Self Care is Self Love #LoveYourselfFirst

I had a bug last week, and being couch bound more or less forced me to go into my head for deep thinking. My bug could have been avoided by going to a doctor sooner, but you know, “maybe it will go away” entered my head. Hereditary conditions simply interfered and lingered. I let myself...

Vegetable Burrito Bowls #CincoDeMayo Made Simple

Friday night rolled around, I was home on Cinco de Mayo, exhausted and proud to have finished a very productive week. So, what would I make for dinner? I discovered a cauliflower head begging to be selected! Burrito bowls with cauliflower rice! A quick trip to the grocery store to pick up the ingredients I... Continue Reading →

What Is Your Path? – Life is NOT #Fake

Since the 2016 Election, we have been inundated with fake this and fake that. Why do we believe that something that has always been a “go to” source is now “fake” when someone is who holds power tells us that? Is life now based on Fear? Aren't  we better than that? Are we no longer doing... Continue Reading →

Why Wait for Tomorrow? #tomorrow always shows up #observeyourworld

A few years back, I wrote about listening to Boise again. I was hanging out in McCall a great deal, and when I moved my mindset back to Boise, I slowly but surely became reacquainted with Boise. It was as if I had just moved to town, I was taking it all in with brand... Continue Reading →

Lemon Herb Chicken Tenders

Chicken Fingers for Grown Ups! I had a package of chicken breast tenderloins, and looked for a different way to cook them last night. I did not want to sauté or fry; that seemed as if it was too much work for my end of the day “I am tired”. So, that meant baking. My... Continue Reading →

Soul Sister Friends aka A Week with My #Sister

Last week was spent with my sister, the baby of the family. That is a weird phrase to use considering we are both past the M word (menopause). We had a great time, and learned a bit about each other in the process. You see, I was 18 when I moved out and she was... Continue Reading →

Taking a Much Needed Break #SpringBreak

Taking the week off because my sister is visiting. My extra living room underneath my covered patio is cleaned up, all set up with my couch and chair, dining table in the corner. My summer goal will be to enjoy the colors of the sun setting, listen to the breezes gently swing by, music from the... Continue Reading →

Be Careful If You are Doer #BossyPants or #Leader

This past weekend I took it upon myself to put together committee descriptions for a non-profit that I volunteer for. The fact that we do not have staff makes us a working board as well as an all-volunteer organization. So, who does what? We are growing, so the time had come to begin the conversation...

It’s a Staff Appreciation @SaintAlsHealth #ThankYouSoMuch

There must be something in the water at Saint Alphonsus Medical Center in Boise, Idaho. I’m not kidding, either. Believe it or not, I had the distinct pleasure of two different staycations in a thirty-day period. Two good outcomes: I finally got to the bottom of why I have been feeling lackluster. Serious enough to... Continue Reading →

Why is Asking for Help So Darn Difficult? #AskForHelpWhenYouNeedIt

Sometimes I have to give myself a palm to forehead slap. I have to knock the sense back into place in that stubborn mind of mine. Life can be just like a tug of war in life, especially when you are a strong person like myself. I now need more than I am asking for... Continue Reading →
