One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Another reason to imbibe...


In case you needed another excuse to drink red wine, access the link below. It contains an article that says that drinking red wine while eating meat might offset the potentially unhealthy aspects of eating meat.

You will love this article. It absolutely celebrates indulgence. It is especially encouraging when being Vegan is often presented as being close to being godliness. All of the Vegans that I know are so serious. However, those red meat eaters that I know are all about having a satisfying dining experience. And those drinkers that I know, me included, are a really good time. So, reading a health article that says you can eat a steak so long as you're drinking red wine at the same time seems like advice that I can embrace with gusto!

I just can't wait until they come out with an article that discusses the benefits of shooting vodka with sushi. I tend to mix my indulgence with a touch of healthy. I also have a great time. If you choose sashimi instead of the rolls you have a low carb meal. You get slightly tipsy that way, but you don't pack on the pounds. I didn't even need an article to teach me that!:-)
