So Oprah has always talked about doing a daily gratitude journal and how much it has improved her life in so many ways. I can see where it would be good to sit down at the end of your day and jot down what you were grateful for that day. It is a great reminder […]
Years ago I read a book called The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. One of the four agreements that he says you should make with yourself is “be impeccable with your word.” I have been thinking about such things a lot lately. I consider myself to be a busy woman with a lot on […]
I was buying groceries drinking my coke I had just bought at Chik-fil-a when Bree wanted a drink. I reluctantly let her take a sip and told her she would have to drink her water. She probably asked me 5 more times over the next 20 minutes and I finally explained that mommy’s drink was […]
I was just at Wal-Mart running through trying to get groceries with 2 babies. I do it at least once a week and it is never easy but it usually goes well. Today I had a buggy full and Dj got choked a bit (nothing serious) and it caused him to vomit and vomit and […]

I have been reading a wonderful book by Elizabeth Gilbert lately. She spent four months of her life devoted to experiencing pleasure. Not only did she set out to experience real pleasure in her life but she chose to do so in Italy. She is my kind of lady! Who knows pleasure more than the […]
I have been very busy getting our house ready for the arrival of DJ, our sweet little boy that will be joining us sooner rather than later. This time is a bit different than when we were expecting Bree. With Bree I had nothing but time to do everything I wanted and then some, now […]
Happy Birthday Wendy!! I love you so much! Thank you for being such a wonderful sister to me! You are my rock whenever I need one and you let me be yours. You are loyal, I know that you’ve got my back girl! You are my girl to chit chat with any time of the […]
Well this is my very first post and the start of a new year! Don’t you just love new starts? I do! I think every Monday is a fresh start. Most people don’t like Mondays but I happen to love them for the most part. Its the fresh start to a whole new week with […]
