Solstice happiness.

From the title you probably think I have lost my mind.  With the winter solstice happening yesterday that means the daylight hours get longer now until June 21.  If you’re like me and run on what seems to be solar power then you know how hard it is to be productive when it gets darkContinue reading “Solstice happiness.”

Sometimes it’s the little things.

Sometimes it’s the little things that make or break you.  It’s your husband getting up with you before 5 am because you have a craft fair to set up for.  It’s one of you crafters that makes me feel so special by creating and then mailing it.  I’ve gotten some amazing happy mail this week.Continue reading “Sometimes it’s the little things.”

Giving back sometimes needs to be for you.

Do you ever feel that you give and give and give and it never seems to come back?  It could be that our outlook is not focused on what is coming back or it could be that you need to fill up your tank.  You need to take care of yourself. In this busy timeContinue reading “Giving back sometimes needs to be for you.”

Thinking and doing…

Today is the day we focus on giving back or paying it forward.  I want you to think about something…what is the difference between thinking and doing?  One is internal and the other is external.  One involves something that happens passively and the other requires action.  I want to encourage you today to act onContinue reading “Thinking and doing…”

Giving back…

Today is the day that we focus on giving back or paying it forward.  If you are out shopping on this black Friday then maybe you tuck your elbows instead of using them. 😉  Maybe you sit down and mail all of those cards you’ve been meaning to send.  Maybe you just can’t shake someoneContinue reading “Giving back…”

Laughter is a way to give back.

Do you know someone going through a rough patch?  They might just need a laugh.  Have you been grumpy?  Find someone that can help you giggle. Yesterday at Card Class we evidentally all needed to laugh.  We laughed so much that the store owner next door came to see what was the matter.  We weren’tContinue reading “Laughter is a way to give back.”

Remember to send a card today.

Today is the day to give back.  This is the focus of today.  It’s not that it does not happen on other days but I find if you are not intentional then things may not happen.  So send that card TODAY! Anyone that posts a photo of a card being mailed (remember to cover theContinue reading “Remember to send a card today.”

Friendship Friday and its importance.

Do you ever wonder if you are making a difference?  Giving back is so important for your soul as well as the one receiving.  Last night I was invited to a Rotary Club meeting and I thought that these people get it.  Giving back to make impact.  I am not telling you to join aContinue reading “Friendship Friday and its importance.”

The twinkle in your eye.

I am reminded that it is often the little things that make or break you.  Last night was a great reminder of this.  I was at one of the local elementary schools for their Trunk or Treat.  As sugary kids are running around like crazy zombies I had one child that approached my booth.  HeContinue reading “The twinkle in your eye.”

And we are back to Friday again.

I can’t believe how quickly this week has gone.  Quite a bit has happened this week which is probably why time is flying.  Bought a vehicle, dog went to the vet, travel plans changed for OnStage, created over 20 cards, coach calls, and more.  Yes, this is just this week.  Actually it’s been only inContinue reading “And we are back to Friday again.”
