Happy Labor Day, readers! Today I’m celebrating the labor of love – aka, me and Kyle’s two-year anniversary. One of the perks of getting married on a holiday weekend was that we’d always have an extra day off around our anniversary, which comes in handy for taking celebratory trips. We spent this weekend exploiting that…

I like the work week – the structure of it, the routine, the habits. Knowing what I’m supposed to be doing at all hours of the day. I keep myself busy, and I like it. But sticking to that busy-ness on the weekend is pretty stupid. The more I do it, the more it stifles…
Blog activity on this website has been pretty non-existent for, oh, a year, but my fingers haven’t stopped running across the keyboard. My pen hasn’t stopped moving.

Happy Friday, my dear reader friends! It has been a great week here for me. Just as some projects are nearing their end, a few new clients have come my way and work is balancing out pretty nicely. I’m also working on a new personal project that is reigniting my passion and purpose for writing….

Happy Friday, dear readers! It’s my favorite time of the week – TGIF Post time! Basically, a time to reflect on the wins, losses and realizations to make sure we’re all on the right track towards our goals. This kind of reflection is necessary for our overall happiness too.
