Just home from 5 days away visiting relatives. Is anyone NOT happy when they return home after being away? As great as any vacation is, coming home is always soooo sweeeeeet. I am sitting on the couch, in my jammies, a glass of Pinot at my elbow, and a little dish of those little chocolate … Continue reading Being Home
Fight at Starbucks
I am in the same Starbucks as yesterday. There is no wifi where I'm staying so this is where I come to check email. This morning I set up in a little corner table where 2 women were sitting having a conversation one table over from me in the opposite corner. It didn't take me … Continue reading Fight at Starbucks
The Year of Warrior 1
I am sitting in a Starbucks in North Carolina, Nora Jones is playing "Come Away With Me" on the sound system. I have just written my January newletter to all my yoga peeps telling them about the New Year's offerings. When I am away from home it is really hard to keep up my rituals. … Continue reading The Year of Warrior 1
A Box of Time
So, it's over. (Xmas, that is.) It was sweet --and certainly buttery! I got some techy gifts (a new internet router and a new version of Wanda, my GPS) some clothes and of course, books. But what I really wanted was not under the tree. What I really wanted, and ask for every year and … Continue reading A Box of Time
Cookie Porn
I have come to the sad conclusion that Christmas is made of butter. This is unfortunate. I wish Christmas was made of kale and tofu and mineral water, but it isn't. It's made of butter cookies, and candied yams and fudge and Royal gin fizzes. And champagne. And "You have to have one of these, … Continue reading Cookie Porn
Happy Givemas
This morning I took all the food that was donated by all the yogarians over to the Food Pantry. I had never been to the Food Pantry, so had no idea what to expect. It was small, and filled with, well, …food. The woman I had spoken to on the phone was there, and she … Continue reading Happy Givemas
Boldness in the New Year?
I’ve been reading my journal from this past year and you know what? I never do what I say I’m going to do, or what I really want to do. Now, I realize I’m saying this hot on the heels of yesterday’s “Hurray for Me I Did a Year of Holosync Without a Miss!” braggadocio … Continue reading Boldness in the New Year?
One Year of Holosync
Yesterday was my 1-year anniversary with Holosync. 365 consecutive days without a miss. Have I ever been this consistent with anything? I don’t think so. As a kid I would give up things for Lent, but how long is Lent? 6 weeks? But with Lent you “give up” stuff. With Holosync I added something; I … Continue reading One Year of Holosync
Rules for Retailers
**As most of my friends know, I have been reading (obsessively) books about “The New Business” paradigm for well over a year now. Seth Godin, Gary Vaynerchuk, Alan Webber, Chris Brogan, among the luminaries. I am telling you this, right now, at the start of this post, only because it might help explain (a little) … Continue reading Rules for Retailers
Not Chuck
Sleep is my beauty secret. So now you know. With enough sleep I sparkle. My mind is sharp and I say witty things, (bon mots, if you must know.) Without enough sleep I almost back the car out of the garage before opening the garage door. Without enough sleep, there isn’t enough concealer in the … Continue reading Not Chuck
