Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on May 12, 2013

There is that whole saying that you don’t know your faith until it is tested. Well before 2010, I would have said that I had pretty good faith, but it had never really been tested. Over the past two years it has been tested greatly. However, for some reason that I can’t even figure out [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on April 6, 2013

My divorce has officially been final a year. It has been a year of learning, growing, and moving on. Today, I made my first on-line video depicting Year One of this new dynamic for me and the kids. It is amazing how far you can come in one year. I always thought that a family [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on April 5, 2013

You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. I love this piece of a quote by Jim Morrison. We are all so scared of pain, and yet when I was in the greatest pain of my life, that is the one time I can truly say I [...]

For a while, when I was sick, I started meditating. It really helped. However, somehow after my ex-husband moved out, I fell off the meditation wagon, so to speak. Recently Oprah along with Deepak, started a 21 day meditation challenge and I must say; I am loving it! I just meditated for my eighth day [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on March 10, 2013

I had no idea, but apparently, I am an introvert!!!! It is crazy what you learn about yourself, when you take the time after much tragedy to actually explore yourself. I was always sure that I was an extrovert. I have lots of friends and acquaintances. I enjoy a good get together, and I am [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on January 13, 2013

My ex-husband moved out one year and seven days ago. I must admit, the first eight months were awful. I was ready for the divorce. I was happy that he finally moved out, because it is hard living with someone when you know divorce is looming. However, I didn’t know what to do with myself [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on January 1, 2013

Life doesn’t often go as we plan. This is a hard lesson to learn, and fortunately for the lucky few, plans go unaltered. However, I have learned in the past year (or two) that plans can fall apart. I have also learned that when they fall apart as they inevitably do, there you still stand [...]

Posted by Katrina Kaczmarek on December 2, 2012

They are here! Just in time for Christmas!!!! These Hugs bags were made in Cambodia by women rescued from the sex trade. Most of the proceeds will return to the organization that rescues and trains these women in a trade once they are rescued. The lining of each bag is made with the Hugs Logo, [...]
