Late night construction in preparation for an all day rain event today. @slb_2gsd INTHE DARK, with only cell phone flash lights, and the help of @gailferguson2008, disassembled part of a paddock fence so an injured horse and miniature donkeys could get out of the rain today in a lean-to freshly built by an Eagle Scout candidate and his Troop. The best part?
Pulling an eight foot post out of the ground with her bare hands!!!! Here’s to good, strong, determined women!
May we be them, raise them and know them!

I’ve had the privilege of working since I was 14. At times I had as many as 4 jobs at once. From cutting patterns and selling swimsuits, to cleaning vacation homes, nannying children, working in surf shops, bookstores, restaurants, coffee shops, law firms, churches, dance studios, NGO’s and non-profits, I’ve had A LOT of bosses. Men and women who taught me, corrected me, loved me, loathed me (Yep, loathed, and told me so. I got myself fired from that job. 😂 Best day of my life). Today happens to be an “official” day to honor Bosses but truthfully I have sat down many times and inventoried the people I’ve worked for, gleaning from their gifts, gathering clues and lessons on where I’m headed and what I need to be sure to learn to go where I’m going.
While I’ve had some stellar guys at the helm, the majority have been women. True story. Listen to these women I’ve worked for: they have not only been for the last 20+ years but STILL ARE powerhouses and only gaining momentum. They are designers, artists, business owners, lawyers, artists, athletes, doctors, published authors, mothers, wives, mentors, pastors, keynote speakers, leaders in government, and I can truthfully, gratefully say nearly ALL of them are still in my life and I can call them friends. (Well, except one. She reeaaaallllyyy didn’t like me. 🤷♀️ But oh well, you can’t win ‘em all.) Thank you always @seamaids_brandeemcnamara @lizgflaherty @yodifiji @lzgracewarriorsretreat TO NAME A BRILLIANT FEW who did not and do not settle.
Happy #nationalbossday
You continue to move me – to want more, to offer more, to do more. I continue to be ready to support as needed when you are ready.
