This Kind Of Tired
This is precisely the kind of tired I plan to be over the next few days. In less than 24 hours I fly out with my son to the gorgeous mountains of Colorado. He will run a Spartan race with his friends while we cheer them on and the next day we will all take a long hike...
Hallways
I laughed so hard when I saw this on Pinterest that you would have thought someone was torture tickling me. But for real! It wouldn't be so funny if it wasn't so true. Am I right?!?! Happy Friday my friends! May you find more open doors than hallways. 🤣 #fridayfunny...
Choices
We all understand that every action is a choice. But to get to the core of it, ever INACTION is also a choice. Whether you choose to go in one direction or you choose to stand still, those are both choices that have consequences. Are you ready to to accept the reality...
Positive Pants!
Sometimes I look at my calendar in the morning and the day ahead looks daunting as hell. I want to stomp my feet like a 2 year old and go back to bed. Enter stage right: Positive pants! I literally have two pairs of pants that just make me feel good when I wear them....

My relationship with coffee is a sorted affair. I never used to drink coffee at all. I recall receiving a coffee mug as a gift in my early 20's thinking, "What am I going to do with this?" Then my little sister bought a coffee shop. An adorable little drive through...
Stress
The last few nights have been rough and I haven't got much sleep. I'm tired to the core of my being. Shane had some outpatient surgery and he has some pain he is dealing with which causes him not to be able to sleep well. In addition, one of the dogs is sure that her...
Action Trumps Fear
If there is a single lesson I could teach anyone, it would be that action is the single key to everything you have ever wanted. We all want to learn and talk and grow intellectually, but the moment we have to do something with that knowledge that puts us in the...
Be the Light
I have a colleague that literally lights up a room when she walks in. Positivity and happiness radiates off of her. When you say, "It's good to see you!" Her response is, "It's good to be seen." It is the most honest response I have ever heard as we all want to be...
