Today is one of those “I need my tiara” days. What is an “I need a tiara” kind of day? It’s one of those days when I’m overwhelmed by the multitude of things I have to do. I feel I’m being attacked from so many different sides, I cannot focus. I cannot think straight.…
This was created by Teresa Robertson. I am sharing it here with her permission. Stripping (used with the author’s permission) I’ve been stripping. Yes, stripping. And sanding. (What did you THINK I meant?) I had five layers of paint to remove! First, I tried a heat gun. It’s like a hair dryer on steroids. I heated…
I glanced at my shampoo bottle while washing my hair this morning. The directions read “lather, rinse, repeat”. As I thought on this my literal mind said, ‘there is no escape clause’. How many times do I lather, rinse, repeat? Thinking on the escape clause I was reminded of posts and stories from friends who…
I dared you to D*R*E*A*M and asked you to join on the journey. Today we conclude our discussion of the word DREAM with the letter M – MAKE IT SO. As a Star Trek fan, I am intrigued at the crew discussions. The Captain asks for suggestions, all give their input, a plan is made.…
As we continue looking at the word DREAM we come to the letter A. A is for ASK. ASK for help. Sure, they may say no, and they have that right. Just as you do. You have the right to say no as well. Sometimes by asking we may find the other person doesn’t even…
Your focus determines your destination. What are you focusing on? In episode 3 of “Tea Time with TerryAnn” we look at the letter E in the word DREAM. Expect. Expect to Succeed. If your focus determines your destination and you constantly focus on the negative, that is the direction you will go. Even with the…
In my first attempt at sitting in front of the video camera, I DARED you to take a moment to dream. Moving on to the letter R in DREAM I ask you to REJECT. Reject those negative voices in your head. Reject the negative influence around you. If there were no obstacles in the way of…
Several years ago I read Debbie Macomber’s book “One Perfect Word” and, following her example, started to declared a ‘word of the year’ for myself. I failed to do so in 2016, and felt incomplete. Last year the word was ‘committed’. I committed to stepping out, to moving forward, to following the path God laid…
I love to use word pictures to try to describe what is happening in my mind’s eye. I can see something but it is fuzzy, and unclear. By speaking out the picture to someone it becomes clearer. Focus becomes sharper. I can see it and now I can choose how to act on it. One…
I did it again. She called with a last minute cancellation asking me to please take over the project. Through gritted teeth with a forced smile I said it would be no problem. Afterward I slammed a few cabinet doors, spoke some words I wouldn’t want my daughter to hear, and then started to readjust…
