I leave you this weekend with a little food for thought. When was the last time you put your emotional needs first? Not treated yourself with your favorite dinner, or splurged and bought that new bag… but communicated with your family something that was important to you. Or told your...

I am attempting to do the un-thinkable this Fall. I’m working part time, working for myself, PLUS taking three ECE classes. (One on-line and two in Davis.) I happen to have the same teacher for my two face-to-face classes and I adore her. She’s funny, interesting, kind, thought...

Whenever I think to myself, “WOW! This is really a transitional period in life right now”, something will come up to show me that it was really nothing. That was just life… THIS is a transition.
This Tuesday will be my husband’s last day at his current job. He...

While pondering the un-attainable concept of attempting to keep the scales of my life in balance, I was struck with an epiphany. Women don’t need video games. Know why? Because our whole lives are one big Zelda quest, one huge Tetris (make everything fit), one big magic show. We multi task...

Really, I mean it. You can’t do EVERYTHING! I know you THINK you can, you are a mom after all. I’m not saying there is anything you CAN’T do; I’m saying you need to prioritize.
A few times a year, I do a little “life” spring cleaning. Check in with...

Mothers Day is a little bit of a rough time for me. All the flowers, bright pink cards, moms with their kids. Not because I’ve had the loss of a child (I can’t even fathom that experience), or because I don’t get appreciated or spoiled by my family (because I do), but because...

OK so i do not consider myself a battered ex wife or anything like that but i was very afraid of my ex for many years. You would think that now after winning custody and him in jail my fear would diminish. Nope...
My ex wrote to my children and since I get the mail I read it first. I did it...

So it was my birthday on Saturday and I decided to go away for a girls weekend. So my friend and I went down to Colusa Casino on Saturday and stayed the night and then Sunday my mom and step-sister came down to meet us and play high stakes bingo...(which btw I won $600) so it was a great time. My...

My life, (like yours I’m sure) is indeed a teeter totter. I must confess, I’m not very good at keeping a balance. In fact, I’m more of a trebuchet. I can focus and deal with one big task at a time, and I over-react to everything. If you think this sounds like an exhausting way...

When this was emailed to me, I feared it was to the tune of The Thong Song. Luckily, it's to William Tell Overture. Pretty funny.

Well, with only two days left in January, I'm happy to share that I've lost 12lbs. It's not what the scale says that makes me proud though, it's the changes I've made (for good).
Here's a list of some accomplishments I've made this month (as they relate to my health goals).
-Eating much more...

Yesterday was my son's 14th birthday. I honestly don't know where the time went. On one hand, it seems like he was just born a few years ago. I remember every moment as if it were just a few breaths away. On the other hand, I can't (and don't want to) remember a time in my life when he wasn't...

Last night I was watching a Discovery Health Channel show about obesity in America. They were saying that having “fat genes” is like a loaded gun, then our culture and environment is like pulling the trigger. If you have a “fat family” it means your cave-man ancestors were...
