Happy Thanksgiving!

November 25, 2015

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love being with friends and family. I especially love taking the time out to be grateful for all the blessings in my life. Every time I see this picture of cute little Pilgrim chipmunks gathered around a pie, I smile. I smile because: I love Thanksgiving I love chipmunks […]

What happens when you write a lot

November 18, 2015

I love to write. I started out doing it just for fun and because it relaxed me. My writing has given me so much in return. Can we say free stuff from Amazon? Mr. Ken is especially happy when I get free stuff like the candy pictured above. You may notice that one candy has […]

What motivates you?

November 11, 2015

I am deeply immersed in my volunteer consulting project. I am working more hours and much harder than I ever did when I was getting paid to work. But, you know what? I am having a blast and I wouldn’t change anything. Sure, I have some frustrating days, but on the whole, I have never […]

Be in silence

November 4, 2015

I just got back from a 3 day prayer and meditation retreat. Cell phones were not allowed and nor was there computer access. The retreat was held in a leafy suburb of Boston. The grounds were magnificent! Even though the Boston suburbs are built up, once you were on the property, you felt as though […]

Pumpkins!

October 28, 2015

Nothing deep this week, just a picture of a our local pumpkin patch! A local church displays and sells lots and lots of pumpkins. They use the proceeds to benefit various charities. There are big pumpkins, tiny little pumpkins and every size in between. It is quite the sight to see. Enjoy. 🙂 P.S. I […]

My week at Future M

October 14, 2015

I just finished up a fantastic week learning all about the future of marketing. Wow, with technology changing nearly every day, things in the business world change quickly too. I will be doing a series of posts about what I learned, but to start things off, I thought you all would enjoy hearing (or should […]

The story of pie

October 7, 2015

Just a simple post this week. I am off to a marketing conference for the rest of the week and didn’t have a chance to prepare anything deeper. Here is a picture of some pies I baked over the weekend. Or rather, I baked them while my Mom supervised. Ever since we had the stove […]

Do-si-do and away we go!

September 30, 2015

Here we are ready to embark on our square dancing adventure: Oh dear, I see we have turned into one of those couples that dresses alike and looks alike. 🙂 We arrive at the hall and Mr. Ken goes straight towards the refreshments to check them out. He comes back with a big smile on […]

Thoughts on the end of summer

September 23, 2015

I’m torn about summer coming to an end. On one hand, I will miss all the hours of daylight. I love getting up early – can we say 4 am?. By the time I’m done with my healthy breakfast at 5 am, it’s already getting light outside. On the other hand, this has been a […]

Information overload

September 16, 2015

We are bombarded with information, images and stuff. Just one email from a content marketing firm has about 20 article links. I find myself so overwhelmed that I no longer even open the email. I just hit delete. I can’t even be bothered to open the email, scroll down through all the stuff and hit […]
