My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • If I were to admit that I am stubborn I am sure that no one would try to convince me otherwise. I am indeed stubborn and extremely slow to adapt to change. Spontaneity is not something I value nor ever really want to take on. This does not mean that I am inflexible nor does it mean that I cannot eventually change my mind. I just require time to adjust, adapt and accept.…

  • This week started off well with the gym workouts but doing more yoga teaching made me a bit tired toward the end of the week. Need to perhaps focus on the cardio aspect or just remind myself it is only for 30 minutes – which is not difficult to find the time…. Anyway, it is ok. I am moving each day. 💪🏽😜 Feb 5 Sunday 30′ 3.42km treadmill (walk 1km/run 1km/walk 1.42km) 30…

  • In the midst of trying to schedule in writing time and really making a decision to focus more on my writing as a way of making income so that when we finally move on to another country, I will not be tied to needing a job in a particular location. However, in doing so I start to wonder about my skills because my story-writing days are quite slim as I have hardly completed…

  • When I decided to get married again, I determined that there was absolutely no way that I would consider divorce again. When I set my mind to decisions of such extraordinary importance there is generally nothing to make me waiver from it – no matter how tough things get. In my first marriage, I never considered divorce as an option, but then I believed that he would love and protect me above all…

  • I am having flashbacks to being a kid when everything used to piss me off. I would become angry at anything and everything in a split second. Of course, then I did not understand why this would happen nor having an understanding of triggers, environment and self-control of these responses. As an adult, I can – thankfully – rationalize why I am finding myself with anger 😡management issues. Now, it is just a…

  • One of my running buddies recommended this podcast to me one day as we were sharing our podcast interest. Since I am always looking for a bit of change in my podcasts due to my habitual nature, I thought this one sounded quite interesting. I do not know exactly how to describe it, but the website makes it clearer. Mostly, they discuss social topics that may be related to the business world, self-help,…

  • This weekend was really an excellent weekend all around. I got to relax and enjoy time with friends on top of working, etc. However, the very best part of the weekend was booking my flight ✈️🔜🗾to Japan 🇯🇵in March to see my BFF for two weeks!!! 👏🏽 I am beyond excited and thrilled that I could get the ticket using miles; 👍🏽thus only having to pay about $100 for the ticket! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 We…

  • The other day I was contemplating how to write the stories of my life and how to convey them in such a way that is actually of interest. I mean everyone has life stories and everyone has their own unique experiences, so why would anyone want to read mine?  However, as I listened to a podcast on Insights at the Edge with Tami Simon interviewing Bonnie Badenoch (wrote about this podcast earlier) on…

  • I think that some might be surprised that I have jumped onto a new business venture. Now, I am definitely not one to believe in pyramid scheme marketing or businesses that seem a bit far-fetched or even a hoax. Initially, when I heard about this product, I was a total skeptic. In fact, I mostly just ignored it.  However, in reconnecting with God, I also opened myself up to being more alert to…
