February 23rd is my daughter's birthday, and I can't say enough about how spectacular I think she is. She amazes me!
You are a force to be reckoned with Boo. I hope you have a fabulous birthday month!!! Who else feels a month is much better than just a day?
Above are just a few of my favorite photos of this beautiful person I am so lucky to have as my daughter. The bottom left photo is a throwback to the teenager days and one of my favorite moments in life. The others are from the gym - #StrongWomen! 💪 |

Check out this vintage card! ⬆️
Valentine’s Day can be celebrated in many ways. I personally don't celebrate the day itself as much as I try to show those I care about all year long how much they mean to me. As a child, however, I thought getting candy and cards all day at school was a great day!
For fun, I did a little search on Wikipedia for this day and liked the history of this section.
"Saint Valentine additions to the legend have better related it to the theme of love: tradition maintains that Saint Valentine performed weddings for Christian soldiers who were forbidden to marry by the Roman emperor; and an 18th-century embellishment to the legend claims he wrote the jailer's daughter a letter signed "Your Valentine" as a farewell before his execution." |

February Business Shoutout!
 Since September 19th last year I have been working with a health coach. A big motivator and supporter in my life has been my beautiful daughter I mentioned above. I want to be healthy and happy to be able to handle all her sassiness she gives me on a daily basis!
Choosing to work with a health coach was not a decision I made lightly. Most of you know me for my strength of personality (sassy, bossy, demanding) and yes it runs in the family. Well, imagine having to be the person who has to tell me (or suggest highly) what I should or should not be eating and doing with my life. Rachel is more than that though! She is my coach, my ally, my supporter, a listener, a mentor, and more. Through her help these past months I have lost weight & inches, learned to eat better, and still enjoy food, and next, I can enjoy Valentine’s Day!
If you want to learn more:
Rachel offers a free discovery call (just text her at 503-319-3410), and if you mention my name, she’ll even give you a discount on her coaching! 😉
Her signature program is a 6-month transformation, but she also offers customized 3- or 4-month options for those who aren’t quite ready for the full commitment.
Rachel also has a ton of free resources on her site, including her blog and a whole page of health & wellness freebies—definitely worth checking out!

If you decide to work with her, tell her I sent you—she’ll take great care of you! 😊

Pet Corner
- Gantu & Stout -
My pups are definitely benefiting from all my self-care walks lol. I seem to have created a second set of coaches because they have started motivating me with whining or funny growl sounds at about 9 PM if we haven't gone for a walk. Gantu sounds like a mini Chewbacca.
