28 Minutes: Challenge and Vulnerability
This one is extremely difficult for me to share and I am not just talking about literally having to limp over to my computer because my legs and ass are sore. No, this is by far one of the most challenging posts to date for me, but one that is necessary. Why? Vulnerability. I have written about personal things before but I think this is the first time I have written about ME. Like, the raw and open and flawed me. You see, I don’t want anyone to worry about me or to think I am not “okay,” because first of all mom, I am okay, let me get that…

DockATot: Worth it?
DockATot, my honest review… I have seen this innovative product that is extremely multi-functional all over social media. I saw this around the time I had my now two year old son, it looked heavenly, I was sleep deprived and desperate for sleep. However, I was worried because everything we were trying to get my son to sleep was not working… so, because of the unknowns and maybe even more so because I had already spent a fortune trying other failed products, the price tag of the DockATot kept me away, mostly because no one I knew had one (yet). I thought maybe just another “incredible” blogger product rather than…
Fear: to have and to hold?
Let’s talk about FEAR… such a dreadful word really, the connotation is quite frightening in and of itself! What are you most afraid of? What is/are your biggest fear(s)? Do you run from them? Address them? Find ways to embrace them? Me? I am afraid most of LOSS! Loss of self. Loss of time. Loss of love. Loss of happiness. Loss of laughter. Loss of youth. Loss of friendships. Most afraid to the loss of people. So, how do we address our fears and embrace them? Well, I am no expert on the matter… but I think it’s time for me to get really real here. I cry at almost…
Resolutions: Worthy or Not?
I’ve been debating whether I buy in to the whole “New Year’s Resolution” thing and quite frankly have not made resolutions in a few years now (some 40+% of Americans actively set resolutions)… I have been doing some self-study and trying to figure out why this is? Underlying is a whole greater discussion really, a sort of taking myself apart to understand each piece and why some parts of me that I loved so dearly are missing and others have perhaps taken their place. Is this just part of evolution of self, loss of self, or gaining a new self? Well, this must be something in the minds of many…
2017: Time to Go Beautifully
This quote was given to me on a metal bookmark years ago and immediately captured me. These seven words have literally guided me through some very difficult times in my life, and almost always when I am wondering if I can, should, etc. this quotes some how finds me again and I am reminded that I can do anything… even if that means fail! Well, it is official… I have joined the world of blogging and to be completely honest, I am terrified! This fear has kept me from doing this very thing that I am doing right now, writing so you and the rest of the world can access my thoughts,…
