Valentine’s Day is wonderful because it’s all about celebrating the romantic love of a couple. Super Rockstar and I have enjoyed over 25 Valentine’s Day’s together and they have all been special. I love all of the candy and gifts that we give to each other and celebrating loving each other with a special night…
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about my new found determination in tackling my 2020 Goals (you can read that here). I wrote a list of 12 and here are my top 5. Lose weight. Pay off our debt. Purge and organize the past 10 years worth of photos. Write a book. Focus my…
Guess what time it is? Anyone? That’s right–it’s time to make New Year’s resolutions. Actually, it’s two weeks into this brand new year and I’m late to the party. I should have already made them and been failing at them by now. Don’t worry…I’ll catch up. I read an article a while back that stated…
Twenty five years ago today was an amazing day–I got to marry the man I love. We had such a great wedding–set in the gorgeous Sangre de Cristo mountains in the sweet town of Westcliffe, Colorado with all of our family and close friends with us. The church had these huge picture windows behind…

Each new year I begin the same way. I sit in my favorite comfy chair with a clean sheet of paper and a good sturdy ink pen and write Goals for(whatever the current new year)at the top of the page. I then proceed to make a list of things I hope to accomplish in the…
Happy New Year! I’m so glad we all made it safely into 2019 and I’m really looking forward to what this year will bring. But before I’m ready to launch forward into the new, I like to take a peek back. So often I only remember the difficulties (and there were many). It helps to…
First of all–if you haven’t seen the movie “A Star is Born” and plan to–read at your own risk–there are spoilers. Secondly, for those of you who have–how could you?! How could you NOT prepare me for how this movie would destroy me emotionally. I was literally in the fetal position and completely spent…
This past couple of weeks have been hard. I got the bad news that my Aunt Pat–who had been battling cancer–lost the fight. Grieving her loss has had me thinking a lot about my family. These are the Floyds (a good portion of them anyway): This is my family and my heritage. The…
