Tuesday's Topic

Throughout our lives we will inevitably encounter changes that require some kind of response. We can ignore or avoid the change and continue on our way. We can fight the change, hoping to win. Or we can adjust to the change… positively or negatively.
One of my favorite artists says it perfectly…
If you don’t like [...]

Art, and life, is all about perceptions. The place we each live in is built from a foundation of how we perceive ourselves as well as the world around us. Our perception determines our perspective. What I perceive as wrong, could be fine with you due to your views, experiences and understanding of the situation [...]

In honor of Bastille day, which I don’t personally celebrate, but would delighted to if I lived in France… I’m sharing with you today, the I Love France Penguin.
Paris is on my Top Ten places I need to visit list. I know they aren’t necessarily French, but here are some things I that remind me [...]

I’ve always been a wanderer in many different circles. I like the diversity of meeting and knowing people with different interests and experiences than my own… each a small reflection of something I enjoy. Not to mention, I have a short attention span, so having multiple interests and activities in common with different groups of [...]

Everything that surrounds us has a great deal to do with what we actually see around us. If we surround ourselves with negative, the positive is that much more difficult to see. When our view is towards a specific direction, our actions tend to follow.
Something that might not bother me today could turn out to [...]

I have a number of favorite quotes and am constantly finding new phrases to inspire or remind me of something important to me. This quote by Abraham Lincoln sits in the middle of my refridgerator door on a plain white 4″x4″ magnet yet I don’t always notice it… today however, it popped me upside the [...]

This is a reoccurring question these days for so many people in so many places.. what next? Right now it’s a loaded question. It feels like every next step is so important and so much is relying on the answer being correct.
Why?
In order to progress every day, shouldn’t we always be asking ourselves what next? [...]

Today is April Fool’s Day and I have yet to personally witness any of the usual mean pranks. I’m not complaining at all. I’ve never been one to like the potentially hurtful jokes. Instead, this year I have seen a lot of silliness and fun and just down right good laughs between friends.
This year, my [...]

Never under estimate the power of the sunshine in your day. Besides the proven medical benefits of being out in the sun, there is an obvious metal/psychological benefit as well… at least in my world there is.

I’ve been stuck for weeks now. Trying to find a focus for what to work on next. What is [...]

Thursday – eeek… I’m two days late, but I have an excuse; I was out of town at a conference and didn’t have time to think let alone write a blog. So here I am with a pile of work to catch up on and again, little time to do much but hope to make [...]

Today is Pick A New Love Song Day – I’d really like to say I’m delighted to pick a new love song, but I think I’ll have to revert back to my favorite… for good reason of course.
When my husband and I were dating, we watched the movie Serendipity — enjoying it so much we [...]

I decided early on that today’s topic would be “traveling” as I knew I’d be spending a good portion of the day traveling. Little did I know that I’d end up spending the entire day waiting for one event to blend into the next. I waited for my husband to get home so I could [...]

Happy Tuesday! Today is…
Today is Martin Luther King’s birthday and as a day of respect in honor of this day, it is also Humanitarian Day.

But just in case your more of an animal lover, today is also Hug Your Cat Day. I personally won’t be hugging any critters of the feline family – it’s not [...]

This week (december 15-21) is International Launguage week. Although I am not fluent in any language except English (and even that is questionable), I thought a great Tuesday’s topic is to say

Fröhliche
Weihnachten!

Connections… when I think of making connections, a lot of things come to mind. Connecting to the internet, connecting to people, connecting to clients and customers… connecting legos. Brain waves connecting in my 11-year-old’s head is a connection I often ponder.
My favorite connecting, however, is that of meeting new people and making new friends, business [...]

Tomorrow, September 5th is sisters day. So to my sister all the women I call “sister”…

“Sisters touch your heart in ways no other could. Sisters share… their hopes, their fears, their love, everything they have. Real friendship springs from their special bonds.”

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can’t [...]

I’ve lived in this house almost 4 years now and just today had air conditioning installed.
Why?
Why did I get it installed at all when I live in colorado? It doesn’t get THAT hot.
Or why did I wait almost 4 years to do it?
because I like to keep the world wondering what’s next…
No.
I thought I could [...]

A friend of mine and I were chatting this morning. Mid-conversation her cat hopped on the keyboard and said hello to me.

Now, I have kids that do the same… and as entertaining as it was, it reminded us both of how cats seem to plop themselves right in the middle of our productivity.
Why?
Maybe I was [...]

November 21 is World Television Day… what’s that mean?
So i was thinking that we could chat and giggle about i Love Lucy or how we love M.A.S.H. or maybe question when the reruns of Sienfeld will end.. but nooo, apparently there is a very serious meaning behind the day and now I’m really confused.
From Wikipedia, [...]
