Why Your Weirdness is Wonderful (Giveaway!)

You might have noticed… I’m kind of a weirdo.

Seriously. I talk a lot. I am very picky about my writing pens (the inkier the better!) When doing a workout, I have this weird desire to end on a round number, usually to the nearest quarter mile.

Yep. I’m weird. And I hope you don’t take offense to this statement– but I bet you are little weird too.

But that is a good thing… Because dear friend, your Weirdness is Wonderful! [Read more…]

Embrace your Inner Brahma

Being unique is awesome.

You might have already picked up on the fact that I personally am a little, um, “different” than most. Ok, maybe even weird. Perhaps odd is a good word? How about eclectic? I don’t know a whole lot of small-town southeast Kansas girls who graduated with an animal science degree that now work at a church only after becoming a certified auctioneer and graduating citizen’s police academy just because. RANDOM.   I  say this to point out that while yes, my personality is sometimes a little bizarre, it really makes for a good time (not to mention some great conversation pieces.) [Read more…]
