Watching the birds
So far, so good with my New Year’s resolution to be more “in the moment.” As I sit and eat, I often gaze out the window and enjoy watching the birds come to our bird feeder. The other day, a beautiful young, male cardinal stopped by for a meal. I was mesmerized watching him; he […]
What do you need?
February 5, 2020
Talk about a big question. Many times, we are very good at disliking and avoiding the very things we need most. Be it public speaking, eating healthy or something else. I got to thinking about this when I was doing some exercise. On a very simple level, I need to do more stretching. I do […]
Sir Oliver and Sir Angus

Happy New Year!
January 1, 2020
Okay, so we can’t predict the future. We can’t really control the future. All we have is the present moment. Easier concept to say than to understand. Like most people, I had been big on New Year’s resolutions. And having just one resolution would not do, I would have a list of ten. Needless to […]
