I remember watching this soap back in the 80’s and loved that there was a character named Jennifer. I also remember Kim Delaney being on All My Children, playing a character named Jenny. I loved being home from school to catch all the good TV. From game shows to talk shows and my soaps I watched from 12:30-4:00 on ABC and then the Oprah Winfrey show would come on. If we did have DVR back then, I maybe would have never left my room. I was a TV lover. Now, I’m so picky. I am on the internet a lot though and can waste a lot of time when I research something. I fall down the rabbit hole of google and time flies.<\/p>\n
The difference is that I get to control what I search, versus watching a soap that pulled you into drama. I will admit to watching the Real Houewives, but I am not a drama junkie. I used to be. I am a peace seeker now…<\/p>\n
Oh, the glamorous life…I was trying to finish this blog yesterday, but the baby threw up and life got crazy.\u00a0 When a kid is sick, we stop everything.\u00a0 She’s fine today.\u00a0 Thank God.<\/p>\n
I’m designing a program and working on the finishing touches for my book \u00a0Sexpot With Stretch Marks<\/em> to come out January 8th, and doing a bazillion other things while raising five kids.\u00a0 As a work at home as blogger\/writer\/entrepreneur and more, I am 24\/7.\u00a0 Lesson here is we must have time to play.\u00a0 I don’t know what the point I was going to make yesterday except to cherish all of the days of our lives.\u00a0 I have the busy disease and need to learn to not volunteer to do things or to say no more often…or yes to only\u00a0the right things.\u00a0 Good news is the holidays force me to focus on the important things with the kids and make lots of memories.\u00a0 As I was\u00a0typing this, I had to stop, throw on my referee jersey because my seven year came into the room crying because my four year old bit him for changing the channel.\u00a0 Sometimes I live in chaos, so I do cherish the yummy, holiday moments as well as the everyday hugs and smiles, of course.\u00a0 I make life look easy at times in blogging and on social media I suppose, because I focus on the positive when I am writing.\u00a0 It’s hard to do all the things I do sometimes.\u00a0 Scheduling in some special family time and some special me<\/strong> time this week.<\/p>\n Maybe we will talk about adding another family tradition this year to the Holiday season, which will be from Thanksgiving until the kids go back after Christmas break.\u00a0 My eighteenth wedding anniversary is on January 4th and my book come about the 8th.\u00a0 2015 is gonna rock!\u00a0 Going to not set resolutions but something like blisslutions.\u00a0 Maybe bliss will be the theme of the whole new year.\u00a0 Makes me think of Edie Weinstein, my fellow Beliefnet blogger.\u00a0 Check out her blog, The Bliss Blog.\u00a0 We all need those reminders to follow your bliss.<\/p>\n As Joseph Campbell said: All the days of our lives…we should follow our bliss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I remember watching this soap back in the 80’s and loved that there was a character named Jennifer.
