There was a time, many moons ago, where I kept a journal of things I had learned that day or week or month. Admittedly, there were days when I felt like I hadn’t learned anything. This is contrary to what I tell my son. I tell him that […]
I picked my word for next year. Joy! I’m bringing it back. I hope it becomes all the rage. Now, while I have a wonderful, positive word there are some words I am done with. Some I can share with you. Some, I cannot. Wish I could. But […]

I have a fun red sweatshirt that I like to wear to just rattle people. The sweatshirt says “done”. I bought this many years ago when I lived in Los Angeles. When you wear the shirt, most people are thrown by it. They wonder what you are “done” […]
