Welcome to February! Can you believe that we’re here? Where on earth did January go? Seriously. I’d love to know. How is it possible that this year is starting off at warp speed? Doesn’t it (the speed of the year) begin later? Geesh. I’m baffled by the passage of time right now. Anyhoo, we’re here… Continue reading February Fun Facts

Falling – Victor Kiam
I’ve experienced this Silver Lining all too many times!
Friday's Fixin's…Sort of
Today’s Friday’s Fixin’s is a book recommendation. Recommendation is an understatement. Truth be told, I am actually jumping up and down about this book. As many of you may recall, nutritionist extraordinaire Rachel Beller MS, RD pretty much saved my nutritional life during my treatment. When I was in the bottomless pit of chemo despair, it was Rachel who… Continue reading Friday's Fixin's…Sort of
Valentine's Day Love
For Valentine’s Day (as much as Suddenly Seven, the HOTY and I all love sweets), I am always trying to find goodies that say “I love you” sans the sugar buzz. Recently, I came across this sweet (pun intended) Heart Card gift set from Bailey Doesn’t Bark (an adorable website, by the way!). The Heart… Continue reading Valentine's Day Love

I had no idea – absolutely no idea! – how inspiring and fun this would be! Thank you for sharing your ideas, thoughts and… Continue reading Three Words

Oh my goodness gracious, do I ever have a fun Silver Lining to share with you. I’ve always been a big fan of Kate Spade. She and her company = total cute adorableness. Today a girlfriend sent me a link to one of the most goosebump inspiring necklaces I’ve ever seen. I just had to share it… Continue reading Find the Silver Lining
Finding Your Own Voice
Last week, I went to the Alt Summit in Salt Lake City. It was such a Silver Lining when I finally made it after my detour to Idaho. Phew! The event was fantabulous. I felt like I was able to put my pinky finger on the pulse of what’s happening in the blog world and boy oh… Continue reading Finding Your Own Voice
Caregiving is Universal – Rosalyn Carter
Caring for the Caregiver
In the world of f-bomb cancer and other illnesses, a “Caregiver” is someone who is responsible for attending to the physical, emotional, or financial needs of another person. There are formal and informal caregivers. Formal caregivers are trained professionals paid for their services. Hiring professional caregivers is expensive. Really expensive as a matter of fact.… Continue reading Caring for the Caregiver
Musical Monday: Life is a Highway by Tom Cochran
Life is a Highway is one of my favorite songs to listen to while running. I just love it. The Silver Lining is that it always reminds me of Lightening McQueen in Cars, one of my favorite Silver Lined movies that I watched with Suddenly Seven when I was sick. The lyrics feel really wonderfully symbolic to me, especially… Continue reading Musical Monday: Life is a Highway by Tom Cochran
