Keep It Simple, Stupid

It’s the season to be thinking of all the ways to improve in life and we are reading arguments for and against New Year’s resolutions, when in reality we need New Life resolutions. I don’t need lofty goals at the beginning of the year that will just make me feel bad about myself when I... Continue Reading →

Let It Go

I am one big step closer to wearing reading glasses. Yesterday my daughter talked me into trying some on in a cute boutique, and we found some that were palatable. Sigh….how did this happen?

I was not looking for a job, but happened upon a new place nearby; it’s an organic restaurant that serves locally sustained food with a chef driven menu, my kind of place. I went inside and immediately had a strong feeling that I needed to be a part... Continue Reading →

For years when my kids were little I was able to get away with a few double standards in my life: Eat all your fruits and veggies before having something sweet Work up a sweat every single day And my favorite, never watch something on TV that isn’t educational and/or uplifting There are many more,...

Change the World

When I was in college I was going to be a world changer. I could feel it deep in my bones, I was called to do something great. I had some ideas of what this accomplishment would be, but no clear direction. My guy and I married and started our careers, both of us very... Continue Reading →
