Hello everyone! I hope you’re having a good long weekend. This is a re-post of an earlier article. As I wrap up two weeks of vacation, it’s good to remember as I head in the direction of home, what really matters. Take care and enjoy! Starting a business is hard! What’s more difficult yet is […]

The Sun is Shining and the Water’s Running

Finally it’s springtime. And we’re not experiencing one of those raging spring blizzards…yet. We will, but today the sun is strong and the water’s running in the ditches and along the curbs. The world feels brand new and I almost do, too. I have to say, I really enjoyed the response I got from my […]

More Like Her

Patient and selfless, she’s everything I want to be. I met a lady this summer that made me want to change my life, to slow down, and to focus on what matters. I suppose I met a hero, someone I aspire to be like. I’ve watched her work. She set up her workspace efficiently and […]

We are happy in proportion to the things we can do without.” (Henry David Thoreau) I’m about to say something so heretical, I can already hear the gasps of disbelief and nervous laughter all the way from the West Coast: I miss my old […]
