Motion is Lotion

Late in the fall of 2017, my husband began having pain in his neck and right arm.   He described it as having a constant charley horse down his arm. When the pain wasn’t getting better and it started going across his chest, there was no doubt that he needed to be seen.   When he didn’t […]

Reach for the Son

As you most likely know, it was important for me to take a little break from social media.   It was important for me because I was getting caught up in conversations that were only adding fuel to dividing people that I love and respect. I needed time away to pray about how to move forward, […]

Break from Social Media

When social media was first introduced, it gave me joy to catch up with family and friends, celebrate with others as birthdays, anniversaries, and joyous occasions were shared, watch small businesses thrive, and most importantly, pray with others when prayer was asked for. Sadly and most importantly throughout the last several years, it has become […]

Focus on the Joy

The Worst Storms

At the end of each year, goals are written for both personal and professional. When 2020 started, things were great.   January and February were by far the busiest they had ever been in ten years of being in business. I also made a committment to myself to exercise at least three times a week and […]

Work Schedule – It’s the Little Things

Questions came up about my post regarding working from home.   That post talked about how each of us have to find ways to work from home while at the same time, finding a balance in making sure family is taken care of and we are taking time to care for ourselves. The schedule that was […]

Schedule for your Health – Your Work Routine

Working from home can have it’s advantages, but it also comes with interruptions – interruptions from a dog that needs to go out, a neighbor across the street blasting music or doing yardwork that is so noisy you can’t hear yourself talk, phone calls that aren’t work related, or a loved one needing something from […]
