An Apple A Day

You’ve probably heard that saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” While the saying is a reminder for us to eat healthy foods and incorporate daily habits which promote our overall well-being, that’s not exactly what this post is about.  I recently was watching Oprah Winfrey on her Life Class

The Buds of Spring

While I realize that this past winter here in New York hasn’t exactly been “typical,” and many days felt like Spring, I can’t help but get excited when I “see” signs of Spring around me. While I absolutely love flowers, buds on a bush or tree are one of my favorite signs of Spring. It [...]

A Dog’s Love

I have had two dogs in my life and they both meant the world to me. The first one was named Suzy. She was such a very special dog. She wouldn’t bark to wake me up in the morning to say that she had to go outside: she would sit and stare at me until [...]

Today Is A Good Day!

It’s been awhile since I posted here. That seems to happen a lot with me. Having several blogs, a part-time business and a full-time job in a field I love means I do things when I feel inspired. Today I was inspired by my friends at GoodVibeUniversity, where I read a thread in the forums [...]

Relaxing

I appreciate that I know how to relax and I’m relaxing right now, after having gone through this conference I was in charge of.  It has been a learning experience and there were times when I didn’t take care of myself because of it.  Many people hurried out of here tonight, in their rush to [...]

Knowing How to Build A Campfire

I was a Girl Scout.  I also used to camp a lot with my parents. I learned many things about camping and cooking outside over the years. While I rarely do that now, today I’m reminded of the importance of knowing how to build a campfire. I know how to do it and I appreciate [...]

Today I am appreciating the value of a team. I am currently Chair of my professional association for New York and New Jersey and responsible for this conference that I am at right now. We have a core team of people from both states, each with their different roles. None of us get paid for [...]

My Abundant Supply of Water

Today I am in awe and appreciation of my abundant supply of water. It’s something I definitely don’t take for granted. I’ve been in places where water wasn’t so readily available and I’m so appreciative that it always is around when I want it: to drink, to bathe, shower, do laundry, water my plants,

Aw, Fridays!

You know that feeling at the end of a work week, in anticipation of a weekend of relaxation and fun? It’s that feeling many of us who work a Monday through Friday routine get on Fridays. The “Thank God It’s Friday!” comments we hear and speak conjure up feelings of relief that the work week [...]

“Meow” – In Appreciation of Cats and Kitties

“Meow.” What’s that? I said, “I’m a cat lover!” How about you? I’m also a dog lover (but I’ll save elaborating on that for another post). I grew up with cats and had both dogs and cats in some of my adult life. At this moment in time, I have neither a cat nor a [...]
