A Decade of Love

My husband and I celebrate ten years of marriage today.

Beating Back the Demon

Body image.
I’m pretty sure it’s something we all wrestle with, to varying degrees. We live in a culture that doesn’t teach us to be comfortable in our own skin and, no matter how much we may try to rebel against the images and messages we get in the media, we’re fighting a losing battle.

So. I’ve been noticing that the Universe has been sending me a lot of messages about patience lately. Specifically, patience as it relates to the big things in my life - my home and my work.
I’m not sure that I wouldn’t catagorize myself as a patient person (yes, I know, there were a [...]
