The other day, I read a quote by Mary Kay Ash, which said, "Aerodynamic engineers studied the bumblebee and decided that it simply should NOT be able to fly! It's wings are too weak and its body too heavy for flight. Everything seems to tell the bumblebee, you'll never get off the ground, but I like … Continue reading Bumblebee
Today is the 1st Day of September. When I was growing up, it meant that going back to school was right after the Labor Day weekend. Now, kids go back to school around mid-August. It also means we are 2/3 of the way through the year. We are in our 4th quarter. We have made … Continue reading Ahhh – Meal Prepping and September

My brain is at a complete stand still for writing lately. No new inspirations... it's like my brain has shut down. It was a stressful month in April though. Lots of stuff happened - nothing major like somebody died or anything - just stressful stuff. A relationship of 3 years ended - out of the … Continue reading Challenges and New Vision
...And some days - even months - you repeat that question over and over again. Why does life seem so heavy? When did people get so rude? Can I just go back to being a kid again - when life seemed so much simpler. Why was I in a hurry to grow up? This month … Continue reading Do I Have to Adult Today?
At first I was offended when my trainer said to fire myself. "Fire myself?," I thought, "How rude, how pretentious, how condescending... Why would I want to do that? What does that even mean? Fire myself?" I had been a bit snippy and not wanting to put full effort into my work out. And maybe, … Continue reading I Fired Myself Today (but not in a bad way)
