Happy Thanksgiving...

Happy Thanksgiving…

Can you believe it Thanksgiving is here already? It is amazing that once we pass the 4th of July time increases. Hold on before we know it we will be saying Happy New Years!

This is what was out our window in the RV this morning and it is cold…burrrr!
There is a dusting of snow and lots of clouds, we are hoping for more snow.

As we reflect on today, a day of focused gratitude what are you thankful for? I am thankful for:
My wonderful husband & best friend
My 4 beautiful dogs, my kids
The opportunities available each day should I chose to embrace them
My friends dear to me
Those of you that I have been able to touch your life for the better

I leave you with three questions today as you enjoy the turkey and gravy:

1. What are you thankful for?
2. What are you going to do to make 2009 a phenomenal year?
3. How may I help you achieve your dreams?

A Refreshing Rain...

A Refreshing Rain…

Yes we are waiting with great excitement the coming storm, hoping for snow. We had a little rain this morning and as I walked outside and took a deep breath and it is so clean and fresh right now. The chill in the air and leaves dropping really bring home the feeling of fall, finally!

As we rapidly approach Thanksgiving and the end of 2008, we each could benefit from taking a deep breath, taking in the beauty and begin the process of preparing for an exciting 2009 that is only 37 days away. I want to leave you with a few questions to ponder over the next few weeks:

· What have I learned in 2008?
· What would I change?
· Where do I want to go in 2009?

Calm During Panic...

Calm during panic…

What a beautiful day it is today, better than yesterday. I was here in the RV while my husband drove down the hill to the store. I was enjoying live here in Oak Glen watching the dogs run and play in our spot when all of a sudden things changed. Fire! Yes a fire started here in the camp ground. For those who have never been to Oak Glen, it is a rural mountain area, a lot of brush and trees. First thought panic! Fire! Now what? Tried to call my husband on the cell and of course no service…now what? I took a deep breath put the dogs in the RV and watched. If the fire got closer then pack up the RV and try to drive it out. Thank God it did not get to that point, the fire crew up here is amazing, they put it out and cleared the area in what seemed minutes. An hour later park was back to normal, my husband was back and the park was a buzz with stories. One lady panicked and drove their RV out, her husband came back to the RV gone…imagine that panic. They finally reconnected and all is fine.

So how do you respond to panic, turmoil and trials? Do you act or react? I encourage you as we approach Thanksgiving to stay calm and relax, don’t be the lady who drives off, be the lady who took a deep breath and kept functioning.

How do you handle panic, trouble, trials?

A New Attitude...

A New Attitude…

Woke up this morning in beautiful Oak Glen and as I looked around at God’s wonder my eyes were opened. I look at the apple trees loosing their leaves, the oaks & maples turning colors and a crisp 40 degrees in the air. What an amazing site and feeling to breathe in and relax, to really breathe in, deep breaths of clean air.

This is the way we should start each day, especially with the holiday’s rapidly approaching us…starting this week with Thanksgiving. What if you woke up and took a deep breath and started the day with a positive attitude. Placed your feet on the floor asking the question, what amazing opportunity will come my way today?

What amazing opportunity are you seeking or willing to enter your life today?
