This post is dedicated to my busy Bea.  Bea, I miss watching you eat V-E-R-Y slowly.  I always loved that you ate so carefully.  You are a model of good clean thinking, moving and eating. Yes, darlin’ I see you.  🙂 My students and I are doing a project-based learning activity on health for the…

This post is dedicated Miss Shalimar.  You are stronger than you think you are, Darlin’ 🙂 Forgive me, my sweet sketchy scribes, if I go on a bit about my new class.  They are a great bunch of kids. This year, I decided to dispense with the usual All About me posters and books my grade…

I’m going to jump on my soap box today and proclaim that Meditation ROCKS! Further more, I feel that everyone should be doing it! But  – lots of folks still don’t get WHY to do it or HOW to do it. Why should you be meditating every day?  Meditation helps you ground yourself and get…

This post is dedicated to Purity.  Thank you for watching over Kris during his difficult night.  You were his angel and I know he was in good hands. So, now you’ve let yourself feel the emotional pain.  What’s next? You learn to slow down your thinking/feeling so you can more effectively process the pain. (More…

This post is dedicated to my father who never lost the opportunity for a “teachable moment.” I’m sure you’ve heard your local gym enthusiast utter the phrase, ” No Pain, No Gain.” I know I used to cringe when I heard this.  And when I FINALLY decided to do something about my weight problem, I…

Learning to Say I’m Sorry

Gentle readers, I’m not going to pretend that I’m some kind of an expert at apologizing. Because I’m not. Tonight, I’m a student of the apology.  And I confess, I’m still learning. Saying the words, I’m sorry are not all that they are cracked up to be.  Often, it does not REALLY help people feel…

I’ve recently begun watching Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen on Amazon.  Watching the gallant, yet prideful Mr. Darcy fall slowly, but ardently in love with Elizabeth Bennett is always great fun.

I think I’m going to start writing weekly instead of daily.  There are several reasons for this… I don’t think my daily writing is very good writing.  I’m so concerned about getting it out every day that I believe quantity has over taken quality.  That is not good.  I keep thinking about something Ben Franklin…
