What’s On Your Mind?
What is the last thing on your mind before you fall asleep? Or when you have a lot of road time, what do you spend most of your time thinking about? The reason I ask is because what people spend time and energy thinking about is usually what they are most passionate about. Yes, weContinue reading “What’s On Your Mind?”
Pile of Problems
Is life getting you down? Do you feel like you have bigger problems than those around you? Consider this… If everyone were to pile all of their problems into the middle of the room, and you could swap yours out, you’ll probably be in a hurry to grab yours back. The grass is ALWAYS greener.

Live-It List Lesson
Last year at this time The Suede Sofa began talking about the “Live-It List” – which is sort of like a bucket list, but with the emphasis on living rather than on dying. Well, 2012 is coming to a close and I’ve been working on my “Live-It List” all year long. In January, I startedContinue reading “Live-It List Lesson”

There are so many times I clean up the toys only to have them scattered around the house an hourContinue reading “They Are Paying Attention!”
{Not There Yet, But Closer}

{100 Zillion}
So, a couple of days ago I told my girls to go upstairs and clean their room and play-area while I cleaned the downstairs.
