I woke this morning having the urge to write, but not having much to say. That has been happening more often lately. I'm sure it's just because my routine is tight and mostly the same day-to-day in the current state of affairs. Yesterday had some interesting turns. For months we have been trying to hire …
Social fill…
This weekend left me feeling...connected. I don't think I've ever been more thankful for technology than I was this weekend. Let's be honest -- for the most part I've just taken technology for granted. I've been using Zoom for some time -- for conferences and trainings, but never to bridge social events. But boy, did …
In the mourning…
Finally -- a name for what I've been experiencing lately. Much like everyone I know, I have a routine for my day, a rhythm that gets me started from the moment I wake until I go to bed. It differs based on the day -- or it used to at least. Mornings are pretty much …
Strange times…
These are certainly strange times we are living in. Social distancing, the media bringing 24/7 updates (or the latest buzz) about the virus to the masses. Questioning how much food and paper good supplies we need. How are you doing? How are you adapting to the sudden shift in our lives? For our family, it's …

However, there is one thing I long to memorize that continuously escapes me.., Bible verses. I read them;ponder them;write them;color them;repeat them; and pray …

I've been hearing these words a lot lately from many different people. I could never... SingWriteDo yogaPaintDo mathRide a motorcycle The list is endless; as are the reasons why...the sheer volume of excuses is mind boggling and sometimes, when I hear people speak like this, I think there's something very, very wrong with me.

My Valentine…
I don't take enough time to brag on the man in my life. But really, I need to. I woke this morning, early as always, made my coffee and in my half-awake stuper, made my way to my writing desk. It took me a moment to compute the lovely flowers, fun candies, card, and small …
Choices and Cheescake Factory
Have you ever dined at the Cheescake Factory? Have you ever gone in when you were starving? Now, I'll start with a confession -- I hadn't eaten there in a really long time and then yesterday my family had a fun outting and we decided to dine in and in very quick order I both …
