If The Circus Beckons: Try The Three L’s
When I was a little girl, especially after a rotten day, I would contemplate running away to the circus. We had visited a place called “Circus World” where the folks working for Barnum & Bailey Circuses would train, and it seemed an ideal place to escape. Because,...
Celebrating the Journey from 45 to 46
I will be turning forty-six this coming week. On the average day, I remind myself that we should always be celebrating the journey through this life. I do that most of the time, and to be honest, I still feel thirty-six, until I happen to walk by a mirror and catch...Shoring Up: Body, Heart and Soul
Recently I read that some of the recent research on sleep shows that we can bank extra sleep in preparation for a late night ahead but it takes our bodies two weeks to catch up. I find the blending of science and practicality fascinating in all kinds of ways. What...The Season’s of Transformation
Though there was fresh snow on the ground this week, Mother Nature is also showing proof that we are edging our way to spring. Literally overnight, bright green leaves from the bulbs I planted in October are beginning to burst forth into the world. Winter has been...Explore Your Story: An Invitation to Create
Who you are is significant. Though we sometimes feel incredibly small or unimportant in the seas of humanity, know that your story is part of the thread of fabric that makes up this world. I like to look at the world as a beautifully woven tapestry. Each of our lives...Decide to Make Your Dreams Your Reality
When I confess that I love my daily life, inevitably I hear from someone deep in the muck that retort with a sarcastic “must be nice.” That it’s easy for me to say the path to happiness is becoming smitten with yourself because my life is easy. That I can write about...
Be Enchanted With Your Life
I’m going to tell you a little secret about me, so listen close. Because, though it’s about me personally, I never share anything that wouldn’t help you to create a life you love. I love the rhythm of my everyday life. From waking up, to packing JB’s lunch, to my...Is Clutter Blocking You From Living?
One of the things that makes me happy is to be able to welcome a guest into our home. Whether it’s for a cup of coffee and some cake, a shared meal, or an overnight stay, I love being able to connect face-to-face with people I care about. I’m an extrovert and it feeds...Are You Drinking the Sand?
In the midst of the holiday season, it’s understandable when our minds drift down memory lane. We remember the smell of our grandmother’s house and her cornbread dressing with lots of sage. We remember Santa always leaving us an orange in our stocking. We remember the...
Attack Those Piles & Clear That Clutter
There’s something about the change in seasons that begs for pulling out blankets and settling in for marathons of Angel or Mad Men…and reading all those summer novels you swore you were going to read, but didn’t. And, baby, I am all for some leisure time and play....Darling, It’s Time To Clear Up Those Undones
Let me tell you one of the secrets to creating a life you love: you can’t welcome the new into your life until you let go of the old stuff that is no longer a part of your path forward. I’ve been reminded of this the last couple of weeks. Often. The first thing...
