Like many, I’ve spent the past few weeks processing the results of the U.S. election and wondering what kind of sadist thought it was a good idea to put Thanksgiving just a few short weeks after Election Day. With only a few hours to go before Turkey Day, I have to say I’m feeling surprisinglyContinue reading “Pivoting Progress”

Awkward Angles
I recently upgraded to a new camera on a different operating system. For those who haven’t done this before, it’s akin to relearning to walk. Okay, that may be a tad dramatic, but basically, it’s been an exercise in humility, one that didn’t quite hit until after a few weeks on the struggle bus. IContinue reading “Awkward Angles”
Resolve to Reflect
Welcome to 2024. For those in the northern hemisphere, it’s the beginning of winter. It’s a time of rest and reserve. It’s cold and the call for coziness is at its peak.

Most of us aren’t wired to focus on the positives. If we have a headache, we generally won’t feel grateful for our pain-free knees. In my searchContinue reading “Groggy Gratitude”
Tolerable Tradeoff
Spring has arrived. I know it to be true not because of the date on the calendar, but because of the newly returned pulse to my sinuses. Before I go too far down that self-pity path, I will say it’s a tolerable tradeoff for the return of a bit of color. Still, spring is notContinue reading “Tolerable Tradeoff”
Wing It
The beginning of a new year, by definition, brings a lot of new. One of my favorites is a new planner. There’s just something special about putting pen to paper to plan and track your year.
A New Way to Fall
A few weeks ago, I stumbled spectacularly. This was a literal stumble and not a metaphorical one. As is often the case, my head was in one place and my feet were in another. As most successful walkers will tell you, ideally you want your head and feet in the same general vicinity.
