As we approach the end of another month, it is time once again for those of us participating in the 2022 Word of the Year Link Party to reflect on our chosen words. (Queue the fireside chat music…) Or considering this is a party, perhaps you prefer some dance music and a fancy cocktail. Whatever…
Last week I ended my blog post with the phrase “right as rain” and wondered aloud (or in print anyway) where that phrase came from. It got me thinking about other idioms and how they came to be…what were the original meanings? For answers, I turned to my friend Google. Today I share Google’s wisdom…
I’m baaack… Well, sort of. As you may or may not have noticed, I took a couple weeks off from blogging. Hubby and I took a long-awaited and much-needed trip to Mazatlan, Mexico. We saw old friends we’ve been missing since COVID restricted travel. And made new friends, we hope to see more of in…
Here we are again, nearing the end of another month. Admittedly, I’m a week early for the WOTY Link-up, but since I plan to be on vacation next week…connecting with friends I haven’t seen for two years…and with the ocean, which I also have not seen for two years…I thought I’d write my April word…

We are three months into 2022…a quarter of the way through the year! It seems like a good time to check in on whatever intention, goals, or Word of the Year you set for 2022. For me, that’s Connected. As in… Connected to this moment.Connected to my authentic self.Connected to my amazing body.Connected to my…
I’m no psychic. I have no special powers of discernment. Still on occasion the Universe speaks to me. I believe it speaks to each of us. It’s just that sometimes we aren’t paying attention. And who could blame us? This world is full of distractions. We have places to be, things to do, people to…
I took the leap! After talking about my upcoming retirement for six years, I took the leap and announced a date to my team. #retirement #leapoffaith #SoWhatNowWhat
We’ve come to the end of another month, which means it’s time to check in with our Words of the Year…if you’re into that kind of thing. And hey, if you haven’t chosen a word yet, and you’d like to, it’s never too late! Choose one today! You may recall my word for 2022 is…
