April 10th, 2013 I just got home from my Cape Cod Children’s Writers critique group. Since I’m not writing right now because I’m illustrating, I didn’t bring a piece to share. I brought some of my artwork for the book I’m working on, shared that and sat back to listen carefully to the readings of the night.

April 9th, 2013 In regard to last night’s beautiful Bikram disaster (yesterday’s post), I have to say I found the beauty of that disastrous class when I woke up this morning. I woke up in a great frame of mind with lots of energy. It was fit club day and I couldn’t wait to get there.

April 8th, 2013 I have a cool pink T-shirt that says “Beautiful Disaster” on it. Every time I wear it I always think how could a disaster be beautiful? Today I found out.
You know how it is with exercise – maybe today, maybe tomorrow, consistency wains. For the last two and half years I have knocked . . . → Read More: 5 Days & A Beautiful Disaster

When I first read this quote my mind flitted to the word “replenish”. What do I need to replenish everyday? I need to replenish my mind, my body and my spirit. My mind needs the stimulation of new ideas. . . . → Read More: The Lights Of Our Days
April 6th, 2013 Today’s message from the universe was one of simplicity. My NY daughter and I rarely get to spend a day together here in NY. Today she had to shop for a complete outfit to wear to a wedding next weekend and she asked me to go along. Finding a dress and shoes and jewelry was . . . → Read More: A Rare Day
April 5th, 2013 Eleven years ago I fell in love with a car. I’ll never forget that day. I had the first Honda CRV that came out and I brought it down for a service. It was the only SUV I ever had. I always drove Accords. I hated that “truck”, as I called it. That day, in . . . → Read More: More & More & More Letting Go
April 4th, 2013 Awhile back I wrote about the seven ways to wrestle in prayer. The first one was to seek wisdom from God. The second one was to rejoice in God’s time and seasons. That’s where I continued to get stuck. Rejoicing in God’s time and seasons means, to me, hands off – don’t worry about it. . . . → Read More: Time & Seasons
March 30th, 2013 Today the Cape Cod Children’s Writers held one of our writing retreats where new writers bring their tender, new-born work to be critiqued. I love working with writers who sit in the same seat I sat in two years ago – scared, holding the very first thing I’ve ever written. I remember being so nervous . . . → Read More: What’s Your Story?
March 29th, 2013 The other day I noticed how much I was limiting myself in the gym over the years by not ever upping the weights because I honestly didn’t think I could press more. Today, doing lateral chest pulls, it once again showed how I limited myself. I’m doing 50 pounds now, and for ten years I . . . → Read More: Stats!
March 27th, 2013 Limits have crossed my radar twice in two days. That’s usually my indicator that the universe is communicating something when it appears in many unrelated places.
Today I was enjoying my workout on the Koko smart trainer. I was in the middle of the chest press when my eyes caught the weight. I was . . . → Read More: Limits..or Not
