Some lessons learned from Zumba

October 17, 2018

This post isn’t about becoming a better dancer. For those of you wondering what the heck is Zumba. Zumba is a mix of Latin and international dance. It’s the latest fitness craze. Alas, my Zumba dancing looks more like a spastic cockroach waving its legs. Fitness is my passion and I always enjoy learning about […]

Comments Off on Insights from a John F. Kennedy Library visit

My two best friends and I are on a library kick and we’re trying to get more culture in our lives. This past weekend we visited the John F. Kennedy Library in South Boston. We initially planned to go because they were going to have a special exhibit about Jackie Kennedy Onassis, not so much […]

Comments Off on Pumpkins are here!

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. 🙂

Guess who is coming to dinner?

September 12, 2018

Or maybe I should say, guess what is for dinner? I looked out the window and this sight greeted me – a rather large wild turkey family! Those are some big birds. I tried to shoo them out of our backyard, but they just sat there and looked at me. What interesting backyard scenes have […]

Irony

September 5, 2018

I just had to laugh when I received my latest package from Amazon. I ordered some skin serum. You see that teeny, tiny bottle? Yep, that’s it. You see that humongous box? Yep, that is the box it came in. Some Amazon warehouse worker must have wanted to spice up his day. The good news […]

Another vacation from technology

The Law of Attraction

August 8, 2018

Some of you may have heard of this and some of you may not. This has to do with how we perceive our life and what we want. It is sometimes misunderstood to mean that “if you think it, it will happen.” It’s a bit more complicated than that. The Law of Attraction is one […]

What is your priority?

July 25, 2018

I think it’s important to periodically review your priorities, since they may change over time. Right now, my priority is kayaking. As I tell my friends: “It’s my happy place.” Making something a priority means that you may need to schedule your life around it. This can be hard to do, but I have found […]

Evoking memories of Asheville

June 20, 2018

It is amazing how a picture can evoke so many memories. That is why I love getting pictures as souvenirs. We bought this lovely forest scene last November when we were in Asheville. Something about the picture just spoke to me; probably because I love nature. Well I finally (!) got it framed and it […]

What is wrong with medicine?

June 13, 2018

Before I get started, let me say that I am very, very grateful to live in the Boston area, where I have access to world-class medical professionals. I never take good health for granted. That being said, a recent experience during my annual physical made me stop and think. I schedule the first appointment of […]
