“We already have all the time there is. We can’t make more of it, we can only enjoy the time we have.” ~ Paul Pearsall So the past few days I’ve had trouble sleeping in spite of various remedies (scullcap and some other herbal sleep aids, sleepytime tea, counting backwards from 333, checking my horoscope, […]
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. […]
“You need to have dreams. Dreams are actually the avenue through which we achieve success and true prosperity. To be without a dream is to be without a plan. You are at a loss for what to do.

It’s getting darker much earlier now which is throwing off my body clock. The dipping temperatures also mark the coming of winter. It was too chilly for my neighborhood walk this weekend. ☹ So you’ll see more inside photos over the winter season, and possibly some retrospectives. This week, I’m busy giving thanks for the […]
“To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts unexpressed That can make this life a garden†~ attributed to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe I’ve always considered myself a loner. I was a wallflower during my school years, with my brother my closest friend […]
I must say I don’t wait for Halloween to treat myself. I’ll accept or acquire a piece of chocolate year-round! It seems this week I’m navigating some trickiness though, with all the books I’m reading from the library. Preparing for the business end of a crafty venture with all its caveats can be creepy. Knowing […]
the library is full of wisdom. I love perusing mine for inspiration.
