I feel sorry for my friends. If “we age not by years, but by stories” over the weekend, I aged. * * * During the yoga teacher training program we had some keynote speakers. Michelle went over cueing and being a “bad” student so our cueing could be on point. I. Could. NOT. Stop. Laughing. […]
Finding Zen
Words Have Power
I’m reminded of my childhood and some of the best advice to this day came from Disney movies. “Never look back darling, it distracts from the now.” Edna Mode – The Incredibles “Sometimes, the right path is not the easiest one.” Grandmother Willow – Pocahontas The one that sticks out and inspires this post is: […]
Change – not coins
One post a month just won’t do. I promise I’ll get better. My intentions are there but time swiftly moves at a pace I can not catch. Until now. I consider myself a kind, giving and thoughtful person. More often than not “thoughtful” becomes “over-thinking”. Although I’m a planner, my husband is quick to point […]

See through Pants
Yoga. The beautiful, calming practice of being still left me anxious as FUCK last Saturday. Ironic, right? I mean, how can something so soothing cause stress? That my friend, is all in the pants you wear. It was early on a Saturday. My men were house sitting which means I got a good night sleep […]

Being Authentic
My resolution for the new year was Freedom. Mainly in the financial department. Ironically working as a Financial Representative did not help us and we ended up getting into some financial trouble. It’s difficult to get ahead when you end up behind with the IRS. THIS year, fingers crossed, will be different. As the first month […]
Bobby Vee – Remembered
As fate would have it, I’ve always been in the right place at the right time. The “right time” for this post happened to be in the late nineties and I was bar tending at night and going to school during the day. I was born a music lover. Little did I know there was […]
Beautiful Women
When I first started dating my now husband, he told me of this crush he had. She is his friends little sister, she’s nice and pretty. Eventually I would meet her and realize that he under exaggerated her by a LOT. She met up with us after running late to a wedding we were attending. She is […]
Girls weekend or bust
There has been a major influx of chick flicks on our TV as of late. Around the fifth one this week I started to wonder why there was a sudden rise in this genre. Then it hit me… I went to a girl’s weekend. This particular girls weekend caused a heartache that can ONLY be […]

Slowing down
It seems most people value success on how busy they are. The PTA leader is also the soccer coach, the swim team chauffeur, the blue ribbon bake sale winner, the mother of the year, running for city council and has an impeccable kept house, not to mention well-mannered children. When did over committing become the […]
Vibrate Higher
The nicest woman lives across the street from the bar I work at. She has one of those old names that her kids probably thanked God they didn’t get but their kids will probably bring it back. Old names get trendy like that. You don’t want to get stuck with it, but you’ll probably end up […]
