  • Choose Happy

    I’m a huge Ted Lasso fan. It’s right up there with Harry Potter for me. I’m on my second run through of watching both seasons. I’m not really sure what it is about him and the show itself. I think maybe it gives me hope and helps me strive to be less judgy. And it makes me think. Like this quote from the second season, not sure what episode, “every disadvantage has its advantages.”

    Kelley Knickerbocker is a visual artist and instructor. I enjoy her work. I find her story of leaving her career behind to become a full-time artist and her art inspiring.  I haven't taken one of her classes yet but it's only a matter of time. Check out her Instagram and her website

  • Work Life Balance

    It’s been a crazy month or two for me. I was so on the ball at the beginning of the year, when everything is fresh and new and all I have are ideas that I’m ready to put into action. The beginning of a new year is generally slow for me so it makes it a great time for possibilities. We are 5 months in and all the prep work I put into place for a great start to the year have ended and I’ve been too busy to keep up with it. I’d say I was disappointed in myself but it’s not like I’ve been binge watching TV the last several months. Well, I have been but I’m good a multitasking usually. BTW… Ted Lasso, it’s must see
