• Crazy times….for Black Friday sales or something?

  

  It has never made sense to me why people trample each other for socks sales? I am all for good deals…at the expense of someone else’s life or injury…not worth. I can honestly say I haven’t been to Black Friday sales since I was a twenty something…I have since shopped on line for years. I…

• Happy Thanksgiving…be thankful for everything you have…🍁🍂🦃

  

  In a time when chaos is everywhere it is nice to know there is a national holiday that encourages you to eat, drink and spend time with family. My second favorite holiday! Last year we were unable to celebrate due to my family being inflicted with covid. They were times last year I wondered if…

• Whining…wine… and daily difficulties.

  

  It’s crazy to go to work sometimes and know exactly how tired you are…Whining helps at times…How little sleep time got the night before, due to worry. Stress. Your back hurting… wine helps… so does heating pads, epsom salt baths…did I mention wine? Trying to grasp motivation each and every day. Being tired. Being overworked.…

• Motivation to work…is key too changing your mindset.

  

  Editing as I mentioned is exhausting. It takes the joy out of writing. The fun out of creating. So your mindset is key to continually writing. Making your story shine bright. I keep telling myself tiredness is good, it means I’m working hard. This editing project would be so much easier if I wasn’t running…

• Speed, salt, and fun!

  

  My vacation was amazing! It was a wonderful family road trip (the first of its kind.) This one was epic. Across five states, in 100+ degree weather. Bonneville speed week was an amazing display of human ingenuity, engineering, and land speed records. I was impressed to say the least. Camping, was fun. Weather was all…

• Chilly nights…warm sweaters…an wine

  Do you ever have those days where mine is filled with so many things it’s overwhelming. You have a to do list, a pay things list, what do the kids need list, groceries. It’s a never ending ream of paper and thoughts. It’s true. I use coffee daily, water consistently and wine regularly to get…

• Illness and perseverance…

  It has been a tough year in so many respects. So many trials…very few positives. At times I wondered if I’d ever break out and see light again. I did. Physically I am recovering. Mentally I’m trying…my husband, mother in law, and myself survived COVID-19… I say that seriously there were times I was not…

• Rest well… once your mind stops…thinking…

  Does this happen to anyone else? I’m exhausted… yet my mind is running like I’ve drank a gallon of coffee? You breath…you try soothing music…nothing…then just before you fall asleep a noise wakes you up? 🤔 Then I have vivid dreams, or nightmares. It’s terrifying. 🤭 …yet sometimes creates story ideas (that’s why I have…
