Finally... Christmas vacation has begun.  Too funny ... what did I just do?  I signed on to my work computer to check my sales and read email.  I guess it's just my routine and, no surprise, my...

One more day until my Christmas vacation starts.  Then I'm off until Jan. 4th.   Thank God ... I really need a break.

I just had the thought ... what are "baby steps?"  As adults we say that when people are making slow progress toward a goal ... but what are baby steps, in relation to a baby?  They're life...

Today is a better day, so far anyway.  I got 5 hours of sleep last night ... so I feel rested and refreshed.

I was able to sleep last night.  Feeling somewhat better, more optomistic, today ... but wary that it will all come crashing down.  Going to just get on with my day and try not to over focus on...

No sleep for almost two days now.  The exhaustion is really starting to impact my thoughts and mood.  I've been drinking coffee all morning but it's not helping.  Got to get out the door soon to a...

The holidays are like zombie arms reaching out of the ground pulling me back into my past.  I'm trying to stay in front of it ... trying to stay positive .... but it seems that my brain has...

Well... my time off has ended but the relaxation continues.  Ahhhh.... I'm back at work today, after a wonderful spa weekend away with friends, plus an additional two days off.  Monday I had yoga...

I took a few days off from work to spend some planned time with friends.  It's been nice.  I find myself very relaxed and calm.  Such a welcome and warm feeling.  I'm so happy to finally be in a...

Hi to all of my DS friends!   Just a quick note to say hello and let you know I'm thinking of you all.  I'm sending positive energy, thoughts and happy vibes your way!  :-)   I haven't been on...

I SLEPT last night... I slept w/o dreams!  I woke up around 3am, but only to use the bathroom and was able to fall right back to sleep!  Aaahhhhh...... Rest is a GOOD THING!

I'm not sure what I would trade ... but it would be something of significant value.  People always say, "I'd give my left arm for ..."  Would they?  Would they really give their arm for a seat at...
