    How to Stay on Track and Progress

    April 12, 2023 / No Comments

    Have you heard of Pearson’s Law? It states that, “When performance is measured, performance improves. When performance is measured and reported back, the rate of improvement accelerates.” If you have children or are around any frequently you probably have observed that, while they’re growing up right before your eyes, you don’t really notice the little changes in height, weight and other nearly imperceptible changes that happen slowly yet continuously throughout youth. The law of familiarity at play. However, those who aren’t regulars in your child’s life such as distant relatives, community members and those we only see on occasion seem to be blown away at the rapid changes they perceive…

    The drive behind all human behavior.  Seems a little presumptuous to assume all humans can be lumped into a box with this one, but once broken down you’ll see how it all can be linked back to just two major forces.  Two forces that have the power to really make or break you.  Understanding what they are, how they deeply affect us, why they affect us and what we can do about them is going to help us leverage them to our advantage to actually give us that Motivation that we desire, stop procrastinating and start making real and lasting change in our lives. The Twins What are these so-called…

    March 29, 2023 / No Comments

    Multitasking.  Ah, how I used to brag about my ability to do so.  In my mind, it was a “mom thing” or, at the very least, a “woman thing”.  I felt pridefully superior to my husband and pretty much everyone else in our home because I “could balance” so many plates.  I was the image of Efficiency.  But once I realized that – not only was my balancing act a sham (we sure had a lot of broken plates over the years) – but also that I was completely drained of energy at the end of every day, I began to think my husband was right. You see, he would…

    Jonah | The Right Man for the Job

    July 29, 2020 / No Comments

    For the past 3 weeks in church, we’ve been talking about Jonah, and if you’ve ever been within 200 yards of a bible teaching church (or within 1,000 yards of a rowdy group of VBS kids) you know the story.  God wants Jonah to go to Nineveh, Jonah is afraid/against the idea so much so that he runs 3,000 miles in the OPPOSITE direction to try and escape.  Nowadays we can roll our eyes at this story, because most of us know the scripture in Psalms that reads: “Where can I go from your Spirit?  Where can I flee from your presence?  If I go up to the heavens, you…

    You may be saying at this point, “what’s up with her ridiculously long blog titles lately?”, and you’d have a valid question.  Sometimes, though, a short and sweet title won’t do.  I’m writing what comes to me, when it comes to me and as it comes to me, and this was next.  It’s actually been a few weeks in the making, so it was due time. So, what do Donald Trump, Lauren Daigle and Pastor Steven Furtick have in common? First, let’s find out what they don’t have in common Donald Trump Like it or not, he’s our 45th – and as of writing this, current – president.  As a…

    Overcoming Unhealthy Mentalities

    January 16, 2020 / No Comments

    Paradigm Change Over the past few years, I’ve come to the conclusion (slowly) that when it comes to my diet choices I change my mind like my 7 year old daughter changes outfits. I can be swayed as easily as a boat in a hurricane from a simple Netflix documentary, a convincing Pinterest graphic or the latest diet fad synopsis from a friend. All of this, in an effort to seek health, has left me feeling anything but healthy. This quest has filled my mind with opposing thoughts threatening sure disaster “if I eat…” or “if I don’t do…” – it’s madness I tell you, madness! I certainly fit the…

    Seasons change.  That’s something we can all agree on.  Seasons of the year, plainly seen by all in the changing trees, sunrise and set, and the weather around us…  But also, and more importantly, seasons of life.  Seasons of life, some linger like an unforgiving winter with no end in sight, while others fly by like a leaf caught up in the swift wind tunnels of early spring.  Can anyone relate? I think we all experience this, which isn’t a shocker – for the bible tells us so. When we were children we coveted nothing higher than simply growing up.  We anticipated adulthood like it was some sort of medal…

    How to Survive on One Income?

    May 27, 2018 / No Comments

    The economy isn’t what it used to be, friends.  20 some years ago it was completely acceptable and attainable for families to get by in a one income household.  Nowadays, we see moms dropping off their newborns to daycare, relatives homes, leaving them with dad who just got off third shift work himself, and hustling off to a 9-5 (or more) job.  I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with moms working, heck – I say more power to ya if you can juggle it all! – but… lots of moms don’t have a choice.  There are some families who want mom to stay at home and raise the kids, but…

     I am switching this up a bit from 10 things you would tell your 16 year old self if you could to just writing a letter to my 16 year old self.  Reason being, I don’t know if I can genuinely come up with 10 things.  Heck, there might be more or there might be less, I won’t know until I start.  I think that a letter format would be much easier and more heartfelt anyhow, so feel free to improvise too if you are following along with your very own blog challenge.  This is about having fun, we’re not being graded for following directions =)         Dear 16 year old…

    Stay at Home Mom Guilt

    August 27, 2013 / No Comments

    When most of us think of mom’s suffering from feelings of guilt, we imagine the modern day working mom.  The 9-5 mom who wakes up before the sun, rushing around to press her suit, make a (time-permitting) wholesome breakfast for her family, and dropping off her precious bundle of joy at daycare before sitting in bumper to bumper traffic heading to a cookie-cutter job position where she will count down the seconds until she can hear that little giggle and wipe those sticky fingers again.  What we don’t usually imagine is the mom who is blessed to be home with her babies, all day, every day, rain or shine, in…

I’ve been thinking about coffee again, it’s be I’ve been thinking about coffee again, it’s been smelling good to me (I hated the smell for awhile) and I was trying to remember how it tasted, so I decided this morning to make a small cup.  It was pretty yummy, although not *as* good as I remember. 

I’ll decide on a morning by morning basis if I want to have a cup or not.  I really have been enjoying my teas lately. 

It’s important to not tilt to the extreme in anything.  I find when I say things like “I can’t have that” I feel restricted, and even flipping it to “I don’t want to have that” feels like a lie - I truly *didnt* want it for over a month, but then I did, so 🤷🏻‍♀️

I use local raw honey and grass fed cream in my coffee, and it’s organic.  So it’s not bad for me in moderation, which is pretty much how I’ve always enjoyed it (except during my pregnancy with Gianna, I would drink a pot a day while waitressing at Cracker Barrel - it didn’t seem to effect her, lol). 

All this to say, don’t be so hard on yourself mama!  I’m pretty much back down to zero sugar (in cooking, baking, etc) and only have the occasional “treat” so I’m pretty proud of myself as far as that goes.  If I want a cup of coffee, I’ll have it 🥰 

Oh as far as results of giving it up for about 6ish weeks…. I didn’t notice much of a difference in energy levels. I thought once it was “out of my system” I’d get some type of energy boost, but I think being pregnant just has me tired.  Maybe I’m just too hard on myself.
