Snow no more...

2016 will bring a move for us! We are going from the Midwest to the south. I for one am DONE with the cold and the snow! We have our home on the market and wow, isn't that a lot of fun?!?!?!?! Actually, its a bit early to say that...we've been on the market for 6 days. Six days and we have had 4 showings. When it's cold and snowy and January in the Midwest, I think that is very good! But now I'm ready for an offer. ;)  I know, I know, relax and take it easy. It could take some time. So for now I dream of a new home and constantly clean and organize this one. How's YOUR 2016 looking so far?

What will it look like?

                      2016 has arrived! Are you excited? What will this next year bring and what will we create? We can sit back in a 'wait and see' posture OR we can make things happen! One is easier and one is more fulfilling, complete with growth. When we step out and actually do and be it is amazing! We all have potential far greater then we can imagine. Others see it in us, believe in us. If for no other reason, let's do it for them! When you accomplish something that seems unattainable the feeling is like no other. Have you felt it? This year I plan to create what I want from life. To strive to reach my potential, to see myself as others do...as God does. He has given all of us gifts. They are different but all are special, important and necessary.  Take some time to create the life and experiences that you want, that are necessary to reach your potential.

The Reason for the Season

Have a very merry Christmas! I hope you are spending it with family, friends and all those that mean everything to you! And while you are wrapped in the love of those around you remember the reason for the season.

                                

10 years later...

My father passed away 10 years ago tomorrow. It is strange to type that...I can't believe it has been 10 years since I have heard his voice, his laugh or his whistle. He was full of humor, wisdom and emotion, something he didn't like. He was of that generation that was not supposed to show their emotions. I am a lot like him, I love to laugh, hope to have wisdom and I am filled with emotion. I can't not cry no matter how hard I try! I always felt bad for my dad because he felt he had to leave the room so we could not see the tears. He loved us SO much and we all felt it.

When he passed away the real estate office I worked at, sent me a floral arrangement. It is a silk arrangement because I was away at the funeral. It is beautiful and I put it out every year and think of him and those that sent it. Memories, family and friends...it is what makes our lives rich and worthwhile.

Pause...

With all the hustle and bustle of the season, remember to take time to pause and ENJOY! Family and friends and of course the real reason for the season are meant to be enjoyed.
