Start by doing what’s necessary, then do what’s possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible. St. Francis of Assisi Hey, Lovelies. Sometimes what you need to do doesn’t feel good. Or it feels unfamiliar, all wrong, and way out of your comfort zone. It can often involve not just effort, but sacrifice. While everyone else is taking things easy, while […]

So let me bring these […]
Taking a Dose of my Own Medicine
“Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine.” ~ Lord Byron It’s ironic that the day after posting about my progress yesterday I found myself back in herxing land.
