I don't know where you live, but here in the Piedmont of North Carolina we are having a veritable monsoon these past few days. So after sloshing around the rainforest today with my three-year-old, we decided to head back inside and enjoy a cuppa. His choice was white chocolate hot chocolate and this was mine. …

The One Surprising Thing That Boosts Creativity the Most
As I was handed an unexpected work project late last week that required planning blog topics for all of my real estate and vacation rental clients 6 months in advance (and not much time to do it), I started thinking about creativity. And of course, I started worrying. The Creative Dilemma I write multiple blogs every week …

Why You Should Focus on Only One New Goal This New Year
Travel with me to the act of goal setting. When it comes to change, the new calendar year sets the stage for opportunity. It's a logical time to put the past behind and not only look ahead to the future but also to take action today. New Year's resolutions come and go, but how many …

Travel with me to a place of progress! As promised, I'm currently continuing to update and improve this site with the full intention of spending more time here—and hope you will, too.

Travel Wins and Epic Fails
You win some, you lose some. Here are my recent wins and losses during a family road trip.
Traveling light, in theory
This is my goal for an upcoming two-week trip to the Caribbean (yay, yay, yay!) in December. Actually, packing and traveling light has been my goal for every trip I've ever taken thus far in my 42 years of life. Sadly, I've yet to once succeed in this seemingly simple endeavor. Now factor in additional …
Day Trip to Wrightsville Beach, NC
I love taking a day trip. It's like a mini-vacation without all of the preparation and hassle that sometimes comes along with planning a longer trip. A breath of fresh air. New scenery. A break from the same-old, same-old. Yep, that's what it's all about. There's something exciting about not really having a plan, loading …
Not traveling much, but I am cooking…
Oh hey, remember me? Yep, I'm still around. My travels have been limited lately (kids and life's other responsibilities will do that to you sometimes) but I am hoping to change that real soon. In the interim, just wanted to share that I've been working on a new blog about my at-home cooking adventures. It's …
Just Go
It's supposed to be a beautiful couple of days here in North Carolina with temps reaching the mid-70s by tomorrow. Hooray! Spring is flirting with me and I don't mind one bit. I'll definitely be heading outdoors to enjoy as much of it as I can, though it's already mid-Monday and I find myself distracted …
