The Friday Random Thoughts Roundup
I haven’t been blogging much lately, and I’m feeling badly about it. I’ve been incredibly busy with two kids in high school, teaching at the university, volunteering for things, and serving on committees, in addition to actually trying to fit my new mentality of health and fitness into my daily regime. I wish I could write an insightful, meaningful post right now, but all I have time for is a quick roundup of random thoughts and things I want to share with you. So here it goes… I finally got around to watching the movie Me Before You last weekend which was based on the book by JoJo Moyes. I…

Random Thoughts on a Gloomy Day
When I put a call for help out there last night—WHAT SHOULD I BLOG ABOUT?—I got an answer from a friend of mine. She suggested that I write down random thoughts over the course of 24 hours.

My thoughts are below, but I also created a mind map–creativity and thoughts in action–and included it here. Golfer Ben Crenshaw’s wife looks amazing…Jordan Spieth’s poise and command was incredible to watch at this year’s Masters…I’m proud of my son for making the…

Random Thoughts for Today
Saturdays…I find myself doing chores, running errands, cleaning, and doing projects around the house. It’s also a time where my thoughts run wild. I think about aging a lot, love, friends, family and life in general. These quotes are all memorable, and I like to consider them one cupcake at a time.

Five Random Thoughts on Weddings, Fastballs, Brownies, Curses and Queen
Random Thought #1–Weddings Bring Out The Best in People Last Sunday, my husband and I traveled to Norfolk, Virginia, for our friends’ wedding. Despite the pouring rain and flooding in Norfolk, the wedding in a tent at the Hermitage Museum was a lovely end to the weekend. It’s always heartwarming to see two people come together and forge a new life as a couple. There is a renewed sense of hope, love hangs in the air, and guests can’t help but wear smiles on their faces as they wish for nothing but happiness for the bride and groom. Over the course of a few hours, I enjoyed meeting the…
