Finding Life beyond the struggles
Good morning everyone! How is your Monday going so far? I know that Monday isn't always the favorite day of the week, although I wouldn't say it's the hardest day of the week either. Normally I'm not a Monday person, but after the weekend we've had it's a nice change of pace. However, if you... Continue Reading →
Before we get started, let me just say I really enjoyed making today's graphic. For whatever reason it was fun to make. Okay so today I'm sharing my writing process and this mainly refers to writing books but a few of these steps could also be used on writing blog posts, too. I wouldn't say... Continue Reading →
Everybody knows the saying, Waste not, want not. (Does anyone else hear that in Anjelica Huston's voice?) Like just about everything else, this saying also applies to Christmas decorating.

Over the years, I have found ways to help support my own immune system so that I can stay healthy all season long. I'm sure you, too, want to stay healthy this... Continue Reading →
If there's one thing I'm not a big fan of it's mornings. No matter the season, I am not a morning person. When fall hits and the days shorten, it can be really difficult for me to get out of bed. The sun should be up before me, not rising at the same time! So... Continue Reading →
I believe that we can use every experience to help others. I recently had such an experience and decided I needed to share it so that other bloggers can decide for themselves if it's something they want. This experience happened because of the Reblog button. I hope this post helps bloggers everywhere, especially those who... Continue Reading →
