Lesson learned

I made a mistake yesterday that cost me a couple hundred dollars – oops! The tire pressure light went on in my car the night before, so I planned on calling the mechanic yesterday. I checked the tires both that night and yesterday morning, and could find nothing wrong with any of them. So I . . . → Read More: Lesson learned

Letting go

I am doing the best I can, and sometimes I feel that’s not very good. I persevere, because it’s either that or give up, and I don’t think I am a quitter.

That does bring up another issue, however. Sometimes is is smarter to let go than to hang on. I used to think that . . . → Read More: Letting go

We are all the same

We are all one! Please don’t let someone tell you it is us against them. We are all in this together, and we will sink or swim together.

Think about it – if the only way for someone to win is to get us to turn against each other, then has he really won?

I am tired of political ads

I have to admit that I am getting very tired of all these political ads, from all sides. I have said this before; I notice that others are saying it also. Perhaps we need to change to a system where one is not allowed to speak of what their opponent is going to do, but . . . → Read More: I am tired of political ads

I really wish that everyone felt their voice counted and would vote. I understand why some people don’t feel this way.

And the only way . . . → Read More: Please vote

Writing

I belong to a writing group that really floats my boat. It is all women (not that there is anything wrong with men, but it feels good and safe just the way it is), and we generally meet once a month. We don’t all make it every time, and that’s okay – life continues to . . . → Read More: Writing

I am doing the best that I can

I often feel that I am just not living up to what I should be living up to. I feel like I “should” be doing this, or I “should” be doing that. Maybe the issue is that I really don’t know what it is that I am supposed to be living up to. Or maybe . . . → Read More: I am doing the best that I can

Turn about is fair play

I am very tired of hearing this from people: “Why didn’t she come forward sooner? Why did she wait so long?” Have you been paying attention? Have you seen how people treat someone who comes forward with rape or harassment charges? It must be one of the scariest things in the world to do, to . . . → Read More: Turn about is fair play
