Are you already all decorated for Christmas? Starting to shop? In the Christmas spirit?

Or are you just going through the motions to get to 2021?!?

I was in the camp that I just wanted Christmas to come so the year would be over! It has been rough. So many unknowns. I run into scared, rude people every time I leave my home.

As I started getting into my decorations and ornaments, though, with my favorite Christmas album playing, I can say I can’t wait! The spirit of Christmas has really kicked in.

The holidays can feel threatening in many ways. You may feel the desire to put on a coat of armor and build a wall around your loved ones. Maybe your in-laws will be extra critical at family gatherings. Maybe your sister will make comments about the way you look or your Aunt Lolly will making cutting remarks about your parenting skills.

When people are together, hurt is possible and probable.

Fall is such a great time of the year!

Pumpkins and leaves and cooler air are my favorite! Even here in Florida we get in the fall spirit! (Please send me pictures of the leaves changing, though! I miss that so much!)

The downside of fall is the beginning of cold and flu season. So let’s arm ourselves and our homes with natural solutions.

In this episode Kari and Sandra talk about how much we miss having connection with other people and tips to get some of it back!

In this episode Kari and Sandra talk about moving through the steps of change or grief that we are going through in 2020, when we lose someone, or when life just plain gets derailed. Be encouraged today!

How do I truly know when I am seeking my purpose in life?

Writing this blog feels very full circle to me, so stick with me as I try to put the pieces of my mom brain together.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 10 year anniversary (during a global pandemic!) and as I’ve been reflecting over the last decade, I have been wrestling with my purpose.

How many times has your little one asked you to slow down?

My poor kids. I am a power walker. It’s just how I grocery shop and walk to the car. I forgot when they were small that their little legs couldn’t keep up. Bless their little hearts. How they endured me, I’ll never know.

I sure wish I would have listened.

How are you doing?

We are so united as a human race right now! I can safely say every single person has just had their life altered in some way!

How are you doing?

No, how are you REALLY doing?

Are you so busy taking care of so many people that you have forgotten to take care of the basics? We all need to take care of ourselves if we are to get through this time of intense trial healthy and with our relationships in tact.

Let go of control and do what you need to recharge!

Don’t think for one second that I am not pinching myself in gratitude that this is where I live. I have chosen to live in Florida because I learned as a very young adult that I had to be in the sunshine in order for me to thrive. I went back to college in Cleveland Ohio and really struggled in the winter when I didn’t see the sun. I knew at age 20 that I had to design a life that I loved and moved to Florida. I promised myself that I would always appreciate the palm trees and the sunshine. 

Stuck in your life?   There’s no movement, there’s no momentum. And I’ve been feeling it.

I want to go through what I’ve been feeling and how I pull myself out of it.

First, this will have to be consistent behavior that’s chosen, so that it can become habit.  When it becomes a consistent behavior of choosing to have the right mindset about being stuck, then it automatically becomes habit.
