Mental Fortitude

August 20, 2018

Recently I was questioned by a dear friend as to why it appears as though I have discontinued my blogging.  My response – mental fortitude.  Shall we take a moment and look at the definition of that phrase? mental and emotional strength in facing difficulty, adversity, danger, or temptation courageously: Never once did her fortitude waver during that long illness. So, um, yeah, that is what has been going on with me.  I like the part of that definition that adds the word…

Did She Just Say Transing?

June 27, 2018

Standing next to my truck I realized what had occurred, I just locked my keys inside.  It was truly an unreal moment and I stood there for a bit absolutely dumbstruck.  This couldn’t really be happening could it?  Yes, yes it could, and it was.  I tried pushing some random numbers into my key-less entry system as I never actually bothered to memorize the actual combination.  I knew it was a five digit code, but that was about it.   Proving…

Artsy Hat – Sharpie Tie Dye

May 14, 2018

I have been searching for a nice feminine hat and have been disappointed by the available selections.  Sure there are quite a few baseball caps out there that are pretty cute, however I really like to wear wide brim hats.  Remember that whole skin cancer thing I mentioned awhile back?  Well I keep imagining them having to take that kind of slice out of my face and yikes that is some scary shit!  So, yeah, the least I can do…

Branching Out

April 27, 2018

A receipt?  Yup, a receipt.  This receipt is kind of special to me.  The sort of thing that if I were fifteen years old again it would go into my keepsake box and be stored away for too many years.  It is a bit of a marker.  It is the only piece of tangible evidence of me starting a new endeavor, public speaking. I recently connected with a popular international public speaker, Jessica Lynn.  She came to one of my…

Play The Hand You Have Been Dealt?

November 29, 2017

It’s a fascinating thing, sitting back and attempting to observe yourself.  I once had a boss tell me that I had the most accurate self reflections of anyone he had ever met.  That really pleased me.  For if there is one thing that I have constantly striven to do, it has been to have an accurate picture of who I am.  Thinking of that line now, I have to laugh.  For if I was actually accurate in my self reflections,…
