Dad’s Uber: On Duty
March 29, 2023
Image by Rodolfo Clix via Pexels. I took another swig of coffee. My eyes were bloodshot, and I shifted in my seat again, but I still had two hours of driving. When I came to a rest stop, I pulled over and got out of my car to stretch my legs. When I felt better, … More Dad’s Uber: On Duty
The Subtle Shaping of Our Brains
March 27, 2023
In my daughter’s second grade classroom, the teacher has arranged it into tables of 4 students. At this point about 2/3 of the way through the year, I think she has a good idea of strengths and weaknesses and a lot of experience finding good combos. The latest grouping that my daughter, Miss O, is … More The Subtle Shaping of Our Brains
Let the Doodling Commence 😉
March 26, 2023
I am the least tech-savvy person I know. Honestly. The hubster and DD – darling daughter – know that left on my own, I’d need to survive without Wi-fi and all the other accoutrements of life in the digital…oh so digital…age because I think most tech innovations are part of a magical mystery tour…all psychedelic … More Let the Doodling Commence 😉
Bias Is For The Birds
March 25, 2023
My humor and aging series is coming to a close today. I’ve borrowed a few ideas, also a few words over this month, but this final post, okay besides the included quote, is my wisdom alone. Here it is: Allow yourself to change your mind. Allow yourself to adapt to a new idea or situation. … More Bias Is For The Birds
Episode 10: The Power of Intuition
March 24, 2023
In Episode 10 of the podcast, Wynne talks with healer, meditation teacher, and artist Deirdre Wilcox. We talk about Deirdre’s journey to become a healer, how she used her time undergoing treatment for breast cancer to integrate all that she’d been taught about the mind-body-spirit. We also delve into the power of our intuition and why we mistrust it, why we need to place meditation up there on the list of daily habits like flossing, the danger of going shopping after meditation class, and how transformation might be exactly what we need to live our deepest and best lives. At the very end of our conversation, we left in an outtake where Wynne offer herself up as an example of how mulishly resistant humans can be when it comes to tackling things that could make our lives better. … More Episode 10: The Power of Intuition

That’s gonna leave a scar
March 22, 2023
When the pitcher dropped the ball, before picking it up and throwing to me, I knew the play at second base was going to be close. I prepped myself for the collision. The runner was much taller and bigger than me. What I wasn’t expecting was the runner sliding hard and his metal spikes coming … More That’s gonna leave a scar
Doing the Best I Can
March 20, 2023
Ah, Frank, I feel you. There are many days in which “I’m doing the best I can” is what I mutter to the Universe…repeatedly. But what about my view of what others are doing? I was in a meeting the other day with a colleague that was holding court and catastrophizing. That’s my description of … More Doing the Best I Can
