Snakes in a House

Oh lordy ~ what a day. Last night my om called me, in a full blown panic attack. She was sitting on her screened in porch when she heard the slither of a very large snake across the ceiling and the vent above her head. Let me just say at this point, my mom is categorically TERRIFIED, PETRIFIED, PHOBIC of snakes. She has been battling snakes outside for a while now. She claims to have seen a 7 foot snake in the yard recently. Quite frankly, I’m surprised she hasn’t moved yet, that’s how scared she is of snakes. So now she hears this snake slithering around above her head. She then realized that there is a heating vent in the wall of the living room that has never gotten repaired after a bout of remodeling. Now she’s CERTAIN the snake is...

Hanna’s First Fishing Trip

What you have to know about our “family” before I tell you this story is my husband and I love to fish, but we are TERRIBLE at it! lol.

Multitasking is BS

It’s really interesting how the world works sometimes. The other day my husband and I were in the car listening ot some radio show, and they were talking about multitasking, and whether it was really possible. He said yes, and I said at the very bottom line no. You can not give 100% of yourself to 2 things at the same time. With that said, let me tell you I’m the QUEEN of doing a million things at once. I mean, hello, I work from home, and have a (now) 3 year old daughter. You have to be able to do more than 1 thing at a time if you’re going to keep it together. I’m also the kind of person that values go go go!!!! Get it done, get it done right, get it done right the first time. I was rudely awakened by my amazing EFT coach that not...
