National Running Day!


Today is National Running Day.  I'll do my best to get my miles done.  June has been interesting, to say the least to fit it all in ... husband interviewing for new job, found out our summer program/before and after school care center is closing their doors in a few weeks, ongoing back pain .. and of course the normal daily grind .... and yet, I endure.  I smile, share and as I tell my daughter to do, 'come from a caring heart place.'

Here's to National Running Day!!

    I like that - "come from a caring heart place." Some days I really need to work on that!!

    Thanks, me too! I remind my daughter (hands over her heart) to make decisions from a kind and caring heart. Sometimes I need to remind myself to treat myself from a caring heart place too!

Day 19: My first job

Memories of my childhood bakery with a cannoli …. As this roller coaster ride of emotions and outpouring continues on Day 19 challenge to blog each day in the month of November for Blogember I recall my first job. I often say that when we recall the past, things that appear to have gone on forever, are often relatively short in the grand scheme of things.  After my dad passed away when I was 8, my mom remarried a year later.  By the time I was 10 they went into business together opening a neighborhood Italian bakery on the west side of the town I grew up in. This was long before the days of Carlo's Bakery where cakes cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars. A bakery was a lot of hours and energy for very little profit back then.  To that end, I was cheap labor and was trained to bag rolls and make change at the cash register.  In retrospect it talk me a lot about customer service, the value of relationships in returning customers and how running a family b...

Day 18: Happiest Moment of my Life

For Day 18 of the Blogember challenge to blog each day during the month of November, today's topic is the Happiest Moment of my Life.  Hmmm. … this could get interesting! I believe that life is an array of moments strung together creating who we are and what we stand for.  And during those moments we encounter joy, pain, disappointment, sorrow, glee and a miriad of emotions and experiences along the way. Certainly the ones that stand out for me are the moment my daughter was born.  She was truly a gift from God - a miracle - a blessing - and long-awaited at that!  She's the life that my husband and I created from the love that we share.  And along that same vane, when I married my husband was an incredibly happy moment as well.  We didn't marry until age 35, each bringing our histories and patterns into the life we chose to share together.  It was a long road up until then, and now it's a shared one! Other happiest moments: *  Climbing...

Day 9: Favorite Online Shopping Spots

As today's topic for Blogember ; where I have committed to posting every day during the month of November - today's topic is online shopping! Likely the easiest one by far for me, as I'm truly not a big shopper.  The thought of Black Friday makes me develop hives instantaneously!  I'd much rather sit at the keyboard, make some quick decisions, enter my online coupon and click 'purchase' to confirm my shopping cart selections! 1.  Somehow it feels as though I should have a site at the number one spot where I purchase for others, and yet I have my all-time, and most visited spot Sephora !  When the box arrives on the front step, my entire family knows a box of wishes, dreams and magic is soon to be opened!  I love make-up, skin care, hair products and most of all the wonderful samples that arrive in each box!  Oh the magic! 2.  Whew, now that I've finished #1, I'm happy to say that my next favorite site is all about my daughter .. Gymboree ! ...
