So much space is given for us to share life stories, thoughts, and even our opinions on social media. Instagram has been a place of encouragement as I have read quotes and thoughtful words by like-minded writers. It has been a place where I have laughed at all the german shepherd videos. (My phone knows […]
I remember having a diary with a lock on it when I was little. Maybe you had one, too? Mine had a castle design on the front with a pink tassel to hold the key. I don’t remember what I wrote in the pages of that little girl’s diary, but I can picture myself hiding […]
Things forgotten. Missed deadlines. Last-minute changes to plans. It’s inevitable. No matter how prepared we try to be or how well we are at something, we will make mistakes. We’ll forget things and sometimes just say the wrong things. And sometimes, we can’t keep up with everything, and that’s okay. Just the other day, I […]
There is a lesson in everything, including cleaning out the closet. I did some spring cleaning, trying to minimize the stuff in my house. There’s just something about getting rid of things you don’t need. It’s like fresh air once you make some space. While cleaning the cluttered closet, I’ve reflected on some things. First, […]

How many times have you lost your car keys or glasses? While I have good intentions of putting my keys in the same place, that doesn’t always happen. Sometimes my keys get misplaced and I have to search the house for them. While I do have to search for my keys from time to time, […]
Instagram must know that I’m thinking about making changes in my kitchen. I see quite a few transformational pictures of remodeled rooms coming across my newsfeed. I must say, the before and after photos are amazing. One designer painted her kitchen cabinets gray. She shares how she knows that it’s not the trendy color that […]
I could feel the overwhelm within. It was slowing building as I went through an ordinary day of life.
