Making Time For Me….This Time

This past week was full of things that I made time for.  There were a lot that were for me though and it felt fantastic. I was back in the gym just like I was supposed to be this week, which felt terrific. I cross-trained like a crazy person.  I got 3 yards of pea

Making Time For Myself

I don’t remember the last time that I posted on a Monday morning!!  So, I guess right there is one way that I have already managed to make time for me today 🙂 My husband has said to me numerous times in our marriage “you don’t do these things for us, you do them for

I’ve been Making Time For Me

I can’t believe how long it has been since I have written on here.  I’ve missed it and I’ve missed you. Sorry that I have been MIA, I mean, maybe you haven’t even noticed.  Moving sure does take a lot out of girl.  Longer commutes in the morning because the kids are still in the

Thankful Thursday: Long Time

Transformation Tuesday: Week 12

So, it has been awhile since I have written on a Tuesday.  Things have been busy and I have been off my game!!! I have finally got my butt back into gear after moving and so today seemed like the right day to post. Last week I did all the paperwork that I needed to

Thankful Thursday 3/16

I am going to focus on one thing for Thankful Thursday and that is my dinner last night. Last night my son James had a fundraiser for his class camping trip.  The fundraiser was at a restaurant and the restaurant was going to be donating a portion of the bill to the school. Well, the

Making Time For Me 3/13

OOOOOOH, it has been a GREAT 10 days. Sorry for not posting, the only posts I had were my scheduled Teenage Spotlights on Saturday, other than that I have been taking a break. For those of you who don’t know, my husband and I closed on our first home Thursday, March 2nd.  We have been
