Like many Americans, I look forward to watching the Summer Olympics every four years, and I\’ve spent a lot of time this week watching the swimming Olympic trials. First of all, I can\’t put into words how much I miss swimming!! Watching those races brought back some wonderful memories and a strong desire to get […]

Do you ever feel like people are annoyed by the parts of your life you’re most excited about? Life changes, job promotions, personal successes, etc? Do YOU ever find yourself being annoyed at others for that very same thing? I know I’m guilty of it. Why are we though? I asked myself that question and
As I grow older – and hopefully wiser – I\’ve realized that no matter who you are, there are going to be people out there who will try to drag you down. Whether they are jealous of you, intimidated by you, they\’re simply a terrible person, or some other unknown reason, it\’s bound to happen

Change. It\’s something that happens to everyone all the time, no matter what stage of life you are in. It\’s inevitable, it can\’t be avoided, but that doesn\’t mean it\’s always easy. Whether it\’s a small change like maybe you want to start getting up 30 minutes earlier every day or something like going from
Oofta it definitely feels like winter now! These last couple weeks have been down right chilly and it’s been a bit of an adjustment. We were so spoiled with mild temperatures and little snow through December and the first part of January, I thought we might have a nice winter! But unfortunately that’s not usually
