  • A New Year – A Challenge to Lobsters Everywhere

    What the heck? I’m starting to read the book 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos to kick off this year. And I’m thinking of using the book as a month-by-month guide. One chapter each month. One rule to set into place. One new mind-set to focus on. The first chapter is titled “Stand…

    Day 8 – 4 Easy Hacks for a Better 2018

    This year has started a little rocky. As I mentioned before, I got sick on January 2. Welcome 2018! Don’t mind me….I’ll be over here buried in Kleenex and cough drop wrapped! And then my husband got sick. It was inevitable. I know. (Insert joke about what happens when men get sick here…) So I’ve…

    Today was my first day back to the gym after Christmas, and man, was it hard. But so good, and so needed! I may not be able to walk tomorrow, but getting those endorphins kicking so I could sweat out weeks of cookies, cocktails and binge watching Netflix seemed to be just what my brain and body…

  • Happy 2017

    Happy 2017

      I have a confession to make.  I love that New Years Day falls in the dead of winter. Sure it can make travel difficult and outdoor New Year’s celebrations are a bit of a crapshoot.  But the theme of the day is fresh starts. Giving thanks for the blessings of the past, saying goodbye to…

  • Pushing the Reset Button

    Pushing the Reset Button

    It’s July 1. How did that even happen?  I blinked, and suddenly we are half way through a year that feels like it just began. Wasn’t it just Valentines Day? Since Easter, I feel like I’ve been out of balance. Too much work. Not enough exercise. Not enough time with friends. Too many foods that…
