Bookin' It With Bobbi

Click here for Audio As long as I can remember I have always preferred being outside in the sun doing anything. The warmth of the rays shining on me, the smell of vegetation and dirt is comforting. If there is an opportunity to be outdoors I am all over it. I enjoy gardening and fiddling in the yard, hiking or walking, swimming, laying out and reading in the sun. I have been known to take my computer outside and work, just to be able to take in the fresh air. I am fair skinned, but while I will burn if I push it, I tend get a pretty good tan during the summer. When I was a child in Ajo, where the temperature got to 120 or better annually, I was always outside playing in the yard or arroyo. Never worrying about getting a sunburn and I do not recall my Nana putting sun screen on me before I went out to play. We are talking the late 1960’s, so I am not sure they knew about sunscreen then. If they did, we probably could not have afforded it, so I do not believe we used any ...

Click here for Audio Simba showing his alien side Forgiveness what is it all about? Why is it necessary or is it necessary? Do four legged mammals forgive each other? Okay, so maybe that last question is a bit out there for some of you, but you have to admit humans have learned a lot about food and healing from animals. A bit ago I was presenting a Kaity’s Way Healthy Relationships Workshop. One of the attendees was a seventeen-year-old young man who had been in an abusive relationship that rendered him stabbed in the leg and yes it did clip the artery. His baby momma/ex-girlfriend found out he was talking with another girl and eventually stabbed him. My question to him was why was she not in this workshop also. After obtaining more information, what we had here is two children that have a child of their own that have no idea about what a healthy relationship looks like. My guess is they are both being raised in households that jealousy and possessiveness is a way of lif...

Click here for Audio W hen it comes to journeys it seems at times that we don't have a choice. Sometimes it feels like it is a matter of the lesser of two evils. In other cases, there are journeys we cannot wait to take part in. Currently, I am on a journey of my choosing and this excites me because I chose this journey. Chose being the operative word here. I know that in everything we have a choice, but in the last ten or so years I feel as if we have had some life choices thrust upon us, rather than us choosing them. For example, my cancer journey. Did I intend to get cancer? Who does? Quite the contrary, heck I was doing a lot to stay healthy. Trying to eat right and not after 6pm. I exercised when I got a chance and took Shotokan Karate classes. Yet, it still got me and that is one journey I would never have chosen. Still, because I was faced with having cancer I still had choices to make on various levels. I had to think about me, my family, resources, finances, house...

Click here for Audio Yes, the books are here!!! "C is For Conquer" has arrived!!! It is hard to describe what I am feeling at this very moment..... It is similar to bringing a child into this world. The idea and writing of it was like the pregnancy. You prepare, nurture and create it. Do everything in your power to make sure it is healthy and has the best start in life. The publisher, Morgan James Publishing, in this case is like the Doctor delivering your baby. They help you prepare and line things up for its arrival. You check in with them from time to time to make sure things are going well and you're on schedule. Then comes the delivery date and something you spent weeks, maybe months or years on is now in your hot little hands to share with the world! Ahhhhh, but just like with a child, this is when the real work begins. You are now responsible for creating the buzz around the book and helping people become aware of its existence. For someone like me that ...
