That’s me in the middle.
Can you see me? The waiter at the restaurant definitely couldn’t!
With my red hair and preference for bright clothes, as my friend Doug says, I “don’t do well at hide and seek.”
At yet, for some reason, tonight, the waiter treated me as if I was not there.
When he and his assistant [...]

Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat…
At first I thought there was a woodpecker in the library.
I listened more carefully.
Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat…
Each word was a stand alone. No inflection, no pause, no nothing. Just words - one meaningless word after another.
Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat…
I rounded the corner and came upon a woman “reading” what looked like a homework assignment to a man.
Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat…
Finally she stopped. She asked the man, “Did [...]

Do you greet your missing members with a big smile?

James has been working out with a Master’s swim team for several years - and truly enjoys getting to know the people he swims with.

“Glad to see you!” James greeted his buddy.
At [...]

Yesterday I felt like crud.
I didn’t get sick once through the winter. Bring on a beautiful day - and I’m feeling like the Mack truck ran over me. UGH!
Unfortunately, I didn’t have the luxury of a totally blotto day…
Instead, I had the opportunity to be interviewed by a major reporter.
She was working against a fairly [...]

Boy could she move!
While at the Top of the Park, I noticed a young woman with red hair dancing beautifully with her hula hoop.
James and I decided to get a closer look…
She had relocated to a side lawn and brought out several hula hoops to share with anyone moved to join her.
A variety of men, women and children [...]

They performed on poles more than 13 feet tall - swaying, dancing, acting and more.
And we sat with 100s on the ground looking up at the circus in the sky - not quite believing what we saw.
Last night, James and I returned to the Top of the Park (TOP) to see Strange Fruit, a Melbourne, Australia-based performing [...]

James loves barbecue season.
Me, I’m not quite as fond because it means a lot of burnt meals.
James is an amazing cook. If I’m home and we barbecue mid-week during the day, I get a scrumptious meal.
The after work and weekend barbecued meals tend to go up in flames!
What’s the problem?
We live on a corner lot.
Our [...]

When’s the last time you got to really play with something you feel passionately about?
Your heart feels light and you just know really great things are going to come of it…
Sort of like hugging a dog on a beautiful summer day while sitting under a tree…
(Not a dog lover? Insert your preferred hugging partner.)
It just [...]
