OK, so I’m freaking out a little (ok…a lot). My Aunt and Uncle are coming in town this Friday, and the house is…well, less than clean. It wouldn’t bother me so much, but my Aunt is a super clean neat freak. Why do these things get my panties...

It’s funny. Over the past few years since we moved to Austin, we would have killed to have been invited to a Halloween party…or any party for that matter. Now that my son is almost 3 years old, and we have gotten to know quite a few people through...

My head is literally spinning right now. I had a fabulous morning with my babies. I got up, got the boys fed and all of us dressed and immediately got in the car to go to the mall. Why? Because I needed to get out of the house and there were a couple of sales...

I didn’t make it online yesterday, and that’s OK…but, all morning it’s been causing me stress. MY GRATITUDE LIST, among other things I planned on doing yesterday, didn’t get written. But, you know what? I had a great day! I hung out...

OK, so I’m definitely being challenged on my gratitude today. Wouldn’t you know it? The second I decide to attempt a shift in my perspective on life, I am freakin’ challenged?! My Dad always says, “No good deed ever goes unpunished.” I...

As I was thinking about what I would post tonight, I immediately had the idea of restarting my gratitude notebook. I heard about this several years ago on Oprah and actually started one when my first son was born. Then, like everything I start, I let it go by the...

OK, so I’m still chewing on this, and despite my DESPERATE need for sleep, I need to empty my mind a little. Several years ago, while living in Vienna, Austria, I found myself sitting alone in my (cold) apartment, journal in hand, dumping all of my thoughts out...

I’ve been chewing on this idea about what a new way of being would look and feel like for me. My first thoughts go right to my wardrobe and all the physical aspects about myself that I don’t necessarily like right now. Not that I hate the way I look or...

I started taking a telecourse today called, A New Way of Being. Part of me feels it’s the wrong place/wrong time to take such a course, and the other part of me feels like it is just down my alley. I am, like many mothers of young children, finding very little...

Sleep. It’s something that is so taken for granted when you get enough of it, but it’s so coveted and obsessed about when you can’t seem to get any. I’m so grouchy and literally beside myself with sleep deprivation that I can’t seem to...
