Giving the power to my Kids – what’s your BIG WHY?

If I knew then what I know now… something we’ve heard a million times for sure! But, I really think our kids can be given so much power. So much knowledge and confidence. I wish my parents had given me more confidence and internal belief in myself. Honestly, I think it took me 50 years

The energy flow!

Wow, I can not even explain the energy difference I feel being sober. I am accomplishing things I’ve had on my to do list for a long time and things I would brush under the rug. I’m very excited about it! I’ve set up the cabin, set up a new recording studio, started new workout

Vision Boards

Do you do a yearly vision board? This is something I started doing again a few years ago. It’s so interesting to see how much you can accomplish when you set your mind to it. One statement I recently heard from a fellow realtor (I am not sure where it originated, but I love it!)

Rain is Refreshing Renewal

I’m so happy it’s 100% chance of rain today on January 1, 2021 because to me, rain always has symbolized renewal. It has been present at many important milestones in my life and I always recognize it during times of transition. I’m excited about the new year and making some basic changes in my life.

2020 good BYE!

I am happy to say goodbye to 2020. I started it with great intentions but it bit me hard! I sucked at 2020! Looking back it was such a trying year. We had to make the very tough decision to place our 16 year old son in a Christian boarding school due to his behavior.

Thinking about Too Much Thinking

Yep, that’s me! I am thinking too much and not taking action. Thinking about how things should or could be instead of taking the steps to make them happen. This is a cycle of behavior I need to get past! I plan and plan and think and I find myself stuck. So I need to

Getting back to my Plan

Well… 2020 has not worked out to be anything I expected. I have not accomplished what I set out to do so far this year. It’s been a crazy year with COVID-19, to say the least. But… I feel like I’m just not doing what I need to do. I know what it is. I

Teen troubles

I didn’t realize how much of my focus was on him. Worrying about him. Checking his bed in the middle of the night to see if he was still there. How drained I was from the constant power struggles. He really put me and my husband through a lot of pain for the last year.

Quarantine and life goals

So, life is funny. When I started this journey and started documenting my journey through this blog I had very specific goals that I thought were going to be my “answer” to finding my true path, my perfect life. Well, now I see it’s just not so simple. I started out thinking that I needed

Vegan Learning curve

Wow, I am absolutely shocked at what I’ve been learning. I honestly don’t know how I got through 50 years of life not knowing that a plant based diet is so healthy, has protein and supports healthy arteries and cholesterol. Seriously I was raised by my parents who grew up on dairy farms! That’s all
