Wow, where DID the last few days go? I’ve been M-I-A! It has been busy with new coaching clients, new business consulting clients, well… lots of new clients, including our Small Business, Big Success program (I added my Practice Builder for the last six months of the year to really TURBO CHARGE the rest of 2009).
Yes, I’ve been busy, but I LOVE to write to all of you. I feel like it is my way to connect one-to-one (yes, I can feel you) even though it is me shooting off stuff into the void.
To all of you who have emailed – I want you to know that I read each one of your emails and I ALWAYS pray for you and ask for God’s messengers to assist you on your path. Thank you for sharing your world with me – I feel grateful to walk with you.
In less than a week, it is amazing how many insights a person can have, and I want to share ALL of them with you. I am constantly humbled by how elegant and how phenomenal our world and universe is. There truly is order in the cosmos.
Be sure to work with your heavenly team to enrich your own life and the life of others.
Okay, so I can’t resist cute, sweet graphics. had to share this Firefly Frenzy sale circular – it is so cute!
I went to Jo-Ann’s last Saturday to get some candles (remember my anniversary post where I decided to get candles here instead of trekking halfway across Texas to get my favs?) Anyway, I love Jo-Ann’s for many reasons, but two come to mind: Number ONE – $1 aisle of all things yummy and glittery and papery, and Number TWO – coupons and sales! If you sign-up for Jo-Ann’s email coupons (and sometimes you can get the circular in the store too), you will get 40% off and 50% off coupons each week for one regularly priced item – SA-WEET!
For those of you who don’t know, Jo-Ann’s is a hobby/craft/fabric store with everything glittery, shimmery and scrumptious for making wonderful things!
Oh, and I love buying craft books by my FAVORITE artists, people like Kelly Rae Roberts – LOVE HER, and you can use the coupons for books, too. Last week, they moved the books so not sure if they are still carrying as many, but they still have the Stampington & Company magazines, and such.
Today is our NINTH anniversary. Happy Anniversary to us! Mark and I celebrated yesterday while Chance had a play date at his cousins’ house.
Here’s how our celebration went.
We left Mark’s brother’s house. We drove down the road. We talked about all the movies out right now, considered the 95 degree heat, decided that the MOST IMPORTANT thing is that we were hungry so we filtered through what sounded good to eat. Settled on Corner Bakery. Ate a delicious, yummy lunch that was pure heaven. I had a chicken salad sandwich that tasted so good. Mark had a turkey sandwich that tasted like a chef went in and whipped it up himself. Thank you Corner Bakery!
We talked about going to a shop over in Arlington (between Dallas and Ft. Worth for those of you outside Dallas) to get these candles I absolutely LOVE, but after considering gas prices and conservation, opted against it. I’ll drop by when I’m over there visiting friends.
We then started talking about what we wanted to feel… cooler (remember, it is 95 degrees outside and sunny), comfortable (yesterday, that meant intimate and not around a lot of people), and present (enjoying each other one-to-one).
We decided we would run a quick errand, and then head home to spend time together. It was bliss…six hours of just doing whatever we wanted to do, in the way we wanted to do it, with joy and love.
It was one of the best anniversaries ever.

Chance and I were in my office yesterday working on his homework, and I started to erase one of his answers that he had somewhat erased and somewhat didn’t. All of a sudden this brand new pencil’s eraser flew off, and I exclaimed, “What is that all about?”
Chance calmly said, “Well, you know it is because those are just too unstable.”
I cracked up laughing so hard that I had tears rolling down my face. He loves to make Mark and me laugh, though he often doesn’t know exactly what made us laugh to begin with. Chance usually joins in and laughs right along with us, and today… unstable… coming from an 8 year old cracked me up to the point of instability!
When I think of laughing, I think of Mark because he has a way of making both Chance and me laugh so hard that we can’t stop laughing. A few days ago, Mark told us stories about people he used to train when he was a fitness trainer, and we were laughing so hard that two little girls sitting near us joined in with the contagious laughter.
And speaking of that… it reminds me of another time a few days before we left for vacation when Mark and I were sitting at Spoons in McKinney, Texas having lunch and he made me laugh so hard, everyone in the place seemed to be smiling at us.
There’s something so healing about laughing. Is it time to laugh out loud?

Looking for a Dream Life:
A few days ago, Mark and I took my sleigh in for a check-up. I noticed this very slight vibration in the steering wheel and had no idea what it could be.
As we stood there at Sears, a young couple caught my attention. They had three children of their own, and one of the youngsters looked to be at least 12, so I knew they couldn’t be that young. I kept looking over at them, almost like I was glued energetically to them. All of a sudden, in my mind I saw them as little kids in adult clothes.
I know I fell into their energy, and I could feel their fear… money, tight, car repairs, *gulp*…and kids need shoes, clothes, sports, summer camp.
It made me think about a time about a year ago when everywhere I went all I saw were children – the inner child of every person was all I could see. It was quite unnerving, and I just wanted it to stop. And it finally did.
So here I am, standing in the auto bay at Sears experiencing this again, and I am wondering what I need to know. Why are you here?
This is what I learned…
We are all children. We are loved just like these children are loved by their parents, and the children’s children are loved, and on and on it goes in an infinite loop of love.
When we go into fear it is because we feel we need to know the answer – that we must need to have the answer. When we try to know this with our little finite minds, it will never work. It will never feel good. We will feel limited because we are using that part of us that is limited. When we open up to the greater part of who we are – that which is infinite – then we will experience infinite everything – infinite love, infinite resources, infinite support.
And, when we begin to be the children of God that we truly are, we will be like children again…trusting, loving, playing…infinitely provided for in all that we are.
I love you… no matter where you are, no matter what you have done, no matter how you feel about yourself… I love you. Pass the love on…
