You may recall that my Word of the Year (WOTY) for 2022 is Connected. It’s easy to choose a word in January, get all excited about it, and then slowly let it slide over the next several months until you’ve forgotten all about it. Like all good things, it takes a little effort to keep…
Thank you Universe… …for putting Buddy’s doppelganger on our walking route. It was so fun to see them side-by-side. While it doesn’t look like it in this pic, they were quite interested in each other. Also, thank you Buddy for getting us outdoors on a brisk day. I sometimes forget you can bundle up and…
With COVID and the flu season in full swing, you may be looking for anything that will help build your immune system. I went snooping around the internet and found some surprising things that may help…and certainly can’t hurt. Please remember I am not a doctor or medical expert of any kind. I don’t even…
Divine Sparks: Interfaith Wisdom for a Postmodern World. That’s a mouthful…sounds complex…and deep. Well, it is…and it isn’t. When I received a free copy of this book from DartFrog Books in exchange for an honest review, I was not at all sure what to expect. If I’m being perfectly honest…and I did promise an honest…
Here we are in the first week of a new year…long enough for many people to have set and broken their New Year’s Resolutions. Or perhaps you are among the more than 57 percent of people that don’t set resolutions at all. If you’re not feeling the New Year’s Resolution thing, but still want to…
Thank you EMI Health team… …for another wonderful year together. You truly are a superstar team! And thank you for the holiday brunch, even on a super snowy day. Speaking of which… Thank you Larry… …for clearing the driveway and walks of 13 inches of heavy, wet snow. Thank you Mother Nature for providing much-needed…
When you envision your Christmas, does it look like a Norman Rockwell Christmas…and then when it arrives, it’s more like A Christmas Story? It can be frustrating, especially if you try to force things or keep going over and over in your head how “it should be.” Or maybe you are missing loved ones this…
If you were to visit my home this week…first of all, you’d have to make it through the 13 inches of snow that fell overnight (thankfully my husband cleared the walks and the driveway)…then you’d find Christmas stockings on the mantel, Christmas cards taped to the door, and a Christmas tree in the basement. Tis…
My mother was right about a lot of things. I wrote a whole post about lessons I learned from her. But she got this one wrong…sorry Mom. Coffee is not sinful. In fact, coffee is heavenly…it’s right up there with meditation, music, books, and nature walks…all indispensable. I started free writing this morning with the…
Thank you Carmine’s Italian Restaurant… …for the delicious fettuccine allo scoglio and the pleasant atmosphere in which to enjoy it. Thank you to my sisters for creating a tradition of girls’ dinner. I love our time together. Thank you Halloween candy… …for being so colorful and fun to sort through, even without eating. Of course,…
