Organized Limitations?

Hello, dear Reader. Whenever I sit down to write for you I wonder what I'm going to say. Sometimes I'll have made notes during the week when I've heard something that sounds like it's noteworthy. I might start off heading in one direction and end up in another. For me, it's a fascinating journey, a bit like a microcosm of life in general. Lately, my ears, eyes, and soul perk up whenever something about aging pops up. We are all aging, all the time -- what's the saying ... yo

Ignorance Can Be Bliss

Happy New Year! Whew, I feel like 2025 flew by even while sometimes feeling like it was dragging on. This is the perfect segue into what's been on my mind recently. Whenever one year ends and another begins there's a lot of reflection about the previous twelve months. It's all around us, in the media, and a popular topic of conversation. This review is often laced with complaints and criticism which can be valid, however I encourage you to take more time looking for the good

Movin' and Groovin'

Hello again! I'm so happy to "be" with you. You may not be keeping track, but I "missed" a week of posting. This time of year gets so darn busy and full and I succumbed to the busyness of it all. I hope you are feeling complete and satisfied and not stuffed and uncomfortable. Sometimes life is a lot like a big, holiday dinner. It's easy to overdo. As I said, I've been immersed in some of the season's activities. I had some uncommitted time and decided to fill it with a roa

Help Someone, Help Yourself

Greetings, dear Reader! Every now and then I start off my post with the same question: How are you doing? No, really --there's lots going on in the world and the holiday season has begun. All this can add up to S-T-R-E-S-S. I personally can fall into a little funk, especially if I tune in to current events. Besides turning off the assault from network news, I have another suggestion for feeling better. This week I saw a quote from the 40th US president, Ronald Reagan, that

Loving Moonfull

Hello, dear reader. I'm writing this on November 5, the evening of the Super Full Moon. All last week, I felt unsettled, and I simply couldn't think of what to write for this week's Thursday post. Then, we set the clocks back an hour, and I was doing one of my night shifts at the hospital that night. Sheesh, it was only an hour, but I felt like I was catching up for at least two days after. Because of that, I got my days mixed up, and my assistant had to remind me that I was

Blah, blah, ... blah?

Hello, again, dear Reader. I'm so glad you're here. This week I had all sorts of ideas for what I was going to write and then, I randomly logged into a seminar. It was supposed to be about the best way to serve your customers with programs and courses. I was curious about the "latest" new ideas, although as Mark Twain once said, There is no such thing as a new idea. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. Anyway, early on the presen
