Recently I have found a name and a description for the 5 working days of the week. I like the addition to Marilyn’s Way Dance Till You FLY! System. Of course it is always optional and can be used for variety. Why I decided to have some fun names for each day of the working […]
Let’s just say Monday hasn’t gone as planned. Not to worry. ‘Turnaround Tuesday’ is just around the corner. I have been increasing my exercise and now the ole knee is acting up. I am finding trigger points caused by my fibromyalgia everywhere in the right calf of my leg. I have been consulting with Devin Starlanyl and […]
Are you ready for a new dance? Most are this time of year. The dance I will be talking about today is ‘Crisis Cleaning’. The extended family is coming to your home for the holidays. Most of us hold our breath in and afraid to let it out. We seem to panic when company is […]
Every once in awhile something will grab my attention and suck me in from something shared on Facebook. The performance of Garth Brooks in Minneapolis Friday night, November 7th did just that. He is performing the song ‘The Dance’, sees a sign in the crowd that says: CHEMO THIS MORNING, GARTH TONIGHT, ENJOYING THE DANCE. […]

It seems our homes, offices and lives are more cluttered than ever before. A recent UCLA study revealed that American families are overwhelmed by their stuff. Advertisers seem to have sold the idea that our things will save us time and money all while making our lives easier. Instead the truth is our stuff is […]
Are you a SHE? SHE stands for Sidetracked Home Executive in which the ‘Slob Sisters’ coined the phrase. Today many will use this phrase when it comes to explaining different styles of organizing. The first time I heard about a SHE was from Flylady. In fact I am a follower of Flylady. I definitely could […]
I have been fortunate to have a high yield with my green beans from the garden. I did plant a second crop thinking the first one would be gone but it still kept producing. Time to pull out the pressure cooker again and see how many pints I can process. But first I must prepare […]
I love this time of year when I can throw together a fresh vegetable soup that come right out of my garden. I really don’t have a recipe. I just start chopping! There is one thing I do different. In order to enhance the flavor of the soup, I like to dice up onions, peppers, […]
