Can a Loss Be a Win?
There's more to life than a football win. Hard to say when your team just lost to the worst team in the NFL crushing the playoff dreams and bringing the season to a screeching halt! All they had to do was win one of the last 2 games. And the last game was against a...
A Beating Heart
When she said "da da" for the first time, his melted. When he got on the kindergarten bus, hers skipped a beat. When she said yes to the prom, she stole his. When he said, "you may kiss your bride", his stopped a second. When he hit the winning shot, hers swelled with...
Are You Where Your Feet Are?
"Be where your feet are." This sentence seems to be a given. Like seriously, folks....how could I be anywhere else except where my feet are? I can't be in the kitchen when my feet are in the living room. I can't be outside when my feet are inside. I can't be in...

Old Fashioned Virtual Meetings
Zoom. FaceTime. TEAMS. Laptops. iPads. Cell Phones. WOW. So many ways to connect with others "in person" while not actually being "in person." Virtual took on a whole new meaning when the pandemic hit. We were scrambling for ways to connect with those we like, love...
FOMO: The Fear of Missing Out
He was short in stature and disliked by most. He worked for today's version of the IRS and had a very distinct reputation for taking (and keeping) extra money in his collection of taxes. And I believe he had FOMO. The fear of missing out. He was a very curious man....
Are You a Sufferer?
I have O.P.D. It's a condition that can drive you insane. Obsession Planning Disorder. 🙂 I plan my to-do list. I plan my menu. I plan my day. I plan my wardrobe. I plan my cleaning chores. I plan vacations and goals and my life. I plan how my refrigerator should be...
