Hello dear readers! I wish for you all a very Merry Christmas. For my friends who do not celebrate this holiday, I wish you all the joy and peace of the season. I am posting this a day early, since we all will be busy on Christmas Day. I wanted to share with you our […]

Letting go of all or nothing

December 18, 2013

It’s amazing the perspective you gain when you get older. At least that’s one positive thing about getting older! I have found that I have totally changed my view of the world from all or nothing to shades in between. I suppose the this all or nothing was necessary while I was attending a very […]

The power of music

My biggest regret in life is that I never learned to play a musical instrument. Looking back, I don’t think I would have had the patience to learn one. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve really learned to appreciate the good things in life and music is one of them. My first introduction to music was […]

Social media rant

Do you love social media? Or do you hate it? Right now, I’m leaning more towards the hate side. Hate is a strong word, maybe more like annoyed. Blogging is my exception. I love it because I’ve met so many wonderful people from all around the world. I haven’t traveled abroad much, so it’s especially […]

Okay, I’ll admit it, I was going to do a funny blog post about baking pies for Thanksgiving. Whenever I attempt to bake something, there’s plenty of things to laugh about.

I love walking; it’s my favorite form of exercise. You can do it anywhere and with minimal equipment. You can also do it at work and not get too sweaty. I used to love to take a walk in the afternoons, after sitting hunched over my computer all day. It was a great way to […]

So I know you’ve all been sitting at the edge of your seats,  wondering what that picture was that I posted last week.  First though, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time there was computer nerd. He loved computers more than anything. Well, maybe not more than his car or his wife. […]

So dear readers, can you hazard a guess as to what my dear husband, aka geek Ken, is doing? Note the turquoise wrist strap. What the heck is that for? Stay tuned. . . All will be revealed next week.

If only . . .

How many times have you uttered the phrase, “if only . . .” When I was working, I would say, “if only I had more time so that I could exercise more and eat healthier.” Now that I’m caring for my Mom and doing volunteer work, I say, “if only I had more work to […]

Now that is great customer service!

Yes I am (cheap) frugal, but I broke down and got a LLBean Visa card. With this card, I get free shipping both ways, plus I earn points for LL Bean stuff. Who needs free airline miles when you can get free LL Bean stuff? Recently LLBean offered 15% off all purchases, plus I had […]
