Where Did 18 Years Go? Happy Birthday Connor!

Last updated on: April 8, 2015 at 4:58 am By Kristy Robinett

Just a little over a week after Easter in 1997, on April 8th, I was told to go to the hospital, and that would be the birthday for our beautiful baby boy. I had been having contractions on and off for a few weeks, but every time I went to the hospital, they only sent me home because I wasn’t progressing. Even though I had a C-section with Micaela, I had hoped to try natural. Well, I wasn’t progressing because... Read more

Are You an Energy Invader?

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 8:57 am By Kristy Robinett

Even with the society that we live in that urges us to detail our every movement in front of millions of strangers, I do tend to be a private person. Not that I am hiding some deep, dirty secret, and maybe it is just the Scorpio trait in me to keep some things a bit of a mystery, but I don’t believe that everybody needs to know everything about everybody. I also believe it is a two way street. Now,... Read more

Dear Cinderella…

Last updated on: March 30, 2015 at 6:58 pm By Kristy Robinett

A couple weeks ago my husband and friends decided to embrace our inner child by seeing Cinderella. I admit that my husband moaned a bit, but I convinced him after showing him that the movie theater by us had reclining seats and if anything he’d get in a comfortable nap (he can sleep anywhere)! I really hadn’t anticipated a so-called kid’s movie would affect me as much as it did, and I sat there, with tears streaming down my face,... Read more

March On – Nothing Here to See

Last updated on: March 13, 2015 at 5:07 am By Kristy Robinett

It was a couple weeks ago and we had received a good few inches of snow on top of the already several inches on the ground. I had to grab a couple things from the grocery store and ran out for just a minute. As I parked, I saw a lady tumble down in the median, a top a bunch of snow (where there would normally be grass or woodchips). And she just sat there. Concerned that she hurt herself,... Read more

Smudging Away Negative Energy

Last updated on: March 3, 2015 at 1:03 pm By Kristy Robinett

Smudging with sage (I prefer white sage) is a simple and powerful way in which to remove negative energy from the area. Place a few leaves in a fire proof container or a albacore shell, and light the leaves or light the bundle. The flame should go out in a short time and the sage will begin to smolder. Fan the smoke with your hand or feather. Say a blessing of protection, or prayer, as you walk around. Fan the... Read more

We All Need Help Sometime

Last updated on: February 16, 2015 at 9:37 am By Kristy Robinett

The little girl was about three years old and was screaming in the middle of Target at her mother, who looked to be humiliated. Her face blushed, not from the cold, but from her daughter’s tantrum. “I can do it myself. I don’t need any help!” the small, but powerhouse girl screamed, whipping her brown hair around with attitude. The girl’s coat was on upside down and inside out and she was having a problem getting it off in order... Read more

Snowed In

Last updated on: February 2, 2015 at 1:21 pm By Kristy Robinett

Instead of attending a bustling Super Bowl party I sat on my couch next to the flickering fireplace that was making haunting shadows on my cheerfully painted yellow walls. Sipping a cup of hot tea, I watched the snow fall fast and furious and sighed in relief that my son’s job called him off, which meant there was nowhere to go. Since I had earlier made ribs, sloppy Joe’s and a potato casserole, I also had nothing pressing to do;... Read more

9 Years

Last updated on: January 30, 2015 at 5:06 am By Kristy Robinett

Today, January 30th, marks nine years since my mom crossed over. I still remember receiving that early morning phone call to get to the hospital. I had just pulled into the driveway of my then job. I ran up three flights of stairs to tell my supervisor that I was needed at the hospital, only to run down the three flights and back to my car. The drive to the hospital was mostly a blur. I remember speeding down Michigan... Read more
