My son is 11 years old. And, each day it seems he is getting older and older. And, of course he is. The second we are born we are getting older. Obvious but true. The last few years we have been quite often on the run on trips […]
Today there is no snark. No sadness. No complaints. Just gratitude for what I have, including the great people who are my bedrock. I’ve made some good friends this year. I’ve been to some interesting places. I’ve had a variety of great bread pudding. I left ugliness behind. […]

I just watched the season premiere episode of the Nancy Drew reboot. I didn’t really know what to expect. I will share a secret with you. I never read the Nancy Drew stories as a kid. Or, at least I have no recollection of that. I read a […]
This past week, I passed a sign at an organization proudly noting that their community legacy matters. And, to me it most surely does. When we have children, we quite often think of our legacy. They represent us going forward. We pass on our values to them. We […]
