On Friday morning I was reading Braeden the book “The Gift of Nothing” it’s a great story about a little cat that wants to get his friend, a dog, something that he doesn’t already have, but it’s tricky, because his friend has everything, so after some good thinking the cat wraps an empty box and gives the […]
I like to live in a state of Flow, where I move from one thing to the next thing with momentum and ease on my side. This can only happen though if I have a bit of planning done because without that planning done flow turns pretty quickly into panic and scramble. Today I’m doing […]
The year was 2008. Lexi was a baby. It was not the easiest of years, I had tried to get a photo of Lexi for her first holiday photo card and nothing was working the way I wanted it to and then Lexi got sick and we didn’t head home for the only Christmas of […]
Happy Saturday and Happy Day 3 of our Subtraction Project. Have you ever been around someone that has “must be nice” syndrome? You do something (like book a life-long dream vacation to Italy) and they say “Must be nice!” and it is either said nicely or kinda not. I like to think that all of […]

Subtracting the excess to feel like you have more. “I have NOTHING to wear!” Is this a sentiment you’ve found yourself crying out as you attempt to get ready? All while you’re literally standing in front of a closet that is busting at the seams full of things to wear. Today, we’re going to break […]
