…be patient!
I have always been a worst case scenario planner! In my previous career, I believe it helped me to be a success! I would have almost every worst possible thing figured out before hand, usually when I should have been sleeping! Sometimes, experience forced me to think this way and in other times it was … Continue reading …be patient!
…a look back is a lesson too!
When you work full time, you have a keen sense of how many days left until you finally get a vacation. The time arrives and you eventually get to head somewhere (anywhere) that isn't work. You've got your trusty camera (on your phone) and discover new locations and things you didn't know. You snap that … Continue reading …a look back is a lesson too!
…a bit of sunshine helps!
If this was a typical year, we would just be getting home from our winter down south. I'd be returning to all the plants my friend and neighbour Carmon started for me along with hers.

…a little bit of hope!
I must admit I almost forgot all about the COVID 19 Virus and all the serious changes we've all had to make to our lives. It's been a long drawn out winter here at our place just west of Pigeon Lake.

…a true life lesson 102
Throughout my professional life I attended a number of seminars, workshops, and sessions geared towards personal development. There were many times I learned an updated technique or new method, but many times they seemed like a waste of time. Often, it wasn't until later that I would realize much of the information was productive, since … Continue reading …a true life lesson 102

Please watch the video below! I hope it gives you a few minutes of calm! In a world where almost everything I do is on a scale of 10 for the intense meter...this week is likely off the charts! Intensity is in my DNA! I've written about how intense a favorite piece of music is to … Continue reading …a pretty intense week!
…who knew exercising was so profound!
I just finished the most intense and profound elliptical session I have done in some time. Likely it was because of the constant stream of pandemic updates, the intensity of nearing the end of my workout time, or the very loud music. Whatever, I drifted off to a very deep place in my thoughts that … Continue reading …who knew exercising was so profound!
I didn’t know this…until now!
My initial blog site dealt with me turning 60 and after that huge milestone happened I changed my blog to Life Lessons 102. I intend it to address the new things I learn now that are somehow different but I never thought this would be my first topic. Long story short...we needed some work done … Continue reading I didn’t know this…until now!
