Adventures In Green Juice – Part 1

By lisahoward On December 5, 2011 · 5 Comments

Every morning I use this…

to make this…

It is oh so tasty…

and good for me…

BUT.

That’s a lot of produce and a lot of work for a small glass of juice….

and produce is expensive…

Don’t You Just Hate It When…

By lisahoward On November 7, 2011 · 8 Comments

…you feel stupid?

I’m not sure it happens to everyone. But it happens to me.

Often.

Too often.

Today I share Stupid Moment #1:

Obviously I’m not the multi-tasker I once was. During a recent early morning phone conversation with a friend, I was attempting to gather the trash on my way out the door [...]

Doing a Drive By

By lisahoward On October 28, 2011 · 3 Comments

Seeing as life is sucking up all my time, I thought it best to stop in with a quick hello rather than wait for time to write a proper post. Life has become the whirlwind it once was and I’m doing my best impersonation of a sprinter in my efforts to keep up. That is [...]

Photography 101

By lisahoward On October 18, 2011 · 3 Comments

Last night I had the opportunity to use my camera in something other than auto mode… something I’ve rarely done. Seems my mother has been promoting herself and one of her friend’s decorating skills for publication. Both have filled their homes with primitive antiques. Both have magazine-worthy homes.

An author whose focus is on highlighting [...]

Stirring Things Up – The Season Premiere

By lisahoward On October 12, 2011 · 6 Comments

Here we go folks! We are back to our regularly scheduled program. I’m referring to the “show” that is my life. Although we recently took a break from broadcasting the shenanigans of our mixed up, messed up leading lady (that would be me), we are now back in action!

Last year our season finale took [...]

A Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Moment

By lisahoward On September 27, 2011 · 8 Comments

Last week I had my “last” appointment with my oncologist. Technically, it was the last appointment related to my year long course of treatment. Semi-annual follow up appointments are my new norm. Due to the nature of my cancer, I don’t think I will officially be free of Dr. “W” until…like…well…never. Yet when I left [...]

When a 1/2-Inch Isn’t Exactly a 1/2-Inch

By lisahoward On September 19, 2011 · 7 Comments

So…

They say hair grows at the rate of a 1/2-inch per month. While not considered a substantial amount, when comparing “no hair” to a 1/2-inch of hair, I’ll take what I can get and be happy for it.

Before losing my hair and many times after, I did numerous google searches on hair growth. [...]

Faith Defined

By lisahoward On September 15, 2011 · 2 Comments

Faith can be a difficult thing to define. Then again, it can be quite simple. In a nutshell, faith is nothing more than a belief in something. Yet for me, it goes far beyond that. Faith is what gets me through each day. It is the guiding light that fills all the dark times. It [...]

A Resurrection

By lisahoward On September 12, 2011 · 6 Comments

Hello, dear blog friends! I’m back and oh how I’ve missed you! Life is finally returning to a somewhat normal state…depending on how you define normal…so I felt it high time I jump back on the blogging bus.

As you would assume, so much has happened during my time of silence. Much of it would [...]

Does It Bear Repeating???

By lisahoward On May 6, 2011 · 8 Comments

It’s Friday! My most favorite work day! Given the warmer temperatures and the fact it is a celebration Sunday, I’m especially looking forward to this weekend. Anyone else out there catch yourself wishing your life away by counting the minutes until the weekend begins? I’m working hard at not doing that…not wishing away a single [...]
