Let’s talk about the dirty S word.Nope, not that one. This one: stress. Not too long ago, I wrote about spring cleaning the clutter in our minds. And here I am again, because apparently, I’m still finding dusty corners I missed. Letting go isn’t a one-time thing. Especially when it comes to stress. So I’m…

Pay it Forward Thankful Thursday 🤝

Firstly, a prayer for the families of those lost in the Texas flood. The souls lost, I believe, are well on their way to glory. But the pain left behind is real, and I hope each grieving heart finds comfort, strength, and support in the days ahead. 🙏 In times like these, I’m reminded how…

First off, wishing  you a great 4th of July tomorrow! This country has its flaws, but I’m still grateful everyday to live here and call it home. 🇺🇸 Fifty-three years in this country has made for a lot of snapshots, and I had a little quiet time this week to go through some old photos. …

Ay, someone please give me a good shove into the other line! The one with the fast pass to peace. I love it when I stumble on a picture that speaks volumes, and this one’s a gem. The Complaints window has a line out the door, while the Gratitude window? Not a soul in sight….

Can you feel the heat?  Summer’s official start date is tomorrow, pero Miami clearly missed that memo—it’s been summer since about March. 🥵  Whether it’s pool days, cortadito mornings, or golden-hour walks by the water, Florida summer just hits different. (And by “hits,” I mean it feels like a sauna every time you open your…

A friend asked me recently if I ever feel pressure to keep up my weekly Thankful Thursdays posts. My answer to her was, yes, sometimes I do. Especially when I’m on on one of those “road less traveled” trips, and I’m scrambling for signal. That’s when I panic a little, since I don’t want to…

We all have those moments when a piece of advice really sticks with us. For me, those words came from my parents. Mami and Papi were like my personal Lucy Van Pelt—straightforward and no-nonsense with their advice, but definitely in a kinder way, LOL. One of the most powerful things my mom ever said to…

An “Epic” ride with the Best Crew! Ray and I are beyond proud of all the time we’ve spent with Lauren and Danny. From toddlers to their twenties, we made sure to travel as a family—not because we had to (huge shoutout to the abuelas, tíos, and tías who were always there to help), but…

Ahhh, to have the energy I had at 30 (even 40) or…to be nearing retirement, with wisdom instead of speed. What say you? Ray and I were talking about this just the other night, fresh off our vacation, as we mentally prepared to swap mountain views for emails. Let me tell you—coming back to work…

Just because we’re still off the beaten path doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten what day it is—it’s Thankful Thursday, and gratitude keeps finding its way in out here in the wild, Wild West.  Thankfully, gratitude doesn’t need a schedule or a signal. It just needs a moment. And we’ve had plenty of those. Thank You, Lord….
