I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
Easter brings, springs up, fond memories. I don’t recall a rainy Easter day. Although my birthday, which is coming up shortly, is almost always rainy. Easter egg hunts were a delightful time in which my son just ran and ran giggling while he picked up stuff from the […]
She hardly ever went out to that spot. But today she felt a great compulsion to do so. She was inexplicably drawn to the chair and followed the directions from her inner voice. She sat down and grabbed some snow. She breathed it in. She looked up to […]
Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Ad nauseum. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. No. Don’t think. The cycle stops here. No need to repeat. Let things dry as they are. Let things air out as needed. Just stop repeating the same cycle. Out there it is often said “Insanity is doing the same […]

All day I thought of my to-do list which is a mile long. Well, let me rephrase. Occasionally, throughout the day, I thought I should get some checkmarks onto my yellow pad of itemized to-do items. I thought about. Then sent about ten emails. Then I did one […]
A long time ago. So long ago, that I cannot remember exact details, I watched a comedy skit for a clean up service that stayed in my mind. It percolated. It might have been a Saturday Night Live skit. It was selling a service for when you die. […]
In most of my email correspondence, I’m rather polite and somewhat sunny. I wish people a good day, morning, Friday eve and so forth. It’s fluff. Not straight to the point. However, you get a little bit more buy in when you start off with warmer pleasantries than […]
The other day I jokingly tried to bribe my son with $100 to eat something new. It was spicy, hot Korean cauliflower bites. But he was not having it. Literally. Could not convince him in any way. I lamented to him that back in the day (when he […]
They did it. They finally did it. A grand sense of relief. A weight lifted off of her shoulders. A movement forward. A stop to the mental hemorrhage. Now their lives could truly begin. Or so it felt. Everything had been in stasis. Or so it had seemed. […]
At times, after a challenging day at school, we tell my son that life is not fair. He hates remote learning and doesn’t understand why his teachers have yet to master the technology. He even takes it personally. Which, of course, he shouldn’t. But I have digressed a […]
