On to plan B
I was pooped by the time my head hit the pillow last night. After deciding to sell my business 3 weeks ago, a turn of events pushed me to close my business at the end of the month. To my surprise, no tears were shed; I actually felt relieved I knew which direction I...
Going with the flow
Please Lord, do not let me forget the peace and joy that is filling me up right now. It's been 48 hours since I lovingly released my shop and starting taking steps to close this amazing chapter in my life and taking big, bold, brave steps to go with the flow....

Hatching some creativity and color
Over 30 years ago I discovered that I am warm, more specifically an Autumn. Now many people may not care and that's probably because they are cool; 90-95% of the population is cool. So I can either be the odd man out, or a precious gem. (I know you're thinking gem!) I...
