So . . . how’s your week going? Stressful? Too much to do? Frustrated with too few hours in the day? Me, too, Friend. Me. Too. So let’s all just take a minute and press pause. Or better yet, let’s say no to something. One of my favorite writers, Bob Goff*, quits something every Thursday. …
So you know when you’re just about ready to pat yourself on the back for what an amazing job you’re doing of keeping all the plates spinning?? You think to yourself, Wow, would you look at all I’m trying to do and how WELL I’m doing it? And my hair even looks good! I work …
I have a confession to make. I only attended one year of college. I started working full time when I was 18 years old and have been at it pretty much ever since with a short hiatus when our boys were babies. During which time, by the way, I worked the hardest I’ve ever worked …

Me at my first half marathon. I was a newbie once, too. I love newbies! Yes. That is a very long title. But here’s the thing: we don’t mean to, we don’t do it on purpose, but us runners (yes, I’m talking to YOU) tend to use words that we assume other people understand and …
So did you see it? The numbers just came out for WDW Marathon Weekend 2015. Here’s the link where you can find them but suffice it to say IT’S A WHOLE LOT OF MONEY and if you’re really nuts and want to go Dopey this year? Yeah, that’s gonna set you back $530. And that’s …
