While watching the figure skaters at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, I came up with this theory on how we skate through life. If you think about it, just like a pro athlete, we spend years doing the same things over and over and get really good at whatever the program is for […]
What if I told you that you could have or be anything you ever dreamed of? Would you believe me? Why not? What made you believe that what you desire isn’t possible? I would put my money on the fact that you heard it from someone else. Other’s Opinions Aren’t Truths If someone else […]
I saw this reel on YouTube from Shelly @fabulous50s, a woman around my age who asked women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond to share what makes them special and unique, to help others gain from their skills, ideas, and wisdom on social media. She said that younger people in their 20s and 30s are […]
I’m a chocolate girl. I love dark chocolate with pretzels or nuts. I make my own chocolate bark with those things, and it is yummy! I try not to eat it every day, but according to the latest health studies, dark chocolate is good for us. So, what could be better than that? The […]

With the new year upon us, there’s often a feeling to start fresh and create a new chapter in our lives. One way to start with a clean slate is to clean the slate. When we purge the old, it makes room for the new. Sure, I’m referring to the things around us that block […]
One can’t help but reminisce about past Christmases this time of year. Being a kid at Christmas was the best! I always believed in the magic of Christmas. It wasn’t all about getting presents (although getting a new toy was pretty sweet); it was a feeling that made it special. I found peace […]
My last blog was about life beats. I wrote about how life has ups and downs, like the beating of our hearts. There’s even a neat video of a heartbeat. Check it out here. The other day, I had a bad day. We all have them. That’s when our reality gets a little too heavy, […]
