A fire alarm went off, and I am sitting outside on a curb at the Dallas Love Airport on my way to Orlando for work. We had to evacuate the building. Luckily, it is a beautifully pleasant sunny day. I had started this thought for you inside, but I might as well take advantage of […]

I recently saw a quote, and I had to pause. It said, “You cannot think your way out of depression; you need to move your way out.” I thought Wow- this is so true. Sitting around “thinking” more by yourself is NOT the answer. During the winter months, many of us find ourselves locked up […]

Do you ever feel like you are always waiting? Waiting for the promotion, waiting until you can make “this” much money. Waiting on love. Waiting for your husband. Waiting for the woman of your dreams.

A “cold” front blew in, after weeks of 90-100 degrees with extreme humidity, we finally got some relief. We have experienced 15 degrees cooler for a good 5 days. So, it was time to go outside to enjoy it! I took a bestie kayaking. We took in all the nature, pointing out birds, turtles, and […]
