5 Minutes to a more Positive Year

On January 30, 2020

What is one small action I can take today to feel more joy in my life?  What is one tiny step I can take to move forward on my goals?  These are the two questions I ask myself every morning in 2020. The idea comes from a book I have started my year with, The Joy of Appreciative Living by Jacqueline Kelm. 2019 was a rough year for me, lots

What Lifts You Up?

On September 12, 2019

One of my favorite places so far in Prague has been the Cathedral of St Vitus, St Wenceslas and St Adalbert at Prague Castle.

Chopsticks and Change

On May 9, 2019

I found this wooden box of beautiful silver chopsticks and soup spoons. I have two sets of them; place setting for 24. They’ve been buried in the back of a cabinet for years. Now that we are moving, I am discovering all kinds of long-lost treasures like this. These were given to me as a

On August 23, 2018

I had become immune to the drip. For a while, the sprayer function on my kitchen faucet hasn’t worked. Then an annoying tiny spurt of water from the corner of the downspout. And then…water dripping down the neck and pooling at the base. I started keeping a rag near the counter, so I could wipe
