The universe reaches out to us in surprising ways. It sends us messages telling us positive things like "You are stronger than you think" and "God doesn't make mistakes." Then sometimes like today, it says get over yourself. Message received universe. I will get through my current dilemmas and things will get better. Thank you for all of …

A Summer without School
A kids dream. This teacher's nightmare. No school = no pay. The county I work for doesn't offer year round pay. They have a deferred pay system where you can elect to have a percentage of every check differed until the end of the school year. A smart thing to do, if you can afford …
A Hard Knock Life or Not
My animals have all flatten themselves on the floors of the house as if to say that they give up. It wasn't an especially trying day for the terminally fuzzy day. Everyone made it up this morning and out the door. The morning walk even had time for a spot of tea.Then I came home …

No Poem Today

This weekend, I was tremendously excited because I had arranged to see one of my favorite people on this earth. Friday, as the title suggests, plans changed. Saturday wasn't meant to be. Which as it turns out was a blessing because I was sick all day. Not horribly so, just enough to make the day …
My New Challenge
Thirty days without soda and so far I haven't retreated to the comforts of carbonation. I feel better and today, my jeans glided on instead of being pulled and tugged while I contort myself into them. I have been trying to think of what to work on for my next thirty day challenge. I want …
Late Homework
Revised: 4-2-13 - A ton of ideas have been flowing through my brain, none have made it to the surface. Life recently has decided to teach me a lesson about listening to my gut. My little voice. I have done really well over the years when I have listened to it. When I don't. I …
