catching up, getting ahead.
As I struggle to catch up and get ahead in preparation for my busier than usual week ahead, I watch outside my windows the people who embracing life. They aren’t home doing chores, crossing things of to-do lists. Either they are ahead, or are falling behind, or don’t have lists like mine. I’m jealous. How

Traveling has been on the back burner for some time now. I haven’t been out of town since January, when we went to High Falls State Park. In the past, there have been months when we would only be home for a handful of days. But those days are behind us. And I’ve run out

time for a change.
As much as Phelix loves his happy place (Phelix’s Glade) and I love to take him there, I realized that it is time for us to add more places to our hiking roster. While it is *easy* to go to the same place over and over and not have to think about what we’ll encounter

As I finished up my work morning and headed to volunteer at the Red Cross, I was feeling low. Very low. Thinking about it, I realized that the root of my lowness — feeling unsupported. I pride myself in my self-motivation and independence. I work well on my own and solve my own problems as
