Silver Thread
I am cleaning out my home office tonight. I have a crazy stack of magazines going all the way back to December that I have not touched. In the midst of my piles I took some time to read. I read an article on Richard Branson, love him. If you have been living under a…
Ring Around the Collar
I was driving to pick up my children from their music lessons and I was not having a good day. Work had just been overwhelming that day and I was talking to my higher power. I asked for guidance and asked for help sorting out some of the craziness in my life. I was…
