Week in Review: Week of January 11, 2015

I don't know about you, but my week went by REALLY fast!  Thankfully I was able to get just about everything done that I needed to do.  Unfortunately, we had a few things throw a wrench in my plans, as is life.  But we made it through another week, and I'll just try again next week.  I'm still not used to having extra time yet.  It just seems like things keep getting in the way; however I was excited to have an extra day at the gym this week.  Woohoo!  Well, we'll see how this week progresses.  Here's how I…

Uncle Tom’s List

Today I'm feeling a bit down.  Not on the outside of course, but there's just a damper on my heart that's bringing me down.  It's just that there was an accident this weekend, which killed a friend of my stepdaughters.  She was in high school.  While we weren't close to her family, as a mom, you just can't help but to feel sad.  For her family.  For the situation.  For the loss of potential.  For the loss of a vibrant life.  And I sit here wishing I could help but not knowing how.  There just aren't words. This all just…

Faith {One Word}

As you may remember, my "one word" for last year was "intentional." One word is a trend that began in 2009 as an alternative to new year's resolutions and a focus on a one-word theme for your year.  "One word you can focus on every day, all year long… One word that sums up who you want to be or how you want to live...It will become the compass that directs your decisions and guides your steps." This year, my word is "faith." At the end of the month, our family will be experiencing some changes, as my husband has felt…

Here We Go Again (Goals 2015)

Well happy new year!  I hope everyone brought in the new year with a bang and that you're looking forward to a fresh, new start in 2015. I've always been one to make resolutions, so it comes without saying that I would make some this year; however, I do hate calling them resolutions.  Even though a resolution is just a "resolve" to do something, there is a common problem with New Year's Resolutions, and that's that most of them are not kept.  If I call them goals and treat them as such, I feel I will have a much better…
