Early each morning, R.J. and I spend about an hour, in our living room, listening to music, drinking our coffee, and just talking - about all manner of topics both important and not so. We've discovered it is the best way to recharge our creative energies.
R.J. can always make me laugh, help me see new solutions to any problem I struggle with, and is forever my cheerleader and confidant. He claims I do the same for him. As far as our daily schedules go, for work and commitments, one day is never like another, so having that morning time together is the spark that ignites us - much more so than a quick cup of coffee and a hurried kiss, as we head off in different directions.
I realize that our special careers, which allow us to work from home, is not what most couples enjoy. And, without sounding like a boring teacher advocating life's best solution, let me make it clear that, in describing the start to our days, I'm not trying to say this is the only way to be productive, or have the perfect marriage!
No, my purpose, in this new launch of my blog, is that I will sometimes describe aspects of our lives that are unique for us, hoping that, by doing so, you will know me a little better.
I welcome your comments about my thoughts - and please share with me some of the ways you inspire yourselves each day.
About Me
- Suzanne Rowe Ogren
- Been writing ever since I learned to read at age four. A former writer of magazine and newspaper articles (focusing on personality profiles and travel), I presently have four published books available. The first is "Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Gift of Christmas", in which my story, "Our Spirit of Christmas", appears. Released in 2010, it is available through the Chicken Soup website, as well as select bookstores. The second published work (2015), co-authored with my husband, R.J., describes our unique careers in the early decades of Walt Disney World. It is entitled "Together in the Dream", available through themeparkpress.com. My first novel, "Ribbons" was published in May 2016. With my husband, we wrote a sequel to "Together in the Dream", titled, "Remembering the Magic", published in January of 2017. My "second career" as an actress and theatre director for much of my life, affords me many avenues for stories, blogs and plot lines. You can discover more about this on our combined website: www.rjogren.com.
