You may have noticed that I didn’t post an adventure on Monday like I usually do. Mom was working this weekend, so we didn’t have a big adventure. We thought we would take a stab at a poem together. Mom has been writing poetry since she was a little girl. I’m pretty new to it; […]
Defy Your Diagnosis & Overcome Any Obstacle
Here we are at the beginning of yet another new year. Some have great anticipation and excitement for what might be, but many others are weighted down with what has been: they have been told they aren’t enough; have listened to negative voices; have experienced painful relationship breakups; have been diagnosed with a disease; deal […]

YOUR HEALTH Depending upon how happy your holidays were, you may be feeling sluggish and fatigued. Even if you were good, January is a great month to get serious about your flexibility.

Following Atticus – Book Review by Kuma the dog
My mom just got done reading Following Atticus by Tom Ryan. This is an older book but is definitely worth the read. It is categorized as a memoir, but it is full of adventures big and small.

Coaching can help you press on
