Octobers’s Personal Note on Fall Changes!
I’m in heaven looking out my office window from my home and seeing the gorgeous fall colors on the trees on our street. It seems as though they are changing right before my eyes! This is the season of change, that’s for sure….Nature in her wisdom is getting ready for the winter of her cycle. As I write this, it occurs to me that is exactly what I’ve been up to as well. I’ve been out in the yard on the weekends, trimming away spent flowers, shaping the new growth on…

I had such a great summer!
Wow, here we are in September already! I had such a great summer. The weather here in the Northwest was some of the best I can remember since moving here 15 years ago.

5 Quick Ways to Be Inspired instead of Stressed!

When that happens, I notice how my mood changes. I notice I start feeling less joy in being out…
How’s your summer been?
How’s your summer been so far? Mine has been great! I love summers! I have especially been enjoying this summer because we started it early this year. We actually got some really nice May and June weather. That’s not always a given here in the Northwest. So, having a milder spring/early summer (not as much rain-not as cool) was especially a bonus, as I’m sure you are aware the Northwest is not known for its sunshiny weather most of the year! And, it has continued to be the type of summer that…
