Last week a winter storm kept me house bound, and it gave me the opportunity to re-organize my bookshelves. The winterscape was lovely for a bit, until white-out conditions made my windows hard to see through. So I started pulling out the books that graced my shelves, to give them a thorough dusting and get […]
Well here we are, it is 2017! I meant to blog a bunch of things this past week, but instead I needed to relax, spend time with friends, and reset my brain. I had a lovely Art Institute visit where I learned about the annual Creche. Versatile artist László Moholy-Nagy gained a new fan. There was […]
A few years ago I got all the business planning books in the world but never completed a plan for my Marvels. With a few years of redirecting under my belt and the threat that this would be the last live eCourse, I signed up for the 2016 Right Brain Business Planning eCourse. I had […]

“See your surroundings as a channel for self-expression. What can you do to love where you are?” ~ Princess Lasertron I decided to weed out my book cases this week, and it has me on a mad organizing bender. Basically I’ll be pulling everything down on the floor and then re-arranging the books. Prior to […]
The past week was spent getting my house in order for 2012. Mopped floors, clean clothes and the new shower curtain smell make me feel quite accomplished! I read a bunch of follow-up information and then ‘crashed’ a little Monday from the ideas mulling in my brain, the shift in goals from new years resolutions […]
Welcome to November 2011, everyone! October was reflective for me because it marks the anniversary of my sabbatical decision last year.
