  • 2017-09-01 September Strategy

    I am rolling into month #3 of not being employed. I’ve checked the numbers and I’m still good with regards to the financial aspect of this little experiment. I took a couple months to spend some extra special quality time with the kids and to work on “me” with the intent of not thinking or…

  • 2017-09-01 The Daily Dose is Doing Me Wrong

    I woke up at about 7 with a nasty crimp in my neck and am quick to take some over the counter (OTC) pain meds. At this point, I am finally getting around to reading that book I started in January about health and wellness and diet and and how the mind and body are…

  • 2017-08-29 Don’t Question It, Just Enjoy

    I’m really trying to make sense of the fact that I was in a better mood today. I should just enjoy it, but my brain is treating this like another puzzle to be solved. Why brain. Why? All last week I was in a funky mood and if you are following along and read yesterday,…

  • 2017-08-25 Celebrating Successes

    This one has been stewing for a while. I put it in the crock pot in February and I think it’s about ready.

  • 2017-08-24 You Mediate Your Way, I’ll Mediate Mine

    Today I tried to sleep more and of course my body and my mind would not have any of that. I gave up trying quickly because I knew it was a lost cause almost as soon as the lights were out and my white noise machine was on. Instead I turned to the next best…

  • 2017-08-22 Maslow and Climbing the Hierarchy

    I have this blog post I started earlier today at the gym. It’s all super positive and inspired by my goals and meeting goals and celebrating successes. I never finished that post because my time at the gym ended and I needed to finish it at home and then I got to working on other…

  • 2017-08-21 What I Would Do for Totality.. Apparently

    Be up over 36 hours straight. Suffer through a migraine. Suffer through a terrible hotel stay. Have the worst “free” hotel breakfast ever. Hours of waiting (this part wasn’t so bad before the eclipse because we were with friends). Stupid paper glasses (ok, now I’m just being a whiny bitch). Lack of proper nutrition (my…

  • 2017-08-19 Satisfying Saturday

    I could talk about the health tests I took yesterday. That was pretty cool, and I want to talk about it but now does not feel like the time. I just got back from an evening bike ride which started at my house and led me into and past downtown Papillion and then west on…
