Improving my love of life…. through loving God, self and others
I work from home, so lunch is usually for one and needs to be quick. Margarita pizza is my favorite kind, so I fix one of these pretty often for myself. Sometimes we'll have it for dinner if no one is terribly hungry, or we'll use this as a flatbread with pasta. Mini Margarita Flatbread... Continue Reading →
Recently my guy was telling me about an interaction with a colleague where the other person was incredibly rude, swearing at him, making accusations and issuing ultimatums. The guy is known as a hothead throughout the organization, but this was beyond his normal antics. I found myself getting agitated as he described the discussion that... Continue Reading →
When you are in an argument with your spouse, do you tend to move towards or away from your significant other? I was always the one ready to fight, and used my readiness as an advantage over my guy, who needed time to take stock. Given time, he could think things through and get down... Continue Reading →

The day I met Heidi was the same day that I learned about how her life is different than most, because she is genuine and open. Honestly I didn't know how... Continue Reading →
In the early years of our marriage I had the ability to run a gamut of emotions in the first hour of the day; my guy never knew what to expect because I could show signs of bitterness and frustration and enthusiasm and charm without thinking about it. I believed it was my right to do this,... Continue Reading →
I was running one day last week, more like fast walking if compared to my kids who run every stinking day, and using an app on my phone that maps the route, distance and time. My favorite feature about this app is that each time you tick a mile, a female voice announces your progress... Continue Reading →
I'm Done! It's a statement used more and more often these days when relaying a story that involves frustration or anger, indicating that a person is ready to walk away. It seems like it started out as a way to explain how someone broke up with their gym membership or cellphone company, but now it... Continue Reading →
