We have choices to make, too…
•
It’s been a week, hasn’t it? Whatever side of the ballot you were on, there were SO many feels. So, now our job as citizens of our country continue, just like they did last Monday, before Election Day. But we have choices to make. Will we continue to live in…

One Day More.. to FREEDOM!… From political ads!
•
It’s Monday. Election Eve. One. More. Day. We’re down to hours now. In the words on Jean Valjean… one day more… to FREEDOM! FROM POLITICAL ADS! FREEDOM! That’s not what Valjean meant when he sang that in the musical but I’m sure he probably meant it in his heart. I…

Doing good feels GREAT!
•
I love doing good. It totally feels great! This week, my daughter and I got to do some hands on helping for the people in Western North Carolina who have lost EVERYTHING in Hurricane Helene. We packed meals at Feed the Hunger’s headquarters. The meals will be shipped to families…

The Most Wimbledon Time of the Year
•
My happy place has returned. Hours to sit in front of the TV and enjoy high quality tennis. Ah, Wimbledon. I love you so. Gentlemen’s Singles AND Doubles. Women’s singles and doubles. Finding the new players to root for. Discovering the players I just CAN’T root for. That dreaded word……

Dear Supreme Court… Way to go, You Killed Democracy
•
I promised myself I would never bring politics onto my blog. I wanted to keep it work-related or life-related, but this is this is the only place I have to get out of my brain and heart all that is boiling up within me about the heart-breaking mess that happened…

Living in the moment while planning ahead
•
There’s a fine line between living in the moment and also trying to plan ahead for tomorrow. I feel like I’m living in a paradox of circumstance. I am constantly reminded of how important it is to live every day like it’s my last. I appreciate every moment with my…

It’s my birdfeeder and I’ll smile if I want to.
•
Everyday I sit in front of my laptop for work. I watch TV. I workout. But life is short! I need something new! So… my newest form of entertainment is not a game console or smart TV. It’s not a bike (although I would LOVE one of those). I love…
