Blog postRene Manning Wilson It's never easy to say goodbye, whether it's just for a few months or for longer. The people we love in our lives leave an impact on our hearts. They've made our world a better place, and even though we may disagree with them, ultimately, we are tethered by a connection forged in similarities.
I met Rene Manning Wilson online in 2006, and we became fast friends even though we lived over 500 miles apart and only got to see each other once or twice a year.&nb -
Blog postWe are only a couple of weeks away from the start of another year, and with it, the chance to learn new things. If you haven’t considered learning something new every year, it’s something you should consider.
Learning new things gives us something to look forward to, can improve our moods, and even help us make new friends, whether online or in public.
Every year, I make a list of things I want to learn that year. I don’t always accomplish them, but it helps to hav -
Blog postIt’s the time of the year when people are rushing around, frantically trying to put presents underneath the tree. Most have a limited or no budget, and one of the things I really like to do on this blog is to help those who are under a financial burden. Holidays can be especially stressful because it requires extra money you might not have.
But Christmas gifts don’t require big expenditures. Love doesn’t come with a price tag. If you enjoy spending a lot of money at Christmas, then, b -

Blog postWith all the Christmas shopping and visiting I'll be doing over the next month, today, I am so grateful for comfortable shoes!
I have had four surgeries on one foot, and it took quite a while for me to find a pair that did not bother the scars. Once I did, I stuck to that brand. Your feet take a lot of abuse so it's important to treat them well. If only I'd learned that sooner...
Today is the last day of my 30 days of gratitude. I hope you've enjoyed this past mon -
Blog postToday, I'm grateful for pets, well, one. My cat, Temperance. I call her Tempee, and yes, she is named after the main character Dr. Temperance Brennan from the television show Bones.
Years ago, after my last cat died, I swore I would never have another animal, but in 2013, something drew me to the animal shelter. I went in to just look at the cats, but when the volunteer took Tempee out of her cage, and her little head flopped on my shoulder, I knew I was a goner. She came home -
Blog postToday is Small Business Saturday, a day when local business try to draw shoppers into their smaller stores for Christmas purchases. And because I'm grateful for each small business that struggles to keep its head afloat in the face of the retail giants, I always make it a point to go shopping on Small Business Saturday. Those businesses count on customers like me to prevent them from being overtaken by vast commercialism. It might not be much, but I will always do my part to help those tr

Blog postOutside my window, I can hear slamming car doors and excited people returning from a marathon shopping spree. They're carrying their purchases into the house while I sit here reading a book. And while I'm sure my neighbors got some good deals, I know that I spent a relaxing day falling in love with my favorite book here again. I didn't fight traffic or stand in long lines to make a purchase because we still have over a month until Christmas. There's plenty of time to shop, and I know reta

Blog postToday, I'm grateful for Thanksgiving and not just because of the food or the time I get to spend with family and friends. I'm grateful for the chance to consider everything I'm thankful for. We don't dwell on our blessings enough, and Thanksgiving gives me that one day that's all about gratitude. So all throughout the day, I'm reminded that I have so many reasons to be glad for my life and those in it.

Blog postNotice I didn't say I'm grateful that I get to cook? That would be dishonest. I don't like cooking. In fact, I will avoid it at any costs, but I am grateful that I learned how to cook. Much of the time, it's cheaper to cook than it is to eat out. So I did a lot of cooking during my college days. With Thanksgiving tomorrow, I'll be cooking this evening as well, and I'm glad that I can bring something to our gathering, even though my family knows they only receive a cooked dish from me twic

Blog postLast night, a long distance friend and I spent close to three hours on the phone, talking about anything and everything. I cleaned house while we talked, and she cooked and baked, our conversation a natural accompaniment. We live almost four hours away from one another, and our conversations are always epic in length, but this was one of our longest. What was one of the greatest things about it is we never ran out of things to talk about. There were no long pauses because we were too busy

