Pretty In Pink... Perfect In Paisley!

 It is Sunday. I have a few hours before I leave the house. Writing keeps me on top of thoughts, momentive efforts, and creative endeavors, and it releases some of the noise that filters through my mind. This morning, I sat at my sewing machine cutting and stitching for work Christmas gifts. Small trinkets for my appreciation of the jobs they do for me!!!! {Besides it keeps me off of my phone. The overload of information is too much on most days} While I am concentrating on stitches and combining fabrics, I am going over in my head, the materials needed for my Life Coaching classes. To be cohesive in matters is so imperative for my students to understand when we are discussing certain areas in their life. As I have stated on numerous occasions, it's the relationship house we discuss the most with money and finances following a close 2nd. I remind we are products of our environments and what we have witnessed in our family dynamics growing up plays a huge factor in our adult life. E...

 This week's intentions have gone unfulfilled, not because of lack of effort but due to the inclement weather the bipolar temperatures, and the general public's lack of funds my outside gig fell short by 10 hours. Typically I work 5 shifts a week at one establishment roughly 5-6 hrs a shift that on normal terms I yield about a 100.00 day in tips. My 6th shift at another gig one night a week when needed usually funds a walking stipend of 125-250.00 depending on the event. Last month 2 events were canceled it's the nature of the beast. The stretching and rendering of these tils make my world go around. I have lived a life like this for 30 years. It is what I have done to raise kids, own a home and maintain a vehicle up until this year! I have one young adult still at home. I really do not ever see that changing.  Although he is a very independent and a good working kid, his 2 current jobs do not pay enough for him to live elsewhere. If he wanted to move out, it would be his c...

 It really does not have to make sense to anyone but yourself when it comes to bettering your life towards abundance and financial freedom/ease. It probably doesn't look like anything to someone who can not see beyond the weekly paycheck they hustle for and the job that has ruined their mental state. As I have stated before, the mother of necessity is ingenuity. If you have no desire or skill to achieve personal greatness through another vessel, another way to do things and break away from the norm of society, you will die depleted and emotionally devastated because not one person on their deathbed says, if I could have just earned more! If I could have had just one more paycheck... it could have saved my life! No one!!!!!! Something that dawned on me yesterday, as I sat at my sewing machine finishing up a dog coat for my older dog. Fact: Hobbies can be monetized. It is the simple and narrow-minded that can not see this concept. It is usually the critic that has no raw talent or an...
