#10Thankful – Are We There Yet?
I am so ready for this school year to be over. I kind of thought when I left the classroom that I wouldn’t feel so stressed about this time of year. I figured without final exams, end-of-the-year textbook collections, and the rest of the things teachers have to do in June, I’d have no worries. I was wrong. Know…

TToT – Long Weekends
Here we are at the weekend again and, as is usual of late, it’s nearly over before I get my TToT in. It’s a fine thing, I suppose, because the only reason for my tardiness is that we’re out living, doing, and enjoying this very long weekend – five days for us. That’s not even…

#10Thankful – Fragmented
Fragmented. That’s the best word I can come up with to describe my week. It’s been one long stretch of a whole lot of jumbled pieces and small bits of time, none of which have added up to much of anything. But of course, if I sit long enough and think about it, I know…

#10Thankful – Things of Significance
I sense that great things are about to happen. No, really. I wish I could explain why, but I can’t. I just know that things are somehow falling into place as they should. I’m late again this week – very late – but that’s OK because once again we have been out living. I can’t…

Listen to Your Mother 2016: A Reflection
Everyone has a story to tell. Yet very often we keep those stories to ourselves, unready or unwilling to share them with the world. One of my favorite movies is Steel Magnolias – for so many reasons. Early in the film Truvy (played by Dolly Parton) tries to find out more about her new employee, Annelle (Daryl Hannah). “Well…tell…

#10Thankful – The Show is Over
Is it wrong that I’m in my pajamas at 8:00 PM? Today has been an exciting and tiring day and honestly? I really kind of want to go to bed. Like now. But first, I need to slip in a few items of thankfulness… First, I am so grateful to have been part of the…

TToT – On the Mend
I was really prepared this week. I had my TToT drafted and pretty much ready to go on Friday morning already. FRIDAY MORNING, people! That never happens. I said to myself, “Self, you can post this quick later tonight. You need to grab your keys and get your butt out of here.” And then…stuff started…

TToT – By the Numbers, Sort Of
Well, it’s been quite a while, hasn’t it? I took an intentional week off for Holy Week and Easter and then all hell broke loose. It all started with some beautiful spring blooming…and pollen. Allergy season entered our lives in full force. So here we are, now three weeks, three head colds, one sinus…

TToT – A Full Spectrum of Thankfulness
I’ve had a colorful week. A full spectrum of things for which I am thankful. I’d love to show and tell you that I snagged a photo of every hue and every experience. But I did not. I was too busy soaking in the moments, living the moments. And truly, the color thing didn’t occur…

Sometimes I Feel Like Wonder Woman
Sometimes I feel like Wonder Woman. I feel like Wonder Woman because I do battle every day. You see, I have ADHD. I’ve had it all my life, even though I didn’t know it until I was well into adulthood. As it turns out, my daughter also has ADHD. And my husband. And I’m pretty sure at least…
