We Celebrate You!
Independence Day means so much to us.
As a woman-owned business, we see this day as a way to celebrate ladies everywhere. Moms, daughters, aunts, caretakers, friends, or wives -- the roles of women in our world are so important. We celebrate ALL the independent women out there that give more than they take and foster success in others at their own expense. For men, we know Independence Day may mean something different to you, but your roles are no less significant than any others. Fathers, sons, protectors, brothers, or husbands -- your hard work build families and your encouraging voices have led many to "try it again". Your support make those falls when learning to ride a bike less painful. We celebrate your strength and your willpower to support all of us. Last but not least, we celebrate ALL OF OUR MILITARY -- the currently enlisted, the veterans, and all who have lost their lives in the pursuit of FREEDOM. Freedom is not easy; there is no quantity that could measure the value of your service. THANK YOU! Happy Independence Day! Happy Task Service

Don't Settle
Feeling great is not just about what you think and eat; it is also about what you do and how often you do it. My weakness is exercise. I often find my exercise time getting shorter and shorter. I'm always searching for a quick app to help me burn a few calories. My daily plan lacks commitment and priority. Recently, I was looking at some products that Beachbody offers. There is so much to choose from. Please take a look and let me know if you are willing to commit to a program. Let's get moving together!
There is no doubt in my mind that if chocolate was a man, he would be my soulmate. I rely on chocolate when I'm feeling down. I rely on chocolate when I'm celebrating. No matter what event or happening, it seems chocolate is necessary. Whether I'm gifting myself with a basket or just looking for a snack, I can always count on chocolate to fulfill my utmost cravings. So, can chocolate serve a greater purpose? Well, my friends at Chococraft surely think so. They have very little limits on what they print on their chocolates. You can send messages, note cards, thank yous and even pictures on blocks of delicious chocolate. Although they do not currently ship to the United States, it is so awesome to take a look at what they can do. Along with the "eye candy" their website provides, they have published some interesting information about chocolate. Take a look at their article about the BENEFITS, FACTS & FIGURES of CHOCOLATE. Hey, you never know - one day they may start shipping to the US, and we will totally love them for it. Have a SWEET rest of the week and enjoy!

Not as easy as you thinkI am definitely no expert when it comes to forgiveness. When someone betrays you, whether it is a friend, lover, or family member, it hurts deeply. People commonly say, "You have to forgive and forget". No one really explains how to do that. Likewise, depending on what you need to forgive, forgiving someone may have additional challenges. Here are two important components of forgiveness to keep in mind: #1 Forgiveness is for you and not for the person you are forgiving. You can spend eternity trying to figure out why a person did something awful to you. Harking back to the action and studying the "WHY" do not foster healing. Healing is exactly what needs to happen when you are wounded. It is okay to be selfish in making a plan to forgive. Focus on what you need in order to overcome. If you need time, take time. If you want a person to correct an action, ask them to fix it. There are no bounds to helping your heart and feelings heal. You have to do what you got to do. #2 Recall, Reflect, Rebuild. Again, saying that you are going to forgive someone is so much easier than the action or consequently, the PROCESS. Here is what life has taught me. Recall - How was your relationship with this person before the betrayal? You will need to decide if the relationship is worth initiating the process of forgiveness for. If you are willing to make the investment, go for it. Reflect - How can you make the relationship work? Bite your tongue. Stay away from bashing or negativity. Focus on moving forward and not reliving the past. Rebuild - Construct new and strong bonds. Spend time getting to know each other all over again, and most importantly communicate often. Again, I am not an expert on relationships - I am just a southern girl of a MAMA that raised nine kids with the motto -- When the sun rises, no matter how difficult it is -- start a new day!

Do you have enough sunshine for the rain? We all have our ups and downs in life, but you have to think about what you can do in the ups that may help you survive the downs. When things are going well, how do you reach out and pull others up? Looking for opportunities to help when you can is important. Not only does it make you feel good, it sets a powerful example. When those that you help see you going through rainy days, they maybe able to offer you an unexpected "umbrella". I want to challenge everyone to spread a little sunshine to a stranger or someone you know. Take a look at this video.
Remember their Service!In memory of all of our service men and women who lost their lives in the quest for Freedom all around the world, I salute you! Patriotism is not something to do, but it is a way of life. Our country was built on unity, freedom, and acceptance of others. Let us remember those that gave their lives so we can make progress towards keeping America what it is and growing it to be even better.
