Discouragement is for the birds, so let it fly the **** away.

12/02/2018 Leave a Comment

Discouraged. It’s what you feel when you’re stagnant in your career. It’s what you feel when you’re exercising five days a week, eating moderately healthy, and the scale just won’t budge. It’s what you feel when you and your spouse continue to argue over menial things, but you just can’t get and keep a hold…

Have you seen my energy? I can’t find it.

09/29/2018 Leave a Comment

Energy? Energy? Where are you? I can’t find you. I was really hoping to use these non-kid-directed four hours to be productive, but you are nowhere to be found. Where have you run off to? You are not supposed to just up and leave whenever you feel like it. I need you around all of…

Harness Your Superpowers with Dr. Robert Zeitlin

09/02/2018 Leave a Comment

Hey Guys. Allow me to let you in on a little secret — I don’t have a lot of time. Okay, that’s not really a secret and according to my husband, I b*tch, complain, and preach about it far and wide to anyone within earshot at every opportunity. Am I a martyr? I’m not trying to be,…

Today, My Children and I Wrote a Story

08/12/2018 Leave a Comment

Today, my daughter and I wrote a story. So did my son and I. Let’s start with what prompted this: Last night, my daughter said something that hurt a bit. She said that she needs more attention and that I am always saying “one second” or “in a minute”. I sat there on the floor…

Every Person Has a “Why” (This is Mine)

08/05/2018 Leave a Comment

Just kidding. Beer is not my why! In truth, it’s usually my “why not!?” But really, the title and image together intrigued you, didn’t it? A little clickbaity maybe, but that was not my whole intention. The truth is that I couldn’t find a picture of all my offspring where at least one of their…

How Acting Like Your Child Can Bring You Balance

03/29/2018 Leave a Comment

Balance – the holy-grail of peace, mindfulness, and joy that we all strive, long, pray, hope, and even grovel for, but rarely find. Us mothers, we want it, we need it, we strive for it and are on a never-ending quest to find it, and I think I just may have uncovered the key to…

What Did You Do Yesterday? Finding Balance Through Introspection

02/15/2018 Leave a Comment

Yesterday, I was a kid. I was playing soccer and running around with my siblings, driving my parents crazy. Yesterday, I was a teenager. I was trying out different hairstyles and trends and chasing around boys in my short skirt. Yesterday, I went to college. I moved to a new state and had lots of…
