Need Sleep!

Remember I had the allergic reaction to red wine on Sunday? I tried drinking a glass on Monday and had another reaction, so I decided to go a week without before I try again. But, the reason I became a one a day glass of red wine drinker is because I don't sleep well. My glass of wine after dinner relaxed me just enough to allow me to get 6 hours of sleep.

I can never shut down at night. If you only knew how many blogs I wrote in my mind, re-decorated the house, worked on a new business venture along with working on The Shutter Release Event. I thought about  Easter, the weekend, a new car, my mother, and on and on it goes. I'm not sure what time I finally fell asleep, but I woke up with a headache, and now my mind is all over the board. I need my wine!

So to touch on a few of the things that were on mind last night. For one, I didn't realize this weekend is Easter so I have nothing planned, which means we will not be doing anything special. As for my house, I am ready to purge it and become a minimalist.  http://www.becomingminimalist.com/2010/02/02/our-definition-of-minimalism/ The new business venture is being pitched this week, The Shutter Release Event has consumed me because of all the work involved with branding and organizing. The weekend - hoping to get my back fixed so I can quit walking bent to one side and workout again. As for my mother, she's been on my mind quite a bit lately. Maybe it's because I haven't been to the cemetery in awhile, or maybe talking about heaven at church triggered a memory of her asking before she died, where is heaven?





Any ideas on how to fall asleep without a prescription let me know... Happy Thursday!

I shared with you how I had my son leave my home because he's not in a good place right now.  Yesterday he was sitting outside my home when I pulled up.  I asked him why he was here - Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful he's okay but I can't be an enabler.                                                                               He had a couple of reasons why he popped in, but I know the real one is that he thought no one would be home and he was hoping he could get in to eat, crash, and find something to sell at a pawn shop. As horrible as that sounds it's the reality of how a drug addict operates.                                                     ...

Have An Open Heart

As I was sorting through pictures this morning I came across pictures of my seven-year-old granddaughter with girls that she met for the first time on a 2 day stay in Prescott. I was drawn to the smiles on their faces and the love in their eyes. They met, accepted each other, and acted as if they had been lifelong friends. Oh, how I had forgotten about the innocence of a child. The color of skin, the size of a body, the structure of a face does not matter. They are ready to accept and love unconditionally until we and society teach them differently. There was nothing but smiles and laughter as they danced, made beaded jewelry, and ate. They made sure that they all were a part of whatever they were participating in. They cared about each other's feelings and made sure that everyone was having fun and was happy. Why is it that we grow to become so obsessed with appearance and behavior of others that we miss seeing the light or the struggles in others?  We're so q...

Fun At The Duce

The rain didn't stop us from having a great night at The Duce. The food was amazing, the DJ was fun, and I saw a lot of Arizona talent doing karaoke. One of the reasons I chose The Duce is because I love the ambiance. They have it set up with all the things that I grew up with...it's like a big playground for adults. The Duce is filled with ping pong tables, hula hoops, bean bag toss, punching bags, pull up bars, boxing ring, stationary bikes, foosball, karaoke, and a dance floor! There's also a little soda shop area if you want to grab a milk shake, and retail if you want something inspirational or vintage. Imagine a warehouse full of people of all ages having  old school fun.  Although we didn't get to enjoy the patio or order directly off the food truck due to the rain, it was a great night. After last night we decided it would be fun to do a family event there - the grandchildren would have a blast! Thanks again to everyone that came out in the rain, and to ...
