Lately I have been eating in a way that makes me feel good. Doing yoga, which I love, and getting good quality sleep. So when I started to fall into a depression spiral I was very confused. My body didn’t feel depressed. I wasn’t tired, lethargic, or physically apathetic. Emotionally and mentally I wanted to […]

What is Your Time Worth?

My cats are a year old and vicious hunters. They have brought home insects, birds, garden snakes, and lizards. Lots and lots of lizards. Small baby lizards, long brightly colored lizards, and fat horned lizards. Some are still alive and tormented as my cats play with them. The kids and I do our best to […]
