Sunshine in Seattle!
The sun is shining here today in the Seattle area and it’s even suppose to get to 70 degrees-unusual for us this time of the year! Must say, I’m smiling! Love that sunshine. It’s amazing how it influences how I feel as I look out my window from my desk and see the blue sky, how green all the new foliage looks and how inviting bright and sunny is! More sunshine and brightness to share! Last month, I shared with you that my husband and I are going to Best Friends’ Animal Sanctuary to volunteer…
Spring has sprung! Mother Nature showing her intentions!
Spring has officially sprung, but we’re definitely getting mixed messages from mother Nature, here in the Northwest.

But then, as I changed my focus, I saw the daffodils blooming their bright yellow faces at me, the tips of green starting to unfurl on the trees, and even some early blooming rhodies are showing their pretty colors around the various neighborhoods. I’m reminded that Spring really is…

Every time we tolerate something, we deplete the energy we could be using to make desired changes or to simply experience joy in our life. It’s like living with a low-grade fever or pain that somehow dulls our experience and…
De-Clutter, Stress and tolerations!
Small signs of spring are beginning to show here in the Northwest. WooHoo! The days are getting longer, the shoots of the crocuses and daffodils are pushing their way up out of the ground, and the huge wall of white heather in my back yard is starting to slowly bloom into its magnificence. I’m loving it! The energy of the coming of spring feels light and inviting! Speaking of light and inviting, I want to share with you a project I just completed. My administration office had gotten very very cluttered. …
Love from your heart!
