If you’re wondering if your most ridiculous thought or idea won’t work, just take a look at companies like this.

Molded, wobbly, glow in the dark jelly. For an actual business. (Go ahead, read that line again. Yes, I am shaking my head and laughing too. Awesome.)

I’m going to go hang out in a kindergarten class to get the next big idea and give these guys a run for their money. 

Yeah, that’s a lot of dough. You could make an extra mortgage payment or something and save a tree or two. (I buy jars of Nutella to eat by the spoonful with my savings.)

I am a proud and daily “dumpster diver” for the papers I read. You should try it. Saving loot and the environment? That sure starts the day off right along with that cup of joe.

1.) To dance and skip about in play; to frolic

2.) A skipping or leaping about in frolic

Frolic. 

How can you not love that word? 

This was part of a speech I listened to at a lunch I went to last year. It’s pretty simple, but so smart.

I’ve been lucky enough to travel and move all over the place for the past several years. The people and experiences I have had in search of the “perfect place” are irreplaceable. I hate to admit though, I have learned there isn’t one. Nowhere is perfect all the time. One of the best lessons I have found to be true though, is that if you live a place that you love, it’s such a big part of being happy. There is something to be said for waking up on a free day, seeing exactly what you want to do, then being able to do it right where you are. I have lived and been in places where I have woken up on those free days, shrugged my shoulders and hit the snooze button. That is a total bummer. It is not a bummer however, to live in that spot where you want to jump out of bed to take advantage of what’s all around you. 

Me? Thankfully I’m not hitting the snooze button anymore.

The spot that you love living might change as your life does. It might stay the same forever. What works for one person doesn’t necessarily work for another. Either way, you owe it to yourself to be able to “hit the” whatever- on those completely free days or after work when you want to. 

Here’s a fun little site to play around on if you have a few minutes.

Call me when you’re ready to pack the U-Haul. I’ll help.
