Breaking Out of the Safe Space

Over the years, I knew what breaking out of the comfort zone was because I was married to a risk-taker kind-of-guy. Some risks paid off and some didn’t, but it was the two of us, so it made an “It Takes Two” mindset for stepping out and going for it. We were big thinkers and…

“THE END — And They Lived Happily Ever After”

Uncategorized

That’s the big finale of most Disney movies and so it was for us. Our Disney journey came to an end last night, and of course we will live happily ever after….well, once we cross over to heaven, that is. But for now, we’ll carry so many precious memories from 10 years ago (yesterday morning…

Low Profile, Low Pressure, High Impact

Uncategorized

Those were my husband’s life statement words that were full of wisdom. He realized the pressure that can come from those high profile individuals who expose themselves to public opinion and scrutiny. Though he spoke publicly to many various audiences in business and ministry, he was most pleased to nudge others to the places of…

A Day Filled With Imagination and Kodak Moments

Uncategorized

Epcot is one of those great Disney parks where the imagination can run wild….rather, drive wild…literally. The first attraction we enjoyed yesterday at Epcot was the “The Test Track” where we were able to design a virtual concept vehicle and then go for a high-octane, simulated drive that went through rough terrain with obstacles along…

Navigating the Journey is Worth it!

Uncategorized

As strategic as you can be on a trip through the mazes, long walking stretches between one ride or experience to the next, being in your spot for the parade and fireworks and the shows as well as determining Fast Pass versus Stand By can be almost mind-boggling. Believe me, showing up with no plan…

Eating Humble Pie a Slice at a Time

Uncategorized

Yesterday was a big day for Lexi and I as we were flying to Orlando to meet up with her Mom, Dad and Payton who had been in Charlotte, NC for the weekend. On the way to the airport, we were boasting about being such seasoned travelers – that to fly in an airplane was…

The Happiest Place on Earth

Uncategorized

Disney World — it’s supposed to be the happiest place on earth — but I guess it depends on who’s saying it and feeling it. That’s where the Wallace’s and I are heading today. I know it’s a stretch to think I would be interrupting my Lenten “desert” and solemnity for going to that fantasy/magical/wonder/pixie…

March On

Uncategorized

I know DSW Shoes was making a play on words with their email advertisement yesterday. After all, we are in the month of MARCH and it’s time to MARCH ON. Here are lines from their ad: *****OK, IT’S TIME: TIME TO FINALLY REALIZE “I WILL” WALKS ALL OVER “I CAN’T.” *****IT’S TIME: TO CONFRONT EACH…

The Divine Rearranger

Uncategorized

You’ve probably heard about those designers that go into a home, take all the existing furnishings and décor items and simply rearrange it all and, whoa la – the overall look is more welcoming, open, spacious and less cluttered. One piece of furniture can be moved to an entirely different location and that piece suddenly…

Centered AND Bordered

Uncategorized

We were huge fans of putting together jigsaw puzzles. It started when the kids were little with those easy-to-do wooden puzzles. Putting a jigsaw puzzle together at Christmas was one of our family traditions. The box top would be in a prominent place where ALL EYES could see it, and, strategically, we’d get the border…
