Another Year Older
Posted on 30. May, 2010 by Deb.
I turned 42 last week.
I gave full reign to my Gypsy Soul and Workaholic Personality on my birthday: boarded a plane at 5:45 AM and was in a meeting in Philadelphia by 12:30 and ended the day with a dinner meeting, which put me getting to bed around 1 AM. It was a good [...]

Restoring the Past
Posted on 06. May, 2010 by Deb.
When I moved blogs from my dot net to this domain, I deleted more blog posts than I imported back in. At the time, I had felt I was making the right decision as the man I was seeing was jealous of the men in my past, some of which (The Pilot Guy specifically). I [...]

So Good To Me
Posted on 03. May, 2010 by Deb.
For the first time in weeks, I stayed up the first time I woke today.
Usually, the animals wake me between 5:30 and 6:30 to remind me that they are in need of food right now. Today, it was 6:05 AM. Instead of feeding everyone, keeping my eyes closed to keep the light out and [...]

In the Vein of Being Public with My Goals
Posted on 02. May, 2010 by Deb.
It’s Sunday morning. It’s the perfect day for sleeping in thanks to the cloudy skies and the almost-rainy feeling in the air, My body is doing that lanquid pull back to my bed, insisting that the mattress is what Goldilocks would wish for (not too soft but not too hard) and the sheets have that [...]

In my seeking for higher voices (besides the amazing folks around me), I have discovered Tonya Williams of Just B Living. I signed up for her (free) Series called “14 Days to a Lighter You”. Today is day four, and in addition to her emailed message, there was a link to this blog post (a [...]

Higher Voices
Posted on 06. Apr, 2010 by Deb.
The first day back from an extended trip seems to pass more quickly than other days. I was successful with the completion of more than a dozen things on my laundry list, though taking bites out of some of the bigger tasks is going to be harder and take a heck of a lot more [...]

Laundry List
Posted on 04. Apr, 2010 by Deb.
I was fortunate to spend a portion of my time in one of my favorite places these past few days: the Courtyard of the Hotel Monaco.

(this photo taken in September 2008; not much has changed since then)
I didn’t get to spend as much time there as I would have liked, but part of traveling [...]

of Growth and Progression
Posted on 21. Feb, 2009 by Deb.
I usually hold my thoughts on focus, publicly, for All Things Girl, but this week I find it spilling out of me. My column for February, about what’s inside this heart of mine and remembering to follow it. It’s the extension of two of my words from last year – passion and courage. Especially courage. [...]

Base Camp One
Posted on 01. Feb, 2009 by Deb.
The gym used to be all about lifting weights. I did cardio, which I’m not a fan of, and rewarded myself with weights. Especially my favorite things: leg press and skull crushers. After being fussed at my a couple of massage therapists about inflexibility in my joints, and then after my “fit test” where I [...]

Hello 2009, Goodbye 2008
Posted on 01. Jan, 2009 by Deb.
From the outside looking in, the last few days 2008 have been quiet. I have been home, not traveling….and I’ve actually been staying at home much of the time, working around the house rather than being out and about. I have had dinner with friends and even went out to a club with Buddy Boy.
From [...]

And from Connecticut….

I did want to share a few of my photos. These first two are of the amazing foliage. I felt so blessed to be a part of those crisp days and glorious colors.
And this is Gillette Castle. Which, in some ways looks like Fred and Wilma should live there
And my favorite [...]

My Missing Column.
Posted on 11. May, 2008 by Deb.
I never finished a column for the May issue of ATG. That is the first issue in….ages…that I have not made a deadline. Yes, I have missed mid-issue updates, but the first time I haven’t hit the release of an issue.
I started three different columns, by the way. All of them updates [...]

GTD, Writing, and Courage
Posted on 26. Dec, 2007 by Deb.
Earlier this year (or was it last year?), Lor recommended a book by David Allen called “Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress Free Productivity”. Since I tend to have spells of too much on my plate….and want to get more done each day, I looked into it. It’s a truly fabulous [...]
