Focus, Yep. I gotta have it. This is something I sort of figured out a little at a time over the years. If I don’t have a project or something goal-like in my life, my brain gets aimless and opens up to anyone’s suggestions. Focus is my friend. That is a little funny coming fromContinue reading “I Need A Focus”

Yoga Brain
I found yoga late. Or maybe it found me. Before I tried yoga I ran marathons. I did Pilates and kick boxing. I went to a gym. I thought yoga was silly and would be a waste of my workout time. Plus I thought it was weird and controversial, which were two things I didn’tContinue reading “Yoga Brain”
Bionic Woman, The Brady Bunch
What TV shows did you watch as a kid? I watched so much 70s and 80s tv! My brother wonders if that’s why our parents never wanted to go anywhere. We watched tv every night. Name a show! I bet we watched it! We weren’t the family from Matilda, but we sure did watch tvContinue reading “Bionic Woman, The Brady Bunch”
Mornings
What’s your favorite time of day? Morning is my favorite. I love getting up and out of the house early. The earlier the better. I’m what people call a morning person. Many of my artist friends are night owls. As artists we need quiet undesignated hours to do art. If I get up and outContinue reading “Mornings”
Cookies, Chocolate and Carbonara, Hard to Choose Just One
What’s your favorite recipe? I have a few actually. My favorites always bring up memories. I love to cook, but, rarely actually follow a recipe, so the ones I follow are important.

The Tough
When the going gets tough, the tough get going—-to figure out their options. Life can include some challenges. Weather, people, situations, not everything can be positive and supportive. I have learned that I have the option to choose a response or not to. I also have response options. If I get mad, I can chooseContinue reading “The Tough”
You Can Still Change Your Mind. Thanks, Tom
Tom Petty may have been the first to tell me this. He also told me I didn’t have “to live like a refuge” or “back down”. Back then, I don’t think I thought it was optional. Changing my mind was, for too many reasons, impossible Okay, I take that back. It could be messy andContinue reading “You Can Still Change Your Mind. Thanks, Tom”
Grand
Where did your name come from? My name is Andrea J’Neene Team. My grandfather called me Andie. He was the only one who got away with it. We moved when I was nine, and Andie got lost in time. J’Neene was my mother’s middle name, and the one she went by. I liked the weirdContinue reading “Grand”
Mind Altering
I realized that my mindset did not fit my life. Have you ever lost or gained weight but kept wearing the same old ill-fitting clothes? I’ve done this. Or maybe you bought a dress off the rack and it didn’t quite fit your shoulders or bunched at the waist. Besides being less flattering, clothes thatContinue reading “Mind Altering”
