Blogger Recognition Award

I have been blessed by a couple of my blogging friends to have received some awards again! I have to apologize to them because I am so far behind on these awards, but appreciate this honor so much!

One Year Ago Today …

Exactly one year ago, I introduced myself to the world. I pressed publish and made a conscious choice to expose my life and vulnerabilities to anyone and everyone who wanted to read my stories.

Life Lessons and Sports

So I was a sports mom. Not a soccer mom, probably more a softball mom – but if anyone ever asked me what my favorite team was, I would say, “whatever team my kid is playing on.”

I Believe: The Current State of My Faith

I don’t go to church anymore, but my faith has never been stronger! A few of you may want to argue that point with me, and some currently do, but I know how I feel.

Behind Closed Doors

Behind closed doors is a glimpse into a chapter in my life of being previously married to an alcoholic. Nobody knew what was going on behind my doors.

The Liebster Award

Thank you so much to Ann Marie Ruby for this award! I am so honored by a woman of such beautiful substance to nominate me. The goodness and positivity that exudes from her makes me want to be a better person.
It took me so long to get to this award, not because I wasn’t thrilled, but because it was the holidays and I was struggling.

Hopes For The New Year

Prior to the start of every new year, seems to be the time when we reflect on our lives. We think about the past year and start to wonder what we want moving forward. In order to think about what our hopes will be for the upcoming year, we need to go back. Looking back on 2018 isn’t easy for me.
