We all have weaknesses. For women like me, Hobby Lobby is a weakness. My best friend and I recently dared to go in to Hobby Lobby in pursuit of particular craft items. I have to say, I am proud of myself. I did not buy anything. Shocking, I know! But I did take notes. I…
Find Your Tribe- Love Them Hard!
Find your tribe. Embrace them. Love them hard. Let them love you. What’s a tribe? Well, they say that it takes a village to raise a child. I am proposing that it takes a tribe to raise an adult. There are people in your life that you lean on when life gets hard, you celebrate life’s victories with,…
I don’t read, I listen
I’m on the road a lot and when I’m not driving I tend to keep myself busy. With my boyfriend living over an hour away, I find myself driving and needing something to keep me from getting bored. That’s when I found audible! Who has time to sit down and read?! Not me! I know,…

Thank you for letting me love your kids
At 31 years old, my life hasn’t really turned out like I planned. I own a car, a house, am active in my local Rotary club and local theatre, have a career in marketing and have two dogs that greet me with wagging tails and jumps of joy when I come home. All of those…
Get your fit together: Final Week!

She’s a Kindergartener Now!
Like many mommas last week, I sent my first born and baby girl to kindergarten. As the first day of school neared and we closed the chapter of preschool, I began to prepare myself for the flood of tears I knew would come when we walked her in that first day. I began reaching out…
Get your fit together: Week 3
Spree’s update: I went to bed with an excruciating headache on Saturday night. Nothing to brag about, right? Well, actually it is. That was my first headache since starting this challenge.
