What have you been working on? Short term …I am a shop manager for an independent repair facility. We are working on a ’69 Jeep, ’83 Monte Carlo and ’98 Lincoln. Long term …thanks to encouragement from all of you, I have started the first steps for the children’s book I want to write . Continue reading “Short term vs. long term”

What’s something most people don’t know about you? Some days I really really really hate being so tall.  Many times people remark “oh I wish I could be tall or it must be nice being that tall ” Sometimes it really isn’t. You don’t get left alone in the grocery store because customers always wantContinue reading “Some days I really really….”

Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive? I have no idea what this lazy day is that thou speakest.  Even if I am off from my job, I am working to grow my home-based business, cleaning, helping my husband or kids with projects, spoiling pets.  The only hobby I would put under theContinue reading “Help me out here… what’s a lazy day 🤣”

My dad left her when I was just 7 years old never to be seen again. She had three young daughters, no job, no friends. The only friends she hadContinue reading “Hands Down.   My Mom”

What principles define how you live? Integrity – doing the right thing even when no one is looking Kindness – treat everyone with respect and kindness. You don’t know the battles they are fighting or the road they are walking Commitment – your word matters. When you give it, keep it.

What have you been putting off doing? Why? Two things:  getting started on writing a children’s book that I have wanted to do. I just need to suck it up, grab the confidence and GO! The second is to forgive some past grievances and let go of the grudges and bitterness. But man it isContinue reading “Writing and forgiving”

When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)? In a shocking revelation for those who know of my coffee addiction, the time I felt grown up was when I got to have my first cup of coffee.  My grandfather always told me it would stunt my growth. Ha ha.Continue reading “This will surprise my readers (NOT) 🤣”

If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to? The phrase “it’s for the kids” tends to be an overused cliche. But if I had a million dollars, it would be split up to fund cancer research and to treat and cure kids’ cancer and support families who areContinue reading “It’s for the kids…not a cliche”
