Best Birfday EVAR

It is true, my birfday was yesterday. A turkey born on turkey day. Every so often, I get to enjoy my birthday with my family when it lands on Thanksgiving, kind of a cool added bonus gift. I don't recall ever getting so many birthday wishes from friends before on my birthday, so thanks to each of you who made my day special. I also got to enjoy some of dkny's incredible pecan pie. I didn't eat sweets/treats for the last two months. That was a challenge for me, but I did it, and I mean that because I LOVE sweets. But yesterday, I had a piece of pecan pie for breakfast. And it was awesome. And week two of couch to 5k was easier today, and it was SO nice out, I got to run outside-that's a first. Also got to eat great food, enjoy a great margarita, play Wii golf, watch Christmas Vacation, and fall asleep on the floor. Thanks to all who made my birfday special. Much love.

Big Difference.

I heard my superstar say this to the girls this week: "Discipline sounds like something that is bad, right? But really, it isn't. It means to push yourself to doing something. Like journalling, reading your bible, spending time with God. That is a spiritual discipline. See how that isn't a bad thing?" For nearly four years now (you can get the full story if you look back to 2007 postings), I have certainly elevated my game in the area of spiritual disciplines. Reading the bible more than I ever did before, truly engaging with what God's desire is for my life, not just when it is convenient, trying to spend time being still and listening to what God has to say to me, and one thing I never really understood why superstar did it - journalling. I really started engaging in my morning "Java with Jesus" when I began to work for my company in the D. I would get up early to drive down Alter Road to the little park where the lake turns into the D river.

My Communication Arsenal

Let’s be honest, we all have moments of glory when we are communicating with others, and moments of incredible fall on your face failure.   I for one have always thought I was a relatively good communicator, and my perspective was that I could effectively communicate and engage with a variety of people from different cultures, backgrounds, ethnicity, upbringing, or what have you.   I have been a teacher, coach, assistant principal, principal, leadership development consultant, school improvement coach/facilitator, and done these things in a variety of areas in suburbia, rural districts, and even in Detroit, Flint, and Brooklyn.   But today, I came across this word arsenal .   I felt as if I was walking down the street of life and a sign with this word was in my path and I walked my face right into it – you know the videos you see online when someone doesn’t see the sign before they run their head into it?   And it was painful.   The pain came from the realization that I have an
