Inspired

I’ve told you about my goals for 2012—now I want to tell you about my inspirations. I look to these people when I’m drawing a blank or feeling discouraged about where I’m going or what I’m doing in life. I hope these wonderful, talented people are just as inspiring to you as they are to [...]

2012: The Plan

2012: The Plan I’ve got a good feeling about 2012. As I sat in the living room New Year’s Day, watching Homeland (which is SO GOOD) with my husband and our friends, I made out a list of things I want to accomplish this year – and I really believe I’m going to check off [...]

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, friends! “Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.” -Benjamin Franklin I don’t know about you, but I’ve got a good feeling about this year. Plans to change and to grow and to make it happen. I can’t [...]

CHRISTMAS Ukulele Wednesday! White Christmas

I’m back! And so is Ukulele Wednesday! I’m feeling the Christmas Spirit, so I decided to record a Christmas Classic! I hope you like my version of “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas.”

Counting My Blessings

When I’m worried and I can’t sleep, I count my blessings instead of sheep. Then I fall asleep counting my blessings.  I planned to write this yesterday – but I found myself all wrapped up in laughing and eating and telling stories and laughing some more, and I didn’t want to stop to write. So [...]

Thankful Sunday (It Still Counts!)

Thankful Thursday slipped right by me this week, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to tell you all how thankful I am, because one of the things I am MOST thankful for this week is… You. Thank YOU for reading this blog and following along on this little journey of mine. I was overwhelmed [...]

My name is Corley. And I am a writer.

I am still alive! This week has been crazy in the absolute best way. I preach a lot about writing, following your dreams, doing what you love, making it happen…and now, I can truthfully say that I practice what I preach. And THAT is something that I’m pretty proud of. Starting in December, I’m going [...]

Thankful Thursday

I have a great family. My little life is not perfect – we all have our problems, our worries, our stresses. But look at this crew: I know that it’s part of my job to think that my husband is the best husband…but he IS. He works so hard and he takes good care of [...]

Through

I needed this today. Maybe you do, too. Put your head down. Power through your slumps. And whatever you are doing, do your best. I had a crazy idea the other day – one that I was completely unsure of and slightly embarrassed about, mainly because it’s an idea to do something that no one [...]

Bag Your Pardon

Some people buy shoes. Some buy watches. Some buy wallets or jewelry or hats. I buy bags. When I was 13, I bought backpacks. In college, I bought messenger bags. Now, it’s purses and computer bags. And there are few places better to shop for cute computer bags than Etsy. First, how sweet are these [...]
