Presence Matters

Hey…..I’m laying on this workout mat after these 50 minutes of High Intensity Interval Training feeling exhausted. Give me a moment to catch my breath. The trainer has us stretching our hamstrings and hips as this lower body focused workout rendores soreness in my near future–like as soon as I get off of this floor–future!…

No Service

The phone itself is an addictive device, but there are two times when I get the most aggravated with it. Don’t let my phone be dead when I need to make a call or not get a connection to the person I am calling. Am I the only one who thinks that when you Facetime…

No One Told Me

I dreamed of it since I was a little girl! The idea of becoming someone special to some very important people danced around in my mind. Everywhere I turned, I found myself staring at all of those hands and feet. The clean and the snotty….paws of children! I wanted to be a mommy. People have…

Family For What
This year, I was able to spend Thanksgiving with the paternal side of my family. Though the family is large in number, it actually was just a few cousins who I grew up with until about the age of five, their spouses, and their children. It had been decades since I spent this much time…

Leading Stinks
Being a leader has its highs and lows. Do you currently serve in a leadership position? A leader leads in a business, in a family, on a team, in the community, or even the carpool line. I, too, serve in many different leadership roles. But in my opinion, I have concluded that leadership stinks. However,…

What Are We Saying?
Oftentimes, I wonder how people process information. Personally, I overthink everything most of the time. In order to free my mind from things, I have to force myself to not think about them. For others, they may be the total opposite. I do believe, however, that there are some people who are so unconcerned about…
