Finding the Floor - A thoughtful approach to midlife motherhood and what comes next.
Listen to stories told by Camille Johnson as she reflects on her life raising a family of 5 kids, being happily married for 22 years, and finding the joy and laughter of it all. She has been trying to find the floor to her kids' rooms for a while and gets a peek about once a week. Come listen as she shares her journey of finding her floor both literally and figuratively as she contemplates, life, love, cleaning, pets, books, remodeling, being a taxi driver, finding wholeness, living as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and figuring out what she finally wants to be when she grows up. If this podcasting becomes a thing well maybe this is it. Thanks for listening!

Ep. 255 Mother's Day Reflection - missing the little things
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week I reflect on a few mother’s day things. First, I am becoming more like my mom by having all the expired condiments in my fridge. That is something that is too much of a reality right now, my kids finding them. Then second, while staying with my Dad and feeling like I was getting sick, there were not the normal things that my mom would have in the fridge or pantry. I missed the vitamin C, the essential oils, the herbal tea and whatever other concoction she would get me to try to make sure I would not get sick. I felt a little sad and then mad that it wasn’t there anymore. I reflect that it is just all of the little things that you do and are and that are just around the house, your kids may not realize but they appreciate, even the expired condiments. Enjoy all of the little things, because I sure miss a bunch of little things that just made my mom my mom. Yay to all that you are and that you keep on showing up! Happy Mother’s day and to all of the little things that you do!
