Monday Morning Motivation – The Hardest Part Of Being Self-Employed

I can't believe it's October. I know it's already the second week of the month, but I just can't believe it. 2012 has flown by (I'm pretty sure I said that about 2011, and 2010, and 2009), but it's something about this year that feels unreal. Maybe it's because I'm nearing TWO YEARS of being self-employed and let me tell you, I can't believe I made it this long. My family is not just surviving but … [Continue reading...]

{Monday Morning Motivation} Patience Is A Virtue

I'm talking to you about patience today. What is interesting is that I recorded this video right before I got the news about (possibly) not being able to graduate in December.

I've been packing snacks and lunches ahead of time, trying to exercise more to get some of my bedroom mojo back, and spending way too much time on Pinterest trying to find cute crafts to do with the … [Continue reading...]

Monday Morning Motivation: Finish What You Start

Today is the first day of my last semester of school. Probably ever. While I might go back and get a PhD, your girl is done with school for the time being. It feels good to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I remember last summer, when I was dreading my second year of graduate school and I was overwhelmed. I sat in the backyard and watched my kids play. I called my sister and started to … [Continue reading...]

Monday Morning Inspiration: Who Are You Besides A Mom?

My mother is one of the most caring women I know. She gives and gives and gives of herself without complaint and has done so my whole life. For the past nine years, she has worked two jobs, sleeping less than four hours a day, to help provide for our family. She has given her all to be a great mother. But now that we are all out of the house for the most part, she is still in hardcore "mom" … [Continue reading...]
