“Do everything with a mind that lets go . . . If you let go a little, you will have a little peace. If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace. If you let go completely, you will know complete peace and freedom. Your struggle with the world will have come to an end.” ~ – Ajahn Chah I found this quote this morning that lead me to ask…… What does it mean to win? Have you ever asked yourself that question? Everyday, there are people who get up out of bed to take on yet another day of their life. For some, a plan is set in place with what they have to accomplish for that day. For others it’s pretty much hit or miss, whatever happens happens. How do you approach your days? Do you have a winning attitude that will lead to your success? You certainly don’t have to answer these questions, here. I don’t want you to feel pressured. I just want you to think about it and find your answers for yourself.

What's up beautiful people of the blogosphere!!! Life is so funny at times. Do you remember my last 'Thursday's Thought of the Day post, the one I posted on November 8th? Well if you don't, just click here to read it, then you'll know what I'm talking about. As you can see it's a pretty powerful quote by John C. Maxwell , don't you agree? My point is, I've been taking that quote literally to heart. How awful would it be for me to sit here day in and day out and find all of these great quotes, share them, and never take heed, learn from them and apply them to my own life. Without even realizing it, I believe that when all of a sudden I started having problems with my internet it was an opportunity for me to sit back, get quiet (as far as my time spent online) and do some serious reflecting on how it was affecting my family life. I started seeing some not so pretty things. I started seeing how much time I was taking away from my family by being so ...

The days are getting colder here in Georgia , the kind of weather that I’m not afraid off. As a matter of fact it’s one of my favorite times of year. I enjoy bundling up, feeling the cold wind hitting my face, getting cozy in front of the fireplace. It’s an excuse to get close. Someone once asked me how do I do it? How do I maintain the closeness that D. and I share? When do we find the time to you know, make mad passionate love (the kind where you’re left panting and wanting for more)? Umm, ok I’m back. My mind got away from me there. Now where was I? Oh yeah, the question. My answer: whenever, wherever, however, and with whatever. I know you’re probably scratching your head right now. The last part hit you with a left, right? Let me explain. We love to use toys, (well I do, that is), he loves to watch and use them on me. When I shared this with the person who asked me their response was one of shock and confusion. “What do you mean”, they said. I mean exactly what I said. Toys ar...

I've got to admit something guys, my Internet has been up and running for a week now but I decided that it was time to take a break. I didn't realize how much I was missing and being missed at home and from friends and family. While I was gone I started a book club. I love to read and hadn't been able to finish a book since I started blogging consistently. I've been getting to bed before 2am, read several magazines that have piled up over the months, joined a gym (it's time to get these muscles pumped up and toned). I'll share the pics when the time is right. I love the gym and my membership includes child care, so I take my kids with me. My oldest comes along to help out. She's enjoying the responsibility of taking care of the younger kids. The teacher is always asking if I'm going to bring her with me the next time. I'm taking step, cardio, core building, and body sculpting classes. I love using the machines. I just pop in Jay-Z, hit the treadmi...
