Relaxing and Exploring
Day 3 I think it’s important to build in days of relaxation in between your days of adventures when going on vacation. This was a new concept to my husband, Patric who wants to jam-pack as much as possible when we go to new places. I understand that desire because you don’t necessarily know if/when you will be back to…

Our Travel to Mexico
At the end of January, my husband and I flew to Merida, Mexico. Merida is on the Yucatan Peninsula and is just over 3 hours northwest of Cancun.

We have had incredible food and have been able to relax by the pool. Confession – I spent way too many years hating my body. It really is a love/hate relationship I have…

The Bird in the Storm
Art I’m in a rut, artistically speaking, right now. I’ve signed up for quite a few things this year and nothing is speaking to me. Yesterday, I continued working on a piece that I started this week-end and I’m very “meh” about it right now. I try to be gentle with myself as a newbie artist, but this is something…

Getting back to normal
Yesterday in a word felt normal. I went out into the world by myself to do shopping for Easter and for my boys who have birthdays about a week apart. I went into Ulta to buy some of my favorite products and spent more than I was planning because it felt so indulgent. Tomorrow morning I will drive with my…
