Reading: Goals & Book Recs

June 26, 2026

With the first day of summer flying by a few days ago, we’ve sailed past the longest day of the year, and the lunar midpoint of the year.  While I have a few days left before the calendar midpoint, I’m feeling like an update on my 53-book reading goal for this year is due.  Feel […]

What to do with 100 e-books

April 27, 2026
Books

(This might make you uncomfortable) I recently deleted 100 eBooks.  I read more than planned for during a recent trip and opened the e- reader app thinking perhaps there was a book there I had bought but not read.   There was.  But first, I was overwhelmed because there were well over 100 books and […]

Vacation vs. Travel

Iguana in Puerto Rico

I recently spent 3 nights in Puerto Rico celebrating a friend’s wedding.  At some point during the celebrating a conversation bubbled up on other places we had been and I mentioned that of all the places my husband and I had traveled to, Hawaii was the only place I cried when we left.  A few […]

8 is Enough

February 28, 2026

I almost titled this post “8 Eye Creams”, but it is not a click bait ranking or other evaluation of eight eye creams. It is an admission that there is at least one part of me that thinks my world will be better if I simply apply the right eye cream twice daily, and that […]

2026 – Goal #2 (& Updates on #1)

February 2, 2026

I want to write more.  I don’t think I’m the world’s greatest writer – but I love to share in this way.  There is a magic to writing (versus conversing) that allows the refinement of an idea. Space to think, then write.  Research, then write and revise.  Reread, then edit.  I love that process. Both […]

2026 – Goal #1

January 7, 2026
Books

I read a lot, but I also seem to buy a fair number of books and not read them – the moment of ‘need’ outpaced by yet another book that has jumped to the top of the #tbr list. I mostly get books from the library (I’ve got 11 books on hold there as of […]

Making Space: Little Routines

November 21, 2025

Last night I hosted the monthly zoom meetup for my online community on the topic of the small but important things we do to set ourselves up to feel good in our day, and little things we might add to our morning or evening routines to protect our peace as we move full speed into the holidays.

I speak to this one idea often: how the world can make us look for big dramatic leaps, but success is often in small shifts that change our course over time.
