    2023-06-29 List Making for Better Work-Life Balance and More Flavorful Cookies

    Before I was self-employed, I’d often end my work day by making a list of tasks that needed to get done the next day… or at least a starter list of priorities. Then, the next day when I arrived at my desk, I could look at my list and jump right in. The other benefit,…

    2023-03-17 But What Is Happiness…

    Two days ago I forgot it was the Ides and today I forgot it’s Saint Patrick’s Day (until about 20 minutes ago). I Guess that’s just what happens when I crawl deeper back into the cave of my own little life and shut out the rest of the world. I would say this cave /…
