Happy Friday! It seems like I just wrote that and here we are again. So I hope you accomplished more on your goals this week than I did. I confess part of the problem is I got distracted by, um, current events. We also redesigned this website which took some time but was well worth …

So this week I really focused in on a few of these goals. As a result, I made a lot less progress on many of them. But that’s okay. As long as I’m working on things on this list, I’m moving forward with my goals for the year. So here’s what I accomplished. Goal 1: …

Well, I can tell you that because I’ve committed to posting this series that my Monday and Tuesday evenings have become much more productive. Knowing I have to write an update in 48 hours gets me moving on some of these. LOL! I think that’s what they call accountability. So here is how I did. …

We are in the bullseye for a significant storm with freezing rain, sleet, and snow that is supposed to be somewhere between significant and catastrophic.

So it’s time for the weekly check-in! This is truly really helpful for me. I know quite a few of them didn’t see any action, but this list did spur me on in some areas. Plus this is a list for the entire year of 2020 so it’s not like I’m expecting to get them …

I do best when I have lists of things I’ve decided to do and cross the items off. I need to see right in front of me what I’ve decided to prioritize. I need to have the satisfaction of seeing items on the list crossed off. There is something about the act of crossing things …

I don’t always choose a word for a new year, but as I was developing my goals for 2020 (which I’ll be sharing another day), I started thinking about a word that encapsulated so much of what I was thinking about and planning for the year ahead. I settled on “Beautify” for 2020. This was …

It is actually quiet in my home at this moment. I know it would seem that with only three of us living here that it must be quiet all the time, but this morning and early afternoon was just loud. I think it is because Caroline has been sick with a nose and throat thing …

I want to write something here. I want to send out an email to my tiny remnant that re-upped their subscription when I changed email providers. (And I do mean tiny. Over 93% of my email list did NOT re-up. That’s not a typo. Less than 7% did. They are the tiny, faithful remnant.) If …

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. Yes, the past couple of weeks have been such a roller coaster as you can probably tell by the lack of much new content here. I thought about it every day. Many days I was working behind the scenes. Some days I just …
