Here we are again, at the end of yet another month. The start of August found me with my head still in the clouds, but there were beaches and blue skies, walks and wispy trees, sunshine and sushi, travels and delicious treats.

“The Way We Were”
It cannot be denied that over the last 20 years times have drastically changed but for those of us born before the late 1990s it’s safe to say that today we are living in a completely different world. Not only has time changed, but with technology and information, even the rate of change has changed.Continue reading ““The Way We Were””
As July Fades to Black
July literally came in with a bang as we celebrated our country’s independence on the 4th of July.

Thursday’s Throwback
We have to lay those positive foundations right now, make smart choices, live life freely and without fear, and keep planting those “happy seeds”. I know my future memories won’t all be “warm and fuzzy”. After all, this is life, but I’m doing my best to leave no regrets behind.
Remember When…
As we start aging, for some of us it’s becomes natural to look back longingly at our younger years. We start remembering the “good ole days” and some of the things we used to do. Yes, we even think about the way we once looked and felt, the heads we used to turn, the heartsContinue reading “Remember When…”
