I recently purchased a new piece of jewelry. It’s so cool! It wraps around my wrist, looks pretty cute and does the most amazing thing: it tells me what time it is. And that’s all it tells me. It doesn’t tell me when someone calls, that someone needs to see a house, what the weatherContinue reading “Watch YourSelf(ie)”

“That’s all I have to say about that.”
I have been wearing a pretty deep rut in my mind for the past couple weeks. It came to a head this week and I found myself unable to relax at all. My spirit was wound up and fearful, causing me to feel frozen. Paralyzed. Have you ever felt immobilized over your lack of controlContinue reading ““That’s all I have to say about that.””
