Shifting. Even if it feels inconsequential small shifts every day can help. I have no idea when I’ll be able to enjoy a coffee on my deck. But that doesn’t mean I can’t sit at my back door in the sun enjoying my coffee. Photo of Mila also asking when the snow will be gone.

We cannot control who comes into our lives -co workers, friends of friends, classmates, step families, people you meet at your children’s school. BUT you can decide where you want them in your life. Not everyone who comes into your life needs your attention or more importantly needs your energy. Your energy is your privilege of who you want to give it to.

NJ hasn’t seen much snow in recent years. I took the opportunity to walk around one of the local parks with my camera to show how beautiful the world can be when snow covered.

45 seconds of peace.

Sometimes it’s ok to just put your head down and shut out everything.

GOODBYE 2025 HELLO 2026. No need for resolutions.

I’m not sure about all of you, but I’ve been going and going and going, ignoring my own needs. My body let me know that by getting sick then hurting my back. I haven’t been to yoga in almost a month. I always talk about the importance of boundaries but I am human and don’t always practice what I preach. I haven’t vowed to myself that tomorrow I’ll be back at yoga and resting this next week because come January we are in full swing with sports. I wish you all peace and happiness. I wish you love.

The beauty that is in front of us.

It’s not just a t shirt or a sticker. It’s about taking the time to show up for yourself. It’s the dedication to yourself. It’s the thank you to yourself.
