very happy boy

Normally, I just love taking the train into Boston. We are at the point in my consulting work where we go out and meet with clients who have applied for our work for the upcoming year. This is a lot of fun. It’s kind of like all the interest of consulting, but without any of […]

just do it

This is my favorite slogan. It can apply to so many things in life, from exercising to facing unpleasant tasks. It’s funny since it is so easy for me to apply this to my exercise. I’m really good at making myself exercise, even if I don’t feel like it. I know that I will feel […]

rocks under water

We are off to a good start with our kayaking this year. The weather has been great and the temperatures very comfortable. The cooler temperatures are a very good thing since I wear long sleeved SPF-50 shirts and they can be pretty uncomfortable when it gets hotter. We’ve have been mainly kayaking on the Charles […]

be nice

Now that I am free from caring for my Mom, Mr. Ken and I want to do more traveling. Before we do that, I have to get my passport. I had a passport, way back when in 1984, but that has long since expired. First, the passport picture. Off I head to my local Walgreen’s. […]

It all started way back in high school. I took one of those career/skills tests and my results came back: Your ideal career would be a. Accountant b. Physical Education teacher c. Army Drill Sergeant. Ever since then I have been fascinated by boot camp workouts. If you ask Mr. Ken, he may also say […]

lessons from teeth

So off I went to the dentist to get a filling fixed. The dentist is a talkative fellow. I guess he has to be so he can distract his patients from the torture, er discomfort of what he is doing. All of a sudden he stops talking and goes, “Mmmmm.” I have learned that when […]

kayaking

The lazy days of summer are upon us. I got to thinking about the summer and how I love it. Here’s why I love summer: 1. Many hours of daylight. I am a morning person and I love to exercise in the morning. That being said, it sure is hard to get up at 4:30 […]

beautiful rhododendron

Short and sweet this week – a reminder to all my blogging friends, to stop, take a look around and admire the beauty of nature. It can be found everywhere! This beautiful rhododendron is right outside our family room window. I see it every time we sit down. The flowers were especially full this year. […]

I can’t believe it, but 25 years ago today Mr. Ken and I said “I do.” It’s been quite the ride and I wouldn’t change anything about it! Here are some of my favorite pictures from that beautiful day: 1. My Dad and I. This is my very favorite picture of my Dad. It perfectly […]

volunteer and career

I am winding down my non-profit volunteer consulting project. I am sad to see it end. I was on a team of Harvard alumni who created a strategic marketing plan for a local non-profit.  I really enjoyed my team mates and I just love the client. I did this work because I wanted to give back […]
