It's amazing how quickly a year can pass. 2017 seemed to go by in a blink, and the realization that a new year is only weeks away reminds me of how much (or little) can be accomplished as life whizzes by. 2017 was a wonderful year, and it unfolded in ways I never would've been able to predict just a year ago. While most of those detours were wonderful surprises, I did end up losing my way a bit in other areas. I want to be sure that doesn't happen again in 2018 so I'm being intentional about ...Continue Reading

To be honest, keeping such a ...Continue Reading

I love blogging, but I'm currently working on a lot of things behind the scenes (including a complete rebranding and redesign of the blog!) so I've been in a weird limbo state. I reached a point where I'd been away for so long that I didn't know what to say. It kind of felt like trying to reconnect with an old best ...Continue Reading
