Sometimes You Just Need a Day Off

For those working Momma's out there...sometimes...(and I hope you realize it) you just need a day off. If I share anything in common with any of the other working moms out there in the world, I could probably bet that many of you hate taking a day off. For some of you, it just means there's that much to catch up on when you get back to work. For others, it might mean that you're short on pay for a day. I have been both of those. The latter is a real issue whether you're a working mother or not;…

Taking Care of Friendship

Today, as I attempted to catch up on the backlog of emails in my inbox, I perused through some of my favorite blogs.  As I was doing so, I happened across a few articles about friendship, the importance of developing friendships, and the like.  It got me thinking.  I don't like to jump on the bandwagon, but when something speaks to me, I feel I need to write it.  (And by the way, you can check out what I read at incourage at The Art of Simple.) On the radio the other day, I heard one person ask another what…

Intentional

Well, folks, I'm back for the new year!  I can't promise I'll remember to post regularly, but I'll try to post when I can.  I wanted so badly to post many of the projects and recipes we made last year but never got around to it.  Life happened.  I'm sure many of you other moms out there can identify. I'm sure many of you are reading now about making new years goals and resolutions.  I'm not one to try to jump on the bandwagon, but I've been making resolutions since before I was a teenager, and though I fail many…

I Forgot My Sneakers (at the Gym)

Nope. I'm not kidding. I got myself all the way down to the gym, opened my gym bag, and realized it. I forgot my sneakers! They were sneakers like the ones from vessifootwear.com, so now you can understand my frustration when I realised I left them at the gym. I had one job. And my sports bra. And my headphones. And I had gone out of my way in the morning to make sure I remembered a change of clothes and a pair of socks ready for the gym. I couldn't believe myself. But I couldn't leave! The front desk…

It’s Funny…

You know how I've been talking about flexibility lately? Well this week was another one of those weeks.  I seem to be having a lot of those.  The funny part is that I was trying to catch up on my reading for the Bible study I'm involved in at church. Starting way back at four weeks ago (because that's how far behind I am!), the lesson was on...FLEXIBILITY!  I think Someone is trying to tell me something. My favorite lesson was "Day 5" of the study, entitled, "Follow God's Plans".  The lesson begins with the readings of Acts 10:9-48 and…
