Wow. It has been a very long time since I have posted. But, I have a really good reason. The best reason, in fact. A new hobby reason, you could say. I took the time off to try my biggest new hobby yet. I spent the last year and a half getting pregnant and becoming …

9/11 It Seems We Have Forgotten
It has been 19 years since the day we said we would never forget, but I can't help but feel there are a lot of things we have forgotten since that day. Every year on the anniversary of that day, there are certain things you can count on. You can count on posts on every …
BEE-utiful
Summer fun in the sun has been in short supply this year thanks to the COVID pandemic. I'm not complaining- I would gladly stay inside my house for the rest of the year if it means my grandmother, my neighbors and their grandmothers are all safe, but it is hard not to feel cooped up. …
Fired Up!
Back in 2016, my girlfriends and I went to a paint your own pottery studio for a "Girls Weekend" activity. It was a blast and I have been wanting to go back ever since. I've asked my husband to go with me a few times. To be honest, he is normally the kind of man …

It's been just about a month since everything stopped being normal. Everything just stopped. No more restaurants. No more movies. No more getting together with friends. No gym. No work (for many).

So, I did it.
In my last post, I rambled on for a while about a decision I was thinking about making. I had some positive reactions from some of you readers, which I really appreciated. I also talked it over with some of my friends, who all were pretty supportive of the idea too. So, I did it! …
Should I Take my Own Advice?
So, I am considering taking on a new opportunity. As far as I can see, there are very few draw backs to it, but I still find myself a little nervous to try. We've all seen them, the Thirty-One, Pampered Chef, Advocare, etc sellers all over our Facebooks and related social medias. And up until …
Blank Slate or A Work of Art?
One of the commonly used therapy questions taught to all beginning social work students is this: "If you had a magic wand, what would this situation look like? What would you want to happen?" After all, in order to get to the root of the problem with your client, you have to have your client …
