The Power of UMHH…..
The spoken word is quite powerful. This has been exemplified since the time of creation – “And God said, ‘Let it be’ and it was. And it was good.” Ever since the beginning of time we people have understood the power behind what comes out of the mouth. Even when what comes out of our .. read more
Polishing Your Act
My father had a regular routine on the weekends, about monthly, of polishing his shoes. Perhaps since I’m a process-loving person, I enjoyed watching this routine. It started with setting up a space for several pairs of shoes to sit – whether on the floor in front of him while he sat in his favorite .. read more
Mondays – in the rough
Over the weekend I saw a video of a country recording titled something like, Who are You When I’m not Looking? Really great perspective on the fact that most of us are slightly different in public than we are on our own. This leads me to today’s topic – Monday behavior. Keeping the same theme .. read more

In a Slump?
Here it is the day after a long weekend, and if you’re like me, you forgot something big time. You dragged your tired butt out of bed (not because you didn’t sleep – you did), after hitting the snooze 3 times. You grumbled about the early hour, the desire for more sleep and then you .. read more
Cancellation
Because I have so often stepped into an airport in search of a screen detailing flight status updates, I can relate to what people go through when they realize what they expected to happen was cancelled, forgotten or even ignored. As kids we fear whether our loved ones will forget our birthday, let alone not .. read more
The Weak Get Going
Maybe it’s because I used to teach and my day ended before 3pm. Or because I’m ADD. Or because my energy is low. When it gets to 3pm or so I also want to move on. To get going – away from the task at hand. It’s like when I’m on a treadmill. I get .. read more
