Keeping Your Calm

I lost my calm this weekend. Along with it, my Coach wristlet, license, credit card, camera and favorite lip gloss vanished into thin air. In a time when identity theft and other unsavory crimes are abundant, there’s a nakedness in losing important bits of plastic. I’m heading to the DMV today…

Looking Back to Look Forward

The middle of 2010 has come and gone, yet I’m finding it hard to believe that half the year is behind us. For weeks, I’ve been referring to February like it wasn’t that long ago—and I’m still finding myself writing 2009 at the top of my journal.

Wishing You a Happy Monday

Welcome to another fabulous Monday. My goal for this week is to dwell in the beauty of the present. I have a tendency to focus on to-do lists and plans—which means that I sometimes forget to enjoy my life for what it is at this moment…

A Little About Kaileen Elise

Can you believe that this little journey began just 5 months ago? We were strangers then, but I like to think that we’re friends now. Friends who were put on this earth to connect, create and enjoy life as side-by-side companions. Since we’re starting a fresh decade and new year, I thought I would share some bits of me that you might not know…

2010: A Year of Intention & Resolve

I may be a bit tardy in presenting my resolutions, but I figure there’s still plenty of time with 350-ish days left in 2010. As I planned my intentions for the year, I thought of ways to begin living my ideal life. An ordinary, yet completely fantastic, everyday existence. Keeping in mind that the journey is much more important than the destination, this year I resolve to…
