    2019-06-20 Colorado Day 2 – The Picture of a Perfect Day

    Yesterday was a good day with the stress of traveling behind me and the peace of being in a very special place taking over. The drive here was incredible and though I had a bit of a challenge adjusting to the altitude (headache, upset stomach, yadda, yadda), catching up with my peeps into the evening…

    2019-06-19 Colorado Day 1 – Changes in Scenery

    The travel day yesterday was dismal. I sat on a plane that was not allowed to take off for two hours because the destination airport (Denver) was “shutdown” due to a massive storm in the area. Shutdown just means that no planes were allowed to take off or land. I sat reading and thinking and…

    2019-06-18 Where it Stops, Nobody Knows

    It’s another severely overcast morning and the mood is set. Everything in the backyard is cast in a haze of forgetting. It would be a good day to slide under some blankets and nap the day away but then the guilt of wasting time would gnaw on my big toe and not let me really…

    2019-06-17 The One About Marriage – Part 2

    It’s Monday and the weekend went by too fast. We had a house full of teenagers again this go-round and it feels like I spent the entire weekend cleaning the kitchen and doing dishes. I don’t want this to turn into a rant but I just feel like I’ve gotta get it out. Every single…

    2019-06-15 Four, Three, Two, One, and Go (or Not)

    At this point I’m just moving about the world and spending a lot of time thinking about it. The world and my place in it. What’s worth a second thought and what is not. Four days ago I saw a tweet from a friend of mine that led to an article that was worth a…

    2019-06-12 Balance Restored

    It’s Wednesday and the toughest part of my week is over. I had the dinner party and wouldn’t you know it, the world did not end. Nothing bad happened. Of course they all loved the house and I ordered sushi so food prep and clean-up was a snap! I slept in until about 7:15 this…

    2019-06-11 It’s all in my Head

    I’m having a quaint get-together with co-workers at my house this evening and I’m having some serious anxiety about it. I don’t know what is wrong with me. Why can’t I just relax like everyone else and enjoy dinner with some really great people? Why can’t I? I mean, what’s the worst that can happen?…

    It’s the second or third day in a row I don’t feel I’ve anything to write about. I haven’t really been on the treadmill either. My mind has melded the two some how. It’s almost 9pm and I’m sitting with my kitten in the greenhouse. I had a pretty productive day, you know, being a…
