CHANGE AND BALANCE BALANCE AND CHANGE April 27th, 2016 (I hope this isn’t a Flowers for Algernon day…) 4-27-16 Balance coupled with Change is the answer to everything. I realized this today!

The Muse Wakes Early…
The muse wakes early in this house, and I have learned a lot in the last 9 days. Here I was, simply wanting to get into ‘good habits,’ and write something – anything – every day. Oh – and exercise. Well – I am proud of myself – I have done both. I thought writing […]
Just you wait ’til your CEO gets home!

The Unexpected Pun

He liked to tell me that HE laughed at real-life, funny incidents. Well – Mike could laugh at mathematical equations. Mike went to OXFORD… ‘Nuff said. What he never understood about me […]
