Be in silence

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 […]

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. πŸ™‚ P.S. I […]

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.

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 […]

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. πŸ™‚ 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

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 […]

Before I begin this week’s post, I’d like to start with a little story. Way back in the days of high school, I didn’t like gym. Hard to believe that an exercise fanatic like me didn’t like gym, but there you are. I think it was because: 1. The dorky gym uniforms. Can someone say […]

One organization that has created some great events is MITX, the Massachusetts Innovation and Technology Exchange. Unfortunately, some recent events have made me change my opinion of […]
