Well, here we are at the start of another new year. 2025. Wow! It sounds futuristic, doesn’t it? Yet here we are. Some of us sailed through 2024 unscathed. Others not so much.

Scrolling Through Life
What is the first thing you do when you wake up? Do you stretch and thank your higher power for giving you another day? Do you meditate? Or do you grab your phone first? Do you check what happened in the world while you slept the night away? British podcaster and life coach Jay ShettyContinue reading “Scrolling Through Life”
What’s in that closet?
For years I have said our house is too small. I just realized today that it is not. It is the perfect size for us. The problem is not with the size of the house. The issue lies with the amount of stuff we have and keep amassing. I don’t know what the problem is.Continue reading “What’s in that closet?”
Back to School. Not.
The leaves are starting to turn colour. The evening air has a crispness that only means one thing: it’s back to school!

Some were hoping that once they put the tree up, that would change. Some said they wereContinue reading “Holiday Stress 1, Christmas Spirit 0”
Bionic Generation
The producers of The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman, starring Lee Majors and Lindsay Wagner, respectively, sure had foresight when these two iconic TV series first aired in the 1970s. Who would have thought that just a few decades later, “bionics” would be so commonplace? (Do you realize that Lee Majors isContinue reading “Bionic Generation”
It’s All About Balance
In past blogs, we’ve chatted about procrastination and time management. That’s all fine and dandy, but no matter how good you are at managing your time, you are bound to end up doing some juggling.
