2023-09-03 Headed for BIG MOVES, at my own pace…

I put a lot of thought into almost everything. Too much sometimes and often to my own detriment. I might argue that over-analysis has led to some really great outcomes but chaos theory has a way of throwing off any statistics I might try to use to prove my point. Which is a fancy way…

2023-08-23 It’s not who I am underneath, but what I do, that defines me…

“Holy buckets Batman, this must mean the end is near!” Batman straightens up a little, cracks a single knuckle, and slowly turns to face the exclamation, “Why’s that?” “Two!

2023-08-07 Breaking up may be hard to do but…

Putting it all back together takes forever!! Every time I think I’ve turned the corner and am feeling back to myself again I’m reminded pretty quickly that I’m no spring chicken, and no longer recover from anything as quickly as I used to.

2023-04-30 Cycles of Melancholy and Madness

For months I’ve been trying to puzzle out my problem (ok, ok, years or probably my whole damn life)… but for arguments sake let’s just call it months because that’s how long I’ve been experiencing a growing concern about how I feel on a daily basis. This nagging angst coupled with a deep desire to…

2023-04-11 There’s No Way Like the Just Say “No” Way…

My current declaration is that I am backing off from making new commitments and revoking goals that have previously been set. I’m just saying “no.” I don’t have any more professional public appearances on the books and have completely let go of *most* of my monthly resolutions—No dietary modifications, writing objectives, reading quotas, exercise directives,…
