Another day…
This is another one I'm not going to post to facebook. Like yesterday I'm ending the day exhausted, stressed and sleepy. I've spent almost the whole day attempting to do great amounts of homework. Instead I've been hopelessly distracted by my children; and unfortunately not in a positive way. Since my first post about my… Continue reading Another day…
Computer Issues
I'm writing my post tonight; but I'm not linking this to facebook. Why? because it will be short, full of my frustrations and less thought out than my usual post.

Which leads to me staring at this blank screen for far to long; so in order to help myself get something written each day that is semi meaningful (as is the goal) I did… Continue reading 5 Ways to win my heart
Inspiration
Today I had one of those days that was just a good day. Part of what made it good were these two videos I got to see. I debated back and forth about writing some commentary or just linking the videos. I've decided to link the videos- 'cause honestly they say everything better than I… Continue reading Inspiration

A letter to myself- 10 years ago.
One of the things you hear in life a lot is to not compare yourself to others. I think it ties for some of the BEST advice and some of the most DIFFICULT to follow that is ever given out. In my own life I find it nearly impossible to not compare myself to others.… Continue reading A letter to myself- 10 years ago.
blah, blarg, googleblug…
That has been the kind of day it has been; I woke up to early and was sick to my stomach then had to go to school. I'm super excited for all of my classes- but was rather distracted all day by my upset stomach. Basically that leaves me tired and without much to say… Continue reading blah, blarg, googleblug…
