I used to look at obstacles as awful. The worst. I am weak. I cannot do it. I’m not strong enough. The voice in my head…I’m too old. I hurt to much. I changed jobs for an easier life. What are they trying to do kill me? When a wrench is thrown I usually run…

Change is inevitable…women can be change…joy is on the horizon.
A few more days and my entire life is about to change. New job. New schedule. Freedom from debt…joy begins! After a decade in a job, I do well. I decided I wanted something more. For myself. For my family. To wake up each morning and be excited about a job again. After the joy…

Surgery…strength…marriage survival.💕
I was mostly absent last month due to my husband having major surgery. It was a scary, exhausting month. A lot of tears were shed. I was tested beyond normal limits. The fear of losing my husband gave me the strength to move forward even though I had no idea what I was doing. I…
