A Little Treat

Today my husband and I treated ourselves to dinner out at one of our favorite Sushi spots, this small and lovely place called Sankai in Santa Ana. We got to sit at the Sushi bar and that’s always such a treat because I love being able to see the different creations and observe the chefs. I told… Continue reading A Little Treat

Sink or Swim?

What perfect Zelda Wisdom for a brand new day. Although this was Sunday’s wisdom I think it’s perfect for the start of a new week. Often times it’s so much easier to sink in our problems or worries and we forget that we have a choice in everything. Some things are just out of our… Continue reading Sink or Swim?

Acts of Kindness & Love

Lately I have been surprised by so many acts of kindness and love that I’m at a loss for words in expressing my gratitude to God and my family/friends and all I can say is a heartfelt Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I actually heard those 3 simple but significant thank you’s from one of the Pastor’s at church at our… Continue reading Acts of Kindness & Love

Nurturing Oneself

Today’s thoughts were inspired by a blog that I love to follow. I’ve seen people do these “pingbacks” on their posts but I have no clue how to do that (yet) and so instead I’ll post the link in case you want to read where I got my inspiration from. http://mirchichic.wordpress.com/2011/07/21/worth-it/ So going off of the above… Continue reading Nurturing Oneself

Adventures of Biggie the bulldog

Biggie’s (the bulldog) Sexcapade

It turns out our sweet little bulldog has some issues… My mom has this really cute looking stuffed bulldog toy that I’ve been dying to bring home to see if Biggie will maybe cuddle with it, you know, make the toy his buddy to keep him company. So I get home last night (my husband was out) and after… Continue reading Biggie’s (the bulldog) Sexcapade

Forgiveness

Another great little piece of wisdom. I remember a particular class I took at OCC and the instructor saying forgivess isn’t just for the other person, it’s primarily for yourself, because every minute you spend feeding that resentment is time taken away from enjoying other things in your life. That always stayed with me. It isn’t always easy… Continue reading Forgiveness

Tender Words

I liked this Zelda Wisdom from a few days ago and thought we could all benefit from this and be more conscience of our words in our day to day interactions. This reminds me of another phrase my husband shared with me once. My memory is so bad though, I can’t remember if he said it was a phrase in… Continue reading Tender Words

Did I Fall?

Those were the first words out of my mouth as I found myself laying on the cool wet grass and hearing my husband gently say “It’s okay sweetie”… One of the first things I noticed when I woke up yesterday morning was what a beautiful day it was going to be. Although the plantation shutters in our… Continue reading Did I Fall?

Being Thankful and Aware

A couple of days ago I made a reference on my post about being thankful for every one of my blessings and I decided to keep this topic for another post because I was about to get very much off topic from what I had been writing that day. When I was writing down those… Continue reading Being Thankful and Aware
