NUTS!

Nuts! Is it just me, or do you, too, sometimes wonder, “… what was she thinking… ”? An early morning story had me wondering that just today….

Excuse me, PLEASE!

Is it just ME, or do you, too, know some people who take twice as much time telling you why they can’t do something than actually just doing it? Over the many years I have encouraged women to be all they can be.  I have known some who never gave themselves the credit they deserved. … Continued

Socrates and me!

Is it just ME – and Socrates, or are you, too, always curious as to the ‘who, what, where, when why and how’. I was blessed to be raised in a family that delighted in my ‘need to know’.  I never remember simply being today, “Because”, in answer to any of my questions.  I was … Continued

We survived!

Is it just ME, or do you, too, wonder how the world survived for the approximate 38 minutes Facebook went down on the morning of June 19, 2014? OMG… it was in the 4 A.M. hour and I was up listening to the morning news.  The announcement was made:  Facebook was down! I lay there … Continued
