Autumn is in the air
This past weekend was far calmer than the last few due to all of the moving and getting the house up for sale. So it seemed almost poetic to see the season change so abruptly over the course of a few days. We went from having some crazy hot weather to overcast days and chilly… — read more

Guilt and body image issues.
My planned walks early in the mornings Monday through Wednesday did not happen this week. Moving over the weekend left me exhausted and there is still so much to do in the house to get things where they should be. I feel guilty, because I know that where there is a will there is a… — read more

First night in the new home
I’m now typing this from my new home. I really like the new neighborhood and the brand new house. However, it feels strange. I think of my nightly routines and the spots around the house where I would like to sit or lie down. It was just a night ago, and already it feels like… — read more

If you haven’t heard of the Pomodoro method, I’d highly recommend doing a quick internet search on it. You can… — read more

I’m planning for a healthier lifestyle
Over the past several years, I have made many failed attempts to get myself running again. I’m going to start another attempt next week. The different things about this attempt is that I signed myself up for a half-marathon that is taking place on January 1, 2022. The plan is to start next week once… — read more

Busy bee and moving again.
I’m ashamed that I haven’t written here for a few weeks, but I’ve been incredibly busy and haven’t found or made the time to take a few moments and write. I have now made the transition to working from the office fifty percent of the time. I wish I was still working entirely from home,… — read more

At the office after 521 days
After 521 days, I finally set foot in my office. I will only be going in once a week for the time being, but even this feels like such a chore. Not because of the work, but because of the added time having to get ready in the morning and of course the drive to… — read more

Daydreams of a simpler life
I am constantly seeking to better manage my time to do all of the things I want to do and, of course, all of the things I need to do. I have never quite reached a place where I am completely satisfied with how I manage my time. I try to tell myself that the… — read more
