Loving the hard to love….it is REALLY hard for me.

A secret about ME.
So……..I am the biggest control freak ever. Like ever. I know, it’s embarrassing to admit but in my head I still think I am the controller of all the things. Here’s one of the biggest confessions ever…promise you won’t come at me? So, I pack my husband’s suitcase for every single trip…whether I am going…
You Are Not the Only One With a Mess
November 17th, 2011: a big day for our family. I remember walking into Bank of America and paying off the note to our last loan. We did it. 52k in consumer debt, gone. We did something that was not too popular, supported at the time and definitely weird to some. It was a day we…

Livin’ Like I Am 8 Years Old…
You know that song “Live like you are dying”…Tim McGraw…duh. Well, insert “Live Like You Are 8 years Old” instead. Did I paint the picture, is the song stuck in your head now?? YES. Job accomplished.

Leaving the Race of Perfection for the Journey to Joy
It wasn’t my fastest and it wasn’t my slowest…and I promise this isn’t one of those posts that says “Look at me…tell me how good I am or how proud you are of me or that I am a rockstar!” Not gonna lie, I do love the LOVE, the accolades and the encouragement (I am…
