A few days ago in my travels, I passed the above road sign and I thought, WOW, that is the road map of how I feel right now. Always running in circles chasing my tail 🙂 Now, I am not literally always chasing my tail. Nor, am I always figuratively running in circles, but I do oft feel that life gets caught in circles of behavior. It is easy to let your pattern define what you accomplish. A pattern of procrastination begets further procrastination. A pattern of expecting others to make decisions begets indecisiveness. The examples are endless. I am not a seamstress, but I do know if you want to make a pair of pants you do not start with a pattern for a The rest of the story

Is Your Life Routine?

It is easy for life to become routine. The problem with routine is that we stop noticing the world around us. It becomes easy to miss things when you see them daily. It also becomes easy to take people and things for granted. For example, when a relationship is new and different, it is almost impossible to not be aware of the other person. The newness of the relationship makes it all new and different. After being friends for quite some time; the relationship can become so comfortable that we forget to notice the person and the specialness of the relationship and take one another for granted.

My Funny Life

I don’t know if you believe you can manifest things in your life; but I do. Here’s my most recent story…. Last night I was at an event where someone asked when / if we were getting a new dog. The answer was my standard answer which goes something like this ‘I have never found a dog, they all have found me… I am not actively looking but I am open to the right dog finding me.’ This morning, I opened my email to find a photo of a cute pup from Marshall, KY who needed to be rescued. He called out to me from the photo, so I called Dalmatian Rescue of Southwest Virginia to inquire. Long story short, he is coming to live The rest of the story

Yesterday I was having a sugar attack; which is to say that I wanted some cake so bad I could hardly stand it! I didn’t feel well and I was lying on the couch at the end of the day complaining that I wanted cake. Chocolate cake!

SUGAR-Free Oreo’s! They are not as tasty as the The rest of the story
