The Ordinary Matters : Energy

Archive for the ‘Energy’ Category. Laquo; Older Entries. What Are You Shopping For? Tuesday, February 26th, 2013. One of my favorite things and biggest stress relievers is spending an hour perusing the aisles of TJ Maxx. It’s a rare place where you can pick up a new whisk, a 24-inch statue of a wildhorse, and a new pair of pajama pants that you feel speak especially to you. (Plus, each item is usually a bargain, so how much better could it get, right? What aisle are you in this week? PS I subbed Diet Dr&...

Laquo; Get Busy #193. What Are You Shopping For? Two Words for Less Stress During the Holidays #194. The holidays are upon us … hey, how did that happen? With all of the good cheer, fun, and food comes a pesky little thing known as HOLIDAY STRESS. I can already feel it creeping up on me, can you? The pressure to shop, wrap, bake, and produce a magical and meaningful holiday starts even before the month of December begins. Well, for me a simple little holiday mantra works wonders. Here are some good words...

Laquo; Ch.ch.ch.ch…changes #192. Two Words for Less Stress During the Holidays #194. We put plenty of things through the dryer here (Kleenex, stickers, gum, m&m’s, old movie tickets, lip gloss, and the occasional five dollar bill), but this was the first appearance of His Lord and Savior. But that’s how it is. God (ok, in this case his only begotten Son, Jesus) just shows up when we least expect him, and sometimes when we most need him. This kind of busyness is business as usual for most women. Throw...

Laquo; The Loop #196. They say time flies when you’re having fun, and for the last few years I’ve been on the super-sonic, break the sound barrier version of that expression. I’m amazed when I look back through. To see how little I’ve posted since 2010. Let’s just say that more than a few things have changed around here (including my eyesight, my coolness level, and the newly noticed phenomenon that I actually pay attention to those commercials on the radio where they sell stuff to relieve joint pain).

The Ordinary Matters : Belly Laughs
http://www.theordinarymatters.com/my_weblog/belly-laughs
Archive for the ‘Belly Laughs’ Category. Wednesday, October 29th, 2008. So the other day I’m driving home from another semi-great (ok, average) meal produced by me with the help of O’Charley’s. (I said produced not made . Big difference. . . ) My son starts clapping to the latest #1 song on Top 20. Stop clapping, I shout over the noise of the radio. Why? Quirky now and then. Can’t we all relate to the realness of said shows? I recently read the book. You’re Lucky You’re Funny. Things about them that coul...

Laquo; What Are You Shopping For? I’m going to let you in on a little secret. There have been plenty of times when I feel like I’m doing it ALL WRONG. Yep, I’ve been known to go toe to toe with a little thing that can drive a grown woman crazy … it’s called SELF DOUBT. Most of us have a self-doubt loop that plays inside our heads pretty much on a regular basis. And if yours is anything like mine, it isn’t very warm, fuzzy or friendly. Here are just a few things that my loop has been known to repeat:.

The Ordinary Matters : Easy
http://www.theordinarymatters.com/my_weblog/easy
Archive for the ‘Easy’ Category. Wednesday, August 18th, 2010. If you know me, you know I have an affinity for freshly sharpened pencils. It’s one of my quirks that I’ve learned to celebrate. The other day, I discovered another simple pleasure dishtowels. (And no, it’s not because it’s the end of summer, and I’m beginning to go temporarily insane with the 24/7 lifestyle we’re leading.). Some order when I open that drawer in my kitchen. That highlights how what we see, hear, and smell each day affects our...
