Attitude is Everything

LIFE
Today I’m pondering attitude. And sharing an inspiring quote. Love me some HumpDay Wisdom ;) Attitude is so important. Things are going to happen in life that we aren’t ready for. Certain things will change. People will come and go. You’ll be judged unfairly a time or two. And you’ll probably judge somebody else. Without even meaning to.

Blogger Secrets Revealed!

BLOGGING
I’ve been at this blogging game for about 4 months now and I cannot believe how much I have learned and discovered in that time period. Who knew that this blogging world had so much to offer.

Or that I would find so much...

It was everything and more. I could not ask for a better way to celebrate...

“The Only People for Me are the Mad Ones”…

LIFE
Do any of you save ALL of your letters, birthday cards, notes, & pictures? Okay, phew. Glad I’m not flying solo with this one. I love snail mail. I love hand written notes. These little things matter to me. You know why? I spent last night flipping through years worth of moments and memories. Laughing. Crying. Reminiscing. Remembering. There are days when I have lows, just like every other human on this planet. And these boxes of love make...

January Highlights

LIFE
Woo January! That flew by fast. I’m not one who has ever really minded January. Maybe because it is my birthday month. Or maybe because I still look at it as a fresh start and acclimation to winter.

Here are my highlights from the past 31 days :) I got to...
