Sometimes the Laundry is Everest
Ninety-seven days… I’m not kidding when I say I have a mountain of laundry piled high enough for experienced climbers to train for Everest. I aim to keep my house tidy. However, I do have a sign in my kitchen serving as a disclaimer (just in case you catch me on a not-so-tidy day) that reads, “Martha Stewart doesn’t live here!” For years, I...
Count Your Blessings
Ninety-eight days… Do you remember the movie White Christmas? In the movie there is a song I absolutely love. I used to sing it to my son when he was little, and I still find myself singing it all the time.

I’m almost positive the first entry I ever wrote was on February 1, 1998. ...
Lessons I Learned…

I’m shy, and because of my reserved personality, it is not uncommon for me to be misunderstood. There have been people who have deemed me, “stuck up,” or “unapproachable.” I’m guilty of neither of those two...
Joy, Coffee, and Chapter Two
One hundred two days... I’m excited about today! I have no idea why. There is nothing different about today. There are No parties, no shopping trips, nothing at all out of the ordinary. Who knows? Maybe it’s the caffeine rushing through my bloodstream. I just consumed a strong cup of coffee. Another confession… I have a love affair with...
