Did I mention that I am planning to check some dream destinations off my list this year? Well, I am! The cruise that was to kick-start it all won’t take place in the allotted time, so I am working on an alternate plan. My library has fabulous resources for my newly selected destination. I’ve gotten […]

Happy March! It looks like Spring may actually show up one of these days. After my big cleaning frenzy in February I spent a few days cocooning. I gave in to my fatigue and snoozed the days away. All my readings have various exercises to get in touch with your inner self and that’s an […]

I am processing the chapters of my library books in thought and deed. Last week I had a great conversation with my accountant that is helping me with the business planning. But in order to move forward, we must let go of the old, and “create space†in our lives as Kathy Freston puts it. […]

In 2007 I took a class that changed my life-although I didn’t know it at the time. Suze Weinberg introduced me to UTEE, and a whole new world of crafting opened up to me. Today is Suze’s birthday, but if you read her blog you’d think every day is her birthday. If anyone knows joie […]
