(Take a breath. Get a drink. This is a long one. But it’s worth it. I promise think.) When I think of the perfect business woman, a very specific picture comes to mind. Someone who lives in a city, in a perfect apartment overlooking the city in which she works. She has perfect hair, perfectContinueContinue reading “The Art of Perfectionism”

After God’s Own Heart
“And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.” Acts 13:22 I am reading in both 1 Samuel andContinueContinue reading “After God’s Own Heart”
Writing, Life, and Carrying On
I’ve been working hard on my book and am up to 46,000 words. It is amazing to me how much easier it is to write when you don’t care about being cheesy and you don’t have to do research for historical bits. The miracle of a sappy romance set in modern America. But really, I amContinueContinue reading “Writing, Life, and Carrying On”
One of those nights
I am in a one of those moods tonight. Introspective, depressed, or whatever other adjectives you care to describe those nights when you just want to curl up and hide from the world. But, since I still have to be a little productive tonight, I thought perhaps if I wrote it out to you, allContinueContinue reading “One of those nights”
The Secret to Joy
I feel like I write these type of posts a lot, so if you still read them, either I am not alone in the world of figuring oneself out or you are really bored. All of you who have been around awhile or read previous posts know that I am the type to constantly pushContinueContinue reading “The Secret to Joy”
The Truth of People Pleasing
WHAT? Two posts in a row?? I know – I know, you think the world is coming to an end. But have no fear! It is only that I am at work, but have little to do (right now at least) and wanted to talk about something that I experienced yesterday but wasn’t ready toContinueContinue reading “The Truth of People Pleasing”
The Need for Silence
First things first – head over to my other blog (http://storyidyls.blogspot.com/) and check out my most recent post on fear of failure! Because you all know that is my favorite subject, so I couldn’t resist posting about it on there too and am currently working hard not to regret it. Second things second: I loveContinueContinue reading “The Need for Silence”
This Chaotic World
I haven’t written in awhile I know – I have been surprisingly busy – or too tired. One or the other. I took a work trip to Phoenix, which was just lovely. The only down side, of course, was that my husband wasn’t with me. Around that time, my progress in CampNaNo began collapsing andContinueContinue reading “This Chaotic World”
Happy Independence Day! Yay for long weekends! And other random stuff.
I know it has been awhile since I have written. I just – haven’t had much to say. It has been really busy – although for the life of me, I couldn’t say what with. It isn’t like I have been working out or anything. Or even traveling that much. Life just happens. It’s actuallyContinueContinue reading “Happy Independence Day! Yay for long weekends! And other random stuff.”
Counting Blessings
It is a cold, dreary day outside, and I woke with the depressed feeling of knowing it was time to trudge off to work once more, where I can expect at least four emails telling me what I did wrong this time. In case you didn’t notice, I don’t take criticism very well. I know, IContinueContinue reading “Counting Blessings”
