The week is chugging along in an odd way, but since time doesn't stop for anything, here we are at Thursday. 🙂 Without disclosing more than I care to in this space, I will speak for myself only and say that I currently feel great (physically). However, a COVID+ contact has been struggling with some… Continue reading Good among the not-so-good
Well, here we go. Life has served up a perfect opportunity to practice the "power of positive thinking", "reframing negatives", finding the good in crappy situations and all of the stuff I have been working on over the past few years. 🙂 We have embarked on a full blown quarantine around here, after having very… Continue reading An opportunity to practice positivity

But he has lost several people close to him in a short time span and it is heart breaking.… Continue reading Be happy now
One of 19 times riding Expedition Everest on this trip. Yep, definitely their favorite. I know Disney is always a hot topic in travel circles for families with kids.

Some people are seriously almost cult like in their Disney… Continue reading So, why Disney now?
Good morning! It's just after 6 am and I've been up a while already. My family always asks me why I still get up so early on the weekends. The answer? I just really love this time of day. It's quiet, peaceful, and... I don't know, it's just my favorite time! There are actually times… Continue reading More covid woes + gratitude ideas
