Today, Anna is a beautiful young talented woman, pampering women while [...]

I have filled my water and warmed my tea. [...]

Making Dreams Reality

Yesterday, I was at a training day for my Trump business, and the afternoon was spent creating dream boards.  Our leader gave us the instructions not to judge which pictures and words drew out attention, and not to glue anything down until we had a whole hour to cut out pictures.  When an hour went [...]

Staying in Rhythm

Even though I am at home in front of my computer, I am still sitting on the coast of Maine, watching my family throw skippers into the sea, and soaking in the waves.  I am walking a stone barrier to a light house.  I am climbing 1300 feet to see a spectacular view. I am [...]
