What was once a challenge to do something new each day to get over one horrible year...is now going on its third year! Come with me on the journey to break old habits, make new connections and live life while pushing myself out of my comfort zone each and every day.

A Day of Corny Jokes
Holidays are hard for most. We miss people we love. We eat too much, drink too much and feel badly about it afterwards. We spend more than we should. But we usually have a blast in the process. This year the holidays were a series of awesome events that I lined up to make up for years past. So when great moments after wonderful dinners after sweet birthdays all pass it leaves you with a sense of wahhhh waaaaa waaaaaaaa. People were having trouble getting out of bed. The weather seemed just too cold to go out into. The day just too hard to start. I was lucky enough to have one day before work in which to catch up on cleaning and getting prepped for the new year in front of me but I was saddened by so many dreary updates and texts. I tried to bring a little levity into this world and spent the day posting cornball jokes. They were a discovery in our NY poppers and a great source of hilarity just hours before as Leigh Ann read them all to me. Maybe some spirits had been raising my spirits but they were funny to me just the same. Every few hours I posted another. People thanked me for making it all a little bit lighter. The days eventually do come to an end...even the sad or heavy or tragic ones and we get to start all over in the morning. Find a way to lighten someone's rough day and see how good it makes you feel in return!
