Force of Hobbit: June 2006
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 30, 2006. Been away this week, at the beach with my family. It has been a wonderful week spent mostly staring blankly at the ocean, taking long walks on the beach, giggling with my family, and reading books. I will be 'back to regular' soon. In the meantime - I am thankful to be away. Posted by Force of Hobbit at 4:13 AM. Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Having a really tough day. So I needed some guidance - a friend of mine once shared this with me:. 25 Lessons for Life. By Marian Wright Edelman.

Force of Hobbit: July 2006
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 21, 2006. Happiness, Discipline, and Self-awareness. These three things go hand in hand. Reminding myself of this, and actually shifting gears to get to a better state of mind takes work and discipline. With every challenge of difficulty, drama or negativity comes the opportunity to practice the discipline of being mindful about the present, and about things that are truly important. I am still learning how to do this, and when I can pull it off - I am better off for it. I took an hour to wa...

Force of Hobbit: August 2005
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 29, 2005. The search is on - but where do I begin? According to everything I am reading, I am supposed to really take a look at 'who I am' in order to be successful at this journey. I find doing that to be really difficult because I have spent years working on and refining who I am supposed to be. Does that make any sense? I guess a good start would be to think about things that really move me - things that I really love. Here goes:. I love to listen to my daughter sing when she doesn't re...

Force of Hobbit: Bloggers Block
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2006/10/bloggers-block.html
Thursday, October 05, 2006. It's been pretty difficult to blog lately - mostly because of what I have been writing about on my other blog. I have been exchanging emails with Kevin Dwyer's sister about her two younger brothers who took their own lives when they were just kids. I have decided to form a team to walk in the upcoming " Out of the Darkness. Posted by Force of Hobbit at 6:47 AM. Virginia, United States. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us".

Force of Hobbit: September 2006
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 25, 2006. The day that my Dad moved from England to America - he was 18. The day that I had a plane ticket to go visit my mother, but she died a month earlier. The day that Big David and I decided to get married. The day the little Dave was born. Posted by Force of Hobbit at 12:48 PM. Sunday, September 24, 2006. There are so many things I am trying to do, or want to do - but it seems like I never REALLY get there! On the other hand, I do so many things that life is NEVER boring! Then, I...

Force of Hobbit: May 2006
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Grateful Wednesday: The gift that my Mother gave me. Today would have been my Mother's 70th birthday. She was 48 when she took her own life, and I was 21. She made life extra special for me every chance she had, celebrating milestones and achievements, decorating our home with a magical flare, or even teaching me lessons in her own special way when I chose the wrong path. She was my Mother - she was beautiful and magical. I am eternally grateful to have known her. Hopefully I can...

Force of Hobbit: October 2005
http://forceofhobbit.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 28, 2005. A favorite escape of mine is only an hour or so from my home. In the foothills of the mountains there are several local vineyards. We bring a blanket, some fresh fruit and salads, open up a bottle of wine and lay on the hills under the trees. Even the hour drive is worth it -. And then you find the hidden entrance:. Once you arrive, you can smell the serenity in the air. Of course I believe that this is truly middle-earth, complete with a party tree,. Tuesday, October 25, 2005.
