One of those workweeks where there seems to be no end in sight is this one. However, I am confident that if I simply continue to work slowly, the task will be completed on its own. When faced with a demanding task or a large amount of work, it is best to avoid passing judgment […]

Having had a less-than-ideal night of sleep once again, I am feeling a little sleepy. I seem to alternate between getting a lot of rest and having a restless night. My intuition tells me that I need to change some things in my life, so I’m evaluating what could be done to make it better. […]

I recently ate a large apple, and now I feel rather full. I did, in fact, eat an apple with dinner the night before. I was starving when I got home last night from the beach and since there was nothing in the house, I made a smoothie with apples, kefir, and peanut butter that […]

I still have about two hours of work to do as it is 12:30 pm. I also have a purchaser to train at 4 pm, so I must move quickly to allow myself time for dinner and some downtime before the training session. I’ll push myself to finish these quickly so that I have time […]

Before I leave for the day’s bike ride, I’ll try my hardest to squeeze in one more article. Being able to bike or walk a short distance to get anywhere in this small town is such a pleasure. By bike, I can get to the ocean in two minutes from where I live, and it […]

I enjoyed the a/c on any overheated summer time day. The soothing hum of the a/c lulled me to sleep as I reclined in my chair. But this entire peaceful oasis was soon to be transformed into a murky mess, and I was confused about why. From the corner of the room, I heard a […]

The hardwood floors in our house have always been a real source of tension between my loving wife and me. She enjoys walking around barefoot but dislikes walking on cold wood floors. While some people may have concerns with the flooring, I never have. I wanted to show her how much I enjoyed her as […]

Bonkers, my cat, sought safety next to the a/c as the neighborhood was engulfed in a heat wave. She could take refuge from the heat of the day and care about the gentle breeze there. She was a generic black pet which saying generic sounds terrible but had appealing orange esure. But she had a […]

Sunday’s could be fun, don’t you agree? Actually, you don’t have to agree but today is Sunday after all. This means that I have to go to work. This afternoon I awoke to a cold house and wondered why my roommate had not turned on the dial control device to the respected 72 degrees. She […]
