Everyone has emotions that need to be expressed in a healthy and safe way. Kids too! And they love fart analogies.
Sometimes talking to a therapist can help. Think of me as a curly haired Immodium / Pepto Bismal.

I truly teach you how to "fart" and am trained to listen to it.

Thank you for the freedom I experience daily.

As children grow, parenting responsibilities shift — from nurturer to guide, from coach to quiet supporter. What role are you taking in your child’s life at this moment?

Monday Motivation!!!

This weekend, I finally tackled a project I’d avoided since we moved to the Boundary: going through all of mine and my husbands clothing - all seasons!

Here’s what surprised me: once I started, the dread evaporated. I got into a rhythm. Of course, playing music at full tilt helped. When I finished, I felt lighter, proud, and oddly energized. That feeling wasn’t an accident—it’s our brain’s "motivation loop" doing its job.

We often wait to “feel motivated” before we act. But the brain also works in the other direction. Your brain releases dopamine when you make progress toward a meaningful goal. Dopamine tags the action as valuable and says, “Let’s do that again.”

A feedback loop forms:
Doing → Dopamine → Desire → Doing

Over time, this loop recalibrates the brain’s attentional filter and begins prioritizing cues related to progress and completion. Your nervous system learns, “hard + finished” = safety + reward.

How to use this this week

Pick one small task you’ve been avoiding. Do it to completion (even if imperfect).
Notice the shift—pride, ease, momentum.
Repeat tomorrow with a tiny “level up.”
That’s mastery, one notch at a time.

The price of loving someone and someone loving us, will always be change. Sadly, grief can be a side effect of losing love that can last.
If you can't understand why someone is grieving so much, for so long, then consider yourself fortunate that you don't understand.

We all have crows pecking at our lives and waiting for us to trip. Be an eagle!

The only bird that dares to attack an eagle, is a crow and the eagle never fights back! The crow is the only bird bold enough to sit on the eagle's back and peck at its neck. Relentless. Annoying.

But the eagle, it stays calm. The eagle doesn't flap. Doesn't fight. Doesn't waste energy. It does one thing: It rises. The higher the eagle soars, the thinner the air becomes. The crow? It can't handle the altitude.

Eventually, the crow gasps. Loses strength, and falls off. Not because the eagle attacked, but because the eagle ascended.

Moral: Let the crows talk. Let them peck. You don't have to respond. Just keep going higher. They can't follow you forever. Your growth will suffocate their noise. So don't engage. Elevate.
