Creating Space to Create Magic and Miracles The past few weeks have been tough. And magical. Both at once. I thought were going to make it through cold and flu season unscathed. A month ago, I had missed only one day of work because my daughter was running a fever. Guess I should’ve knocked […]
Be Kind to Yourself Normally, I step into each new year feeling rejuvenated, refreshed and ready to take on the world. This year, I have found myself with a horrible cough I can’t seem to kick, an aching body, the inability to sleep and the feeling of being frazzled and overwhelmed. Have you ever […]
Holiday Magic and Everyday Angels This past Sunday, I abandoned my husband and 3 year old daughter at 7 in the morning to venture out and finally begin my Christmas shopping. I hadn’t been so late on gift-buying since I was a child, following my haggard Mother around Sears looking for the perfect present for my Father, […]
Changing Your Underwear and Changing Other People My three year old daughter is at a really cool age. Finally, she’s reached a point where she can reason, have conversations, and ask questions.

For almost twenty years, I have lived a couple of streets north (or south) of Camelback. Except for 6 a.m. on a 115 degree Sunday morning, there’s […]
How to Find the Riches in Your Life I am a lip balm junkie. It doesn’t matter where I am or what I’m doing, my “lip stuff” is never more than an arm’s length away. At any given time, you can probably find no less than 3 different types of lip junk in my purse, […]
How to Deal with Disappointment I’m feeling unusually crestfallen right now. For several weeks, I have been looking forward to spending time with someone very special. It was someone I have been in love with since I was a teenager. When I found out he was traveling to Phoenix, I moved heaven and earth so we […]
