Change Sucks

As a people we cry out for change, especially when it involves things we don't like.  I want things to change, you want things to change, the country wants to change.  However, when it comes time for action, I cave, you cave, we all cave.  Change is a commitment and commitment is fricking HARD!  Just sitting down to write this is a little bit annoying.  There is a lot going on in my life, some hard some easy, and I know I am not alone in that place.  People all around me are moving and shifting in their lives, trying to figure out where they fit and where they don't.  I am writing this stuff down because for me it is a type of commitment.  Its harder to just give when I know others may be watching, reading, or just waiting to see what I am up to.  Mostly, I don't want anyone to think they are alone in their struggles.  Revealing my stuff might make yours a little easier to handle today. Today the w...

Blogging: Epic Fail

Yep it has been almost a year since I last graced these pages with my whit and charm!  Maybe because I was out of whit and my charm was wearing a little thing.  I thought it was a good time to add some writing to my schedule, but was I wrong.  It was a terrible time to add ANYTHING to my schedule!  It still may be, we will see. I just returned from a trip to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.  It was a incredible trip with some amazing and very diverse women.  Every one of them inspired me in some way and it was truly and experience of a lifetime.  Now we embark on one of my new subjects and absolutely the last thing I want to deal with but the absolute FIRST thing I need to deal with, a weight loss challenge.  I weighed in the night we returned from an all you can eat, all you can drink vacation, and needless to say it wasn't pretty!!  I may or may not keep you posted on this little adventure. Next I will be downsizing and getting my house sold....

Hens and Chicks and I am not talking birds!!

Like I said I am not talking about the birds.  I am talking about us Ladies!!  I am talking about the diversity of women that enrich my life and hopefully yours as well.  Its a little difficult to write about personal relationships because I know the people I am writing about are reading this.  It is hard to tread gently on feelings when that is exactly what I wish to stir up.  We all have Hens in our lives that we look up to and learn from and we all have Chicks.  Young ladies who are just starting out or starting over, and they need us.  Women need each other to talk to, to listen to, and sometimes even to peck at each other.  How can anyone learn from my mistakes if I am to proud to put them out there, which is dumb because in this community every body knows everything anyway!!  What good is my success if it is only used to be boastful and not available as a tool for someone else to succeed as well.  Opening up m...

March Madness

Well, I haven't really embraced the blogging every day thing.  I think it is strange for people to know what I am up to all the time and for safety sake I don't want to announce when I won't be at home.  Anyway, here are a few things that have gone on since I last checked in. For anyone who would like to give painting a try (the on canvas artistic kind) we had an awesome class at Brandyn Gasvodas on Saturday. Ingoodglazes.com is where you can find out more information and Shelly was a fabulous teacher.  A bunch of ladies painting, laughing, drinking wine, and having fun it was a great.  I also acquired a chicken coop that day!!!  It was headed to the dump and ended up on the back of my flatbed!  Now I have another project that I am so excited about but not really sure if anyone else is.    Alison's Pantry order #4 went in on Sunday.  I am so in love with the idea and hope it continues to take off like it is.  It is ...

I have been waiting on a sign, thinking I wanted to start a blog but not sure how or when.  Well, at my request a few weeks ago the cable t.v. was scheduled to be shut off.  When I got home from a meeting today, it was off.  I honestly didn't know how to act for a second.  I grabbed my popcorn from last night and sat down to watch Ellen..... and nothing.  Silly as it sounds I just sat there staring at the stupid thing wondering what the hell happened.  Then I remembered, OMG what am I going to do.  My best guess is lots of other stuff I should have been doing all along, well as soon as the shock wears off!!  I feel so uncomfortable right now, its the weirdest thing.  On a different note, the meeting today with the Crow Tribe was actually very productive and I have high hopes for the upcoming spray season!
