Friends

by Pam Godwin

The first two visits were easy. In the past three weeks, I’ve been lucky enough to see two very dear and usually faraway friends. My bestest friend from college who moved to Australia too many years ago was unexpectedly in New York for only a few hours before catching a flight when she gave me […]

Seven Days of Smiles

by Karen Amster-Young

This week I discovered that Dr. Seuss was actually wrong once.  He said, “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”  I know what he is trying to say.  I just think he’s wrong.  The fact is, we all say too much […]

Ready, Set, Run

by Pam Godwin

I downloaded an App from  Apple’s iTunes store this week. Not so different, new or exciting? Well, it wasn’t just any App. It was something that represents a big “to do” for me.  And then, I actually did it. What did I do? I went running. And I used a silly little App on my […]

“Don’t underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can’t hear, and not bothering.”    – Winnie-the-Pooh Sometimes old friends can be prophetic. Somewhere about the middle of August, I was having dinner with a very good friend visiting from the West Coast. We’ve known each other since […]

It’s Not Just About Us…

by Karen Amster-Young

Summer is quickly winding down.  The “End of Summer” blues are kicking in.  The few weeks that remain will be a whirlwind of last chance summer jaunts and vacations, BBQ’s with friends and planning our busy fall calendars.  Where did the time go?  As usual, summer is never long enough.  It’s a blur of beach, […]

Breaking from the Past

by Karen Amster-Young

Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting so….get on your way! — Dr. Seuss I hate this blog this week. I am not going to lie. It was only Week 6 and I just didn’t or couldn’t seem to do  “something big” that would be universally defined as “unique” or adrenaline-inducing or even potentially […]

Rain, Rain, Go Away

by Pam Godwin

96 socks, 40 pairs of underwear, 32 tee shirts, and 14 towels later (along with a host of other stuff that filled 2 enormous duffel bags each), the labeling and packing was done and my two girls were on their bus to sleep-away camp this week. I knew I was getting to my “52” very […]
