What am I up to today? Today started out a little groggy and wondering why the dog sleeps on my side of the bed EVERY NIGHT. Other points to worry about than Charlie.

Everything in life has a purpose. What is your purpose? Have you found it yet or are you still looking? Seriously, take time to explore why you are here and then pursue it with passion and excitement. Without a purpose you will get sidetracked and wander from your path and feel frustrated you have not gotten anywhere.
Do What You Love: When you are ‘on purpose’ you become a magnet for people, resources and opportunities to…

Your Attitude is everything! If you have guilt on your mind it will take a toll on your body and mind.
Guilt is the little monkey that sits on every mother's back. No matter what, it whispers in your ears: not doing enough, not doing it well, not doing it right. Here is a comforting thing to know about mom guilt: it doesn't necessarily mean you're doing anything "wrong."
Most moms too often feel guilty about things they can't… Continue

Putting together a sensational outfit for your holiday uniform. Did I say uniform? Yes, I did! I don't always abide by the uniform because I dress according to mood but generally have a small selection that I choose from for holiday set aside anyway. For some people a go-to uniform or two is just the ticket for the hectic schedules they keep with cocktail parties, dinners and holiday events throughout the next couple of months. Very economical…

Maybe you tell yourself you'll be happy when you can wear a size 10. Maybe you'll be happy when you make just a little more money. Or, when you find your life partner. You might not come right out and tell yourself that your happiness is dependent upon these things, but deep down you know it's true.
I am all too familiar with this game. Have you ever noticed that you can never win? For me, once I had
attained a goal I had set, like…

How you act after you fall determines your fate. Sooner or later you will eat something you feel is "wrong." Maybe you'll eat something unplanned at a party, or drive through to get an old favorite when you're in a hurry. After a stumble, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start over--without looking back and without guilt.
You can waste a lot of energy feeling angry and guilty for not being perfect. Understand that these cravings and…

1.
Learn to air your feelings. Remember, expressed feelings are changed feelings.

3.
Form a small group of people you can call on for emotional support.
Agree to "be there" for each other. Take turns talking and listening. Start a BTBS Chapter!
4.
