Saturday was an amazing day!
The morning was spent running errands with my husband, the noontime hour was spent sitting on my front steps reading a good novel, and the afternoon was spent having tea with friends.
Ahhhh…
Wait a minute… I don’t drink tea. I don’t like tea. What was I doing spending a Saturday afternoon […]
Last night I had the priviledge of viewing my friend Peggy’s art portfolio from a class she took last semester. She’s made it clear many times that she’s not artistic. I believed her until last night.
Now she’s taking a creative writing class and she was positively gushing over how talented she is! […]
I’ve written and talked about sharing your dreams (goals) with people who will help you achieve them. And by help I mean people who will support and encourage you as much as people who have actual talents or resources to help you accomplish your goals.
But today I’m going to encourage you to share your sleeping […]
Oops, I did it again!
The other day I fell for the old I’m-not-talking-to-you-I’m-on-my-cellphone trick. I was in the grocery store and approaching a woman who smiled and said “Hey, how’s it going?”
I smiled back and said, “I’m great! How are you?”
The smile disappeared from her face and she practically growled at me. “I’m not talking […]
A weird thing happened to me today. I was working on one of my major 2006 goals “Do a whole house cleaning” and found a sealed notecard on my desk. It had the name of a friend written on the front of the envelope. I knew I hadn’t written the notecard within the past few […]
Have you ever forgotten to do something? Have you ever promised to get information to someone or ask someone to do something?
If you’re like me, more often than not something slips through the cracks and gets overlooked.
I really appreciate it when people send me a note or give me a call with a gentle […]
“When our lives get overloaded, one of the first things we cut back is the time we spend with friends. But it is these very relationships that can center us, ease our stress, and remind of of our true priorities.” ~ New Seasons’ Friends perpetual calendar
Many people have heard me state that 2005 was the […]
I crawled out of bed at about 10:15 a.m. on Friday morning (I had worked some overtime on Thursday night from 6 p.m. til 2 a.m.–so I wasn’t just being a lazy slug!) The phone rang within minutes.
My daughter, a senior in high school, asked if I could pick her up early from school.
“How […]
This past Friday night five friends and I spent some time eating pizza and talking about our goals for the coming year.
There was a surprise announcement which created a moment of stunned silence before transforming into bursts of laughter and girlish chattering.
But most of the goals were fairly commonplace involving health, fitness and career […]
Our closest friends challenge us to change, to grow, and to become the best we can be. ~Unknown
That’s yesterday’s quote on my Friendship perpetual calendar. Yes, a friend gave it to me for Christmas, and yes I was a day behind in flipping the page. Oops.
I shared the quote with my GLOW-Girl friends because […]
