What do you do when you see the orange cones?

What do you do when you see the orange cones?

A joke here in South Dakota is that in the summer the state bird is the Crane. As in ‘construction crane’. It is so true! We need to utilize the nice summer days to get the bulk of construction completed. In particular, the roads. It seems everywhere I go in Sioux Falls or on the Interstate there are […]

Turn around

Turn around

I popped on Facebook and I saw the memories option on my home page. I love that feature of Facebook. As I was scrolling through the past posts I saw this picture I took 5 years ago. 5 years! I feel like I’ve blinked and the time has passed. This picture makes me smile and […]

Essentialism, please

Essentialism, please

I have read and then re-read the book Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown Greg says the definition of essentialism is less but better. I love that! He also talks about how the word priority was singular for 500 years until we pluralized it in the early 1900’s. He says, Illogically, we reasoned that by changing the word we could bend […]

Let’s go old school

Let’s go old school

With all the electronic and battery-operated toys out there I find it quite amazing to see children play with what I call ‘old school’ toys. Do you remember Play-Doh?! Do you remember how fun it was? It’s all about creativity with no electronic mechanism to help you. Last Saturday was Alexander’s 3rd birthday and he received a […]

Just a little help might be nice

Just a little help might be nice

Addilynn and Alexander were thrilled when their parents got them a fabulous swing set with a climbing wall! What could be better? I know in a matter of weeks Alexander will be doing this by himself. But, for right now, he needs a little help. Have you ever felt that way in your life or business? […]

Look up

Look up

  I had a coaching client tell me yesterday she was going to put her head down (figuratively) and focus on a project. This made perfect sense as she was wanting to avoid distractions. After thinking about it, though, I told her to look up instead. Just the term ‘put my head down’ causes a […]

Post-It Notes, really?!

Post-It Notes, really?!

Have you ever planned what you wanted to do that day only to find at the end of the day you did everything BUT what you had planned? I was visiting my amazing friend, Theresa Rose, in Minneapolis. She showed me a unique way to know what you want to do each day and stay […]

Have you said these words lately?

Have you said these words lately?

On Sunday my husband, Bruce, and daughter, Abigail, visited mom. She was having a day where she was feeling exhausted and wasn’t her usual bright shiny self.  But, when she realized it we us, she said, “You are here again? I am so blessed. You always do extra.” How often when someone sees you they see […]

All is well

All is well

Have you ever wanted to do something that you knew would be great – but you were scared? But, you really wanted to do it? That was Addilynn on Easter when we were visiting my mom. Uncle Sean challenged her to jump to him. Addilynn wasn’t so sure at first. But, she trusted Sean and jumped […]

There are people and then there are PEOPLE

There are people and then there are PEOPLE

I met my friend, Kris, at Starbucks recently. I was outside when she pulled up and she parked in front of the store next to Starbucks. I remembered from previous visits that there were BIG signs saying only patrons of that store could park in those spots. I walked over to Kris to tell her about […]
