Enduring Past National Quiter’s Day
I have a confession to make: I have a habit of burning out. It’s not always super noticeable because I’ve known this about myself long enough that I’m really good at front-loading work and tasks. Continue reading
A Lesson Learned at Costco
I want to share a lesson I learned recently. I made a huge mistake last month. I went to Costco on a Saturday. No, not just a Saturday. I went to Costco on a Saturday during the holiday season… Continue reading
What I learned during my Advent break…
Hi friends! How is your new year so far? I am really excited about some of the focuses for the blog this year!

My Seven Goals for 2018 (and how I’m starting work on them this month!)

2018: Let’s Get Together…
Hello everyone! Can you believe it is almost time for a new year?! 2017 was rough in so many ways for so many people, but there was a lot of good in there too. As 2018 approaches, I’ve been brainstorming what the focus of my blog will be for the year of “E”s. This series of “announcement” posts will be short and sweet so we can all have a little extra time in the final countdown to Christmas and New Year’s… So here’s the first one: Continue reading
Final Year End Wrap up: Daughter, Family, and Delights
These final two focuses are hard to wrap up because obviously they are all subjects that are ongoing. I do, however, have a few thoughts on each of these subjects, especially since my daughter, my family, and finding delight took up most of my focus this past year. Continue reading
