online.

Today I am thankful for our new house. It is simply perfect for us. The boys will have their own rooms, there’s a basement with plenty of room for a poker table. I have a huge kitchen, with all new(er) appliances. There’s a dog run, a laundry room, and a nice large pool. The only thing that could make this place even better is to be near my mom & sister….. well, how’s next door?

Wanted: 1 Magic Wand (Used is fine as long as it still works), batteries not included ok. Must pack entire household with a flip of the wrist, and move stuff from old house to new house and office with out the need for a rental truck. Or at the very least will move all the heavy stuff from the house into the rental truck.. I’m not THAT picky! Serious enqueries only. Willing to pay a lot of money for wand, but still would like to pay no more than what it would cost to do the stuff myself . Will also take magic wand that will make my teen sons stop whineing about needing to pack and move, and put a happy face on when I ask them to do things…. LOL! Yea I know I’m dreaming about a wand that will make teenagers helpful!
Stressed & Waiting…. My Two Favorite Things…. NOT!
Stressed, yes, that is the word of the day… maybe even the week… or month! But really it’s all good right? Things are popping for us in so many different ways that I’m getting dizzy! But most of it’s good change. But change, no matter what kind it is, usually makes me a stress bunny! So that’s exactly what’s kept me from posting lately. I’m so stressed I can’t even think straight! LOL!
Failure IS An Option! Failing In February.
I’ve been doing some life coaching through Life Compass, which gives me 2 coaching calls a month. My coach is Randee Krumwiede, and she is really great. This month we are working through Failure. Using Failure as the foundation to success. Because without failure you can not know success. I was going to write about this earlier today because the topic really hit home for me, but I kept putting it off. Not because we were busy with work, though we were in the morning. No I didn’t write about it because it was a scary topic for me…. I was failing!
365 Thank Yous – Thank You Julie!
I wanted to give a great big Thank you to my friend Julie. She’s a CPA and Steve and I had some questions about our business, taxes, and turning our business into an LLC. She met us this morning at… Continue reading
Thankful Thursday – My Spirituality
I’ve been reading a book, “A Course In Weight Loss: 21 Spiritual Lessons for Surrendering Your Weight Forever” by Marianne Williamson, that has been really speaking to my soul. It’s not an easy book to get through because each chapter is a different lesson on reconnecting yourself to the Divine and letting go of all the emotional pain that has caused you to gain weight. So although I’ve been reading the book for a few weeks, I’m barely into the 3 chapter. This is a true WORK book. The part of chapter 3 that I’m in right now, talks about letting go and giving to God (or whatever you want to call your higher power) all the things that are too much for you to handle. I found it very fortuitous (maybe even coincidental) that I”m reading that part of the chapter the night before “Thankful Thursday”. Because now I have what I’m thankful for! I am very thankful for the Divine in my life.
Thankful Thursday – My Mom

There are a lot of people that I love and am thankful for in my life. There are people who have been supportive of me, who have helped me in so many different ways. But none of them compare to my mom. Even as a little girl I knew how lucky I was to have her as a mom, and that has never changed. That is why I wanted to say Thank You to My Mom today on this beautiful Thankful Thursday.
365 Days of Thank Yous – Double Post
This weekend was a nice one. I got to see one of my best friends and her new little baby, got to spend some “quality” time with Steve, and even got to meet one of my long time customers face to face. There’s so many people I have to say thank you to, I don’t know where to start! Since I didn’t post yesterday, I figured I’d do a double helping of thanks though! Maybe more.
