On my own, I find myself, again and again, Not protesting, let me say, just observing, observing so, So around me all types, like us all, all types, nothing special do I boast, Just see, again and again, my little twist, why does it cause such a look? My perspective, quirky as it is, unique …

Slow You Roll
Good advice, slow your roll. When you do your work, in a flurry, don’t hurry, don’t speed through, More important to get it right, not just get it done, no fun to slip up, screw up, Don’t give up tho’, pause instead, reset your head, slow your roll, and try again.

Thankful For Warmth
Most every day as part of my morning rituals I spend a little time stretching and waking up in the bathroom before I shower. In the dark; heater on; on my smartphone, a little reading; a bit of writing, too. The room gets warm quickly; definite blessing in these winter months. I like the whole …

Thinking about how our family has played out so far, it seems only right that I jot down some thoughts periodically for posterity; these occasional snapshots are also quite therapeutic for me; so a selfish motive in the mix for sure. It’s all good. So just now as we start our fifth year as a …
