‘Enjoy Yourself’
This year, the Lord told me to make sure to schedule some time off to enjoy my life, my family, and my friends. It started off small; I planned a weekend away with my two best friends. From there, it kind of snowballed. My mom and I are planning two trips to see her parents…

10 Years A Friend
Today marks 10 years since I started at my first job in Kansas City, Missouri. Because I’ve had issues with iCloud and Dropbox over the years, I don’t have any pictures from 2014, but I know I took a lot of them. So this picture of my roommate and me taken by a photographer friend…

A Snow Day!
Today I woke up to a snow day. As a self-employed person, I have the luxury of taking the day off when the sky decides to dump 6 inches of snow. Thankfully I had cleared the schedule when they began threatening the amount of snow we were supposed to get. I’m really glad I did,…

Endings Bring New Beginnings

Bringing Joy (Or, How To Survive At A Higher Altitude)
This weekend I’m in Woodland Park, Colorado, at a women’s conference. Today is the last day, but now that I’m mostly over the altitude sickness, I decided to get a coffee at the beginning of the day. And then I wasn’t allowed in the auditorium because the cup doesn’t have a spill-proof lid. Whoops. So…

Expectations Met
After what seemed like the longest summer ever, I only have two more trips planned– that are NOT working trips!– and then I will be in Kansas City from the beginning of November until the end of January at the very least. I gotta be honest… I love traveling, but I am 100% traveled out.…
