February 25th, 2013 When I think of vacations immediately thoughts of suitcases and planes appear in my mind. Today I experienced a different type of vacation. The last ten days have been out of the norm for me due to company, storms, and travel. I arrived home from NY this afternoon and my wires were crossed and my . . . → Read More: Vacation
February 21st, 2013 Trying anything new is always trying. I'm deep into my illustrating project and I'm visiting places I've been before. The whole progression was a learning curve. First I designed my characters. Then I did a storyboard of each page. Those parts went fairly well. Next I had to find out the specifications and format I . . . → Read More: Trying IS Trying

Down In The Valley
My breath was knocked out of me at Jean Do's plight because I absolutely cannot imagine my brain being alive and not being able to do what I'm doing now – communicating my thoughts and words to you. But he wrote a whole book AFTER this happened to . . . → Read More: What’s My Hurry?
February 18th, 2013 This weekend I spent a lot of time cuddled up reading, eating and drinking – not always the best of stuff either. Today I couldn’t wait to get to fit club. I had a great workout, but then spent the rest of the day fighting off that need to go to yoga because I had . . . → Read More: I Just Couldn’t Help It
February 12th, 2013 It felt so great this morning to have everything back to normal – power on, cleanup done. My husband left for NY and I grabbed my yoga gear and….snap…the power went off again. No biggie. I'll just go to fit club and it'll probably be back on when I get home. I switched gear and . . . → Read More: Tools

(Goto Kokofitclub.com and/or the related post below to see this phenomenal fitness program). You can imagine how excited I was to go yesterday to take . . . → Read More: This Requires Focus
February 1st, 2013 I have been practicing Bikram yoga for two and a half years now. People often ask me why Bikram, as opposed to other types of yoga. I always say I do Bikram for medicinal reasons. The medicinal reasons are too many to go into during most of these conversations, but I always wish I could . . . → Read More: Why I Do What I Do
January 29th, 2013 Yes. A day of studying trees. Today while working on my illustrating project it became apparent, as my focus shifted from my main characters to the backgrounds, there are a lot of trees involved. I needed to explore tree parts and shadows. I also think each picture is going be quite small, so I needed . . . → Read More: Studying Trees
January 25th, 2013 How familiar is that phrase? For the last two weeks I've had more "I don't feel like it" moments than is normal for me. When it came time to go to yoga or fit club, to write, draw, go to a meeting, etc. I had two choices. One, I could just get up and push . . . → Read More: I Just Don’t Feel Like It
January 24th, 2013 What? Live with an unsolved problem? Really Lord? There's peace in that?
That was my reaction to my morning reading this morning. I'm taking a second trip through Melody Beattie's More The Language of Letting Go. This morning that concept was just flung across the page, striking me, and even enraging me a little. Isn't . . . → Read More: What? LIVE With An Unsolved Problem?