Blog postA friend of mine says there's nothing like a lesson you buy and pay for yourself. It's her way of saying you learn more from lessons that cost you, and I couldn't agree more. As much as I adore the teachers in my life, there have been times when they could not have taught me what a choice I made did.
You know, like when you go on a shopping spree simply because you feel like shopping and the next morning, your car won't start and suddenly you're having to scramble for the money to -

Blog postI often wish I could go back in time, to see
how people lived in the 1800 and 1900s.
I'd love to ride in a horse-drawn carriage
through the dusty streets on my way to
a one-room church. And don't even get
me started on the 1920s! I love that era.
All of this said, I would only want to visit
not stay because I know I'd miss the
wonders of this world too much.
Technology has changed our world, and though it might not all be f -
Blog postAt some point in our lives, we all need to make extra money. Maybe you’re waiting to see if you got the job you really want, or maybe there’s too much month at the end of the money. Either way, it’s time to see how you can bring in extra income. Below are three ways that have been proven to work. (Either I have tried them, I know someone personally who has tried them, or I have read the success story in a reputable magazine or online publication.)
Take in laundry. That’s right. You can ea -

Blog postWe get one life. Taking care of our health should be a priority. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Maybe you don’t have health insurance or no one in your family ever gets sick. Perhaps longevity runs in your family. If that’s the case, great, but that isn’t a guarantee. We need to be proactive when it comes to our health. Here are five ways to make sure you’re protecting one of your greatest assets.
Get an annual check-up. You may not feel like you need it, but by monitori -
Blog postI turned fifty on May 13th, and I’m still single. Did it bother me? No, because I know that being single isn’t a disease nor does it prevent me from doing anything I want to do.
My friends threw me a HUGE birthday bash, and I got to hang out with people I hadn’t seen in a long while. It was a celebration of food, fun, and friendship that lasted well into the night.
During the party, I talked to a friend of mine who has a significant other, but he never wants to do anything wit -
Blog postGrief comes into all of our lives. It’s inevitable, and sometimes, we beat ourselves up about not “getting over” what’s causing our grief in a certain amount of time. We think there might be something wrong with us because we’ve been encouraged to move on but can’t. In psychologist Georgia Schaffer’s book, A Gift of Mourning Glories: Restoring Your Life After Loss, she shares guidelines for those experiencing loss, and nowhere does she say “get over it.”
So what can you do when you ar -

Blog postI was talking to a friend of mine today who feels like she isn’t where she should be in her life and that she doesn’t measure up to everyone around her. As I was reassuring her, I wondered how many other women feel the same way, and that led to this post. Regardless of where you are in life, there are five things you should tell yourself (repeat several times over, if you have to) every day.
I don’t have to measure up to anyone’s standards. If the person in the next office drives a n -
Blog postTechnology has taken over our lives. We email, text, and chat as ways of communication with occasional phone calls thrown in. One thing we are missing out on is writing. Actually putting pen to paper. If there is one thing I enjoy, it’s writing in a journal. There’s something about filling up the crisp, clean pages with thoughts from my heart. But writing letters and notes to the people you love has so much more meaning now. You’re not taking the easy way out. You’re actually sitting down and

Blog postI know this sounds like an odd post heading. Not everyone things about pictures as often as I do, but my obsession has a purpose. Not only do I get to share the beauty of the world with others, I get to look back on memories I might otherwise forget. And there are so many other reasons to take pictures. So many people only take pictures when they’re on vacation, but how often do we go on vacation? Life is what happens during the fifty or fifty-one weeks you’re not on vacation!
Pictures ar -
Blog postMy car broke down last Thursday. Thankfully, I do have roadside assistance, which I mentioned every single woman needs. A battery jump started my car but didn’t last so my car got towed to the nearest dealership. As I sat there, patiently waiting for what I thought would be a battery replacement, the tech comes to tell me that my key needs to be reprogrammed as well because it wasn’t starting the car. So, along with the cost of a new battery, I would also be charged $220 for reprogrammi
