I am limiting my social media consumption for the next few weeks. It’s become a tradition of mine as a reset before starting the New Year. I have been participating in the Habit Challenge organized by Team Tactic, and it has been enlightening. I will share my biggest takeaway below. I started off really wellContinue reading “Merry Christmas”

Habits challenge Day 2
What was the last thing, person, or moment you felt grateful for? Last thing I was grateful for was my pillow. Since purchasing the pillow, my sleep has improved because of the pillow. The person I was grateful for today; other than my husband whom I’m always grateful for; is my coworker who sits behindContinue reading “Habits challenge Day 2”
Friends
This week, I had 2 members of the Relief Society presidency come to my home and visit with me. It was a good visit. They indirectly asked about my church attendance. And, I was honest. I have little patience for the social part of church. I don’t have many close relationships at church. I thinkContinue reading “Friends”
What I see…
As July goes on and I see my feed with massively scary stories and a few people try to show and share their pride in their existence, I wonder what I can add to the cacophony that would be worthwhile and meaningful. As a disabled human being who’s always aware of what my limits areContinue reading “What I see…”
Gift
It has been a long time since I’ve considered cerebral palsy as anything less than a gift. I advocate for myself for what I need to live my best life now. Knowing that one day I won’t have to… I’ll be able to do whatever I want. Sometimes, it’s a gift I do not want,Continue reading “Gift”
What little things bring you great joy? 3. Driving with my music blasting. 2. Lying in bed with my husband in the quiet of the morning before either of us is awake. 1. Being able to see and talk to my son whenever we want.

Setting my new habit last night. I completed my 10 things of gratitude. Instead of watching TV to fall asleep, I found a true crime podcast for sleep. It was interesting but soothing and I slept through the night without my screen being on. This morning, as I was getting ready for work and driving,Continue reading “Day 1 of Mindful Intention”
Sabbath Day
I stayed home from church with a bad allergy attack. On my mind, today was how I can draw closer to Christ in my life that isn’t a cliché answer. What came to my mind was being consistent. Consistent in my thoughts, words, and actions. What that looks like in the realm of my spiritualContinue reading “Sabbath Day”
Kindness Thursday
Popping up on my social media feed is the #kindness movement. Our team at work sometimes has trouble leading with kindness. It is indicative of the attitude of some of our leaders who have a hard time finding something positive to say about a subordinate. So today I took the concept of kindness Thursday intoContinue reading “Kindness Thursday”
Sunday at Home
It’s a conference weekend at church. Generally, that’s the weekend where we gather and hear from people from our region. It’s been a minute since I’ve been to a local conference. Why? There is no in between for me. I am the same person outside of church as I am when I walk into theContinue reading “Sunday at Home”
