Blogging because I want to

“So, why exactly are you writing this blog?”

That was the question my husband asked after reading my birthday tribute to him.

And it’s a legitimate question. This isn’t linked to any website or any other page. I haven’t published the link anywhere, except my resume, which I’m not circulating these days.

So, for the time being, this blog is kind of a private little project I’m creating just for myself.

So, why do it? I blog because I have plans. I have plans to create a coaching practice that will most definitely have a blog on its website. This is a foundational piece that will be ready to drop in when that happens.

I blog because I want to get into the routine of posting regularly.

And most importantly, I blog because I like to write. It’s a form of self-expression that has always appealed to me, and I’ve been told I’m good at it.

I may not have people reading this thing right now, and I may never have a huge following, but I get to do something that I enjoy and that builds a foundation for what I’m planning to create in the future.

How good a reason is that??

Happy Groundhog's Day


February 2 is always an important day for me. Not because it’s Groundhog’s Day, but because it’s my Sweetie’s birthday.

My husband, Don Giberson, pictured at left in a photo taken just last night to promote his business, Dreamcrafters. Don is a combination of nerdy, cute and smart, in a Dr. Oz kind of way. He is a deep thinker, at the forefront in Law of Attraction education that builds upon the ‘get-more-stuff” teaching of The Secret and uses it to discover and live the destiny of the soul. His work is about leading classes, coaching and writing in ways that help people realize their soul-connection with the infinite and live from that place.

In addition to the important, consciousness-raising work he does, Don is my partner in life. He is so loving and supportive of me, even when I’m being a drama queen or a class-A bitch. Amazingly, he always seems to see the best in me. Don takes care of me in little ways like carrying my suitcase, filling my water glass and taking out the garbage, but he also challenges me to be strong and to follow my own wisdom.

I am very blessed to have my own little groundhog living with me 365 days a year Happy birthday, Sweetie!
