What do you want to do today? If I’d really been on my planning game, I’d have had this post done ahead of time and scheduled to go live at Midnight, so you’d have the entire 24 hours. Instead, here we are, nearly half-way through the day. But that’s ok. I’ve not been idle – …
There are times when it might not look like it, but I am all about being organized. I love me a good list. Everything has a place, and that’s where it goes, without fail. I like to find a way to do a certain task and when I’ve got something workable, that’s how I do …
Let me just do this one last thing, then I can… If you’re anything like me, you have either said–or more likely thought–the above line, followed by words like “Rest” or “Do that thing I really enjoy.” Not just this month, or even this week, but sometime within the last 24 hours. We’re all busy …
It’s been a week. And I say that from my own, personal, experience which doesn’t include the wider world and everything that’s going on out there. I’ve been staying away from that and, I’d wager, it was a good decision. Still, there’s been pressure to produce, even though, at the end of the day, I’ve …
Life has been pretty heavy this past week and some change. So much so, that I’d had to pull back into complete self-care mode. I’d missed a couple of post here – which is pretty rare, and I hadn’t been doing much in the way of writing. This made the part of me that demands …
Happy Sunday (or whenever you’re reading this) Friends. This week’s post needs to be a short one. Not because I’m under any kind of Time constraint, though. It’s just that there’s a beautiful day outside my window and I need to step away from the world for a while and, go out into it. So …
Happy SUNday readers! That above line may look like it’s got a typo in it, but it’s intentional. Today was super nice out and, after a winter that seemed to last forever, I couldn’t help but spend most of it outside – hence this late-in-the-day post. And I don’t feel guilty (or, I’m trying not …
Happy Sunday Readers! Short post this week. There may be a bit of contradiction in the title of the post this week, but bear with me. Earlier today, I got a very pointed reminder of the benefits of being in the present moment. It happened while I was outside doing chores. We’ve entered the time …
You’ve earned a rest. How often have you heard that? How often have you said this to yourself, like rest is some kind of reward? It’s a natural part of our vocabulary. We’re conditioned to believe that we can’t rest until we’ve done enough work. But here’s the thing: We’re working all the time. Here’s …
If you’ve been reading the blog recently – and if you have, thanks! You’ll have seen on Thursday that I was in the hospital quite recently. When this post goes live, I will have been home for three days now. That’s three days of rediscovering the edges of what I’m able to do and what …
