Hold On

On a daily basis I thank the lord for my health, food, shelter and the opportunities that is provided to me.  I also pray that I recognize the opportunities and take action on them.  That is the biggest part of any success, ACTION! I am grateful for the opportunities that the lord provides; I am…

Binoculars

I can remember being at the beach house with the family and someone would see something out in the ocean, usually a whale or dolphins, and my mom would look through our binoculars to get a better view of whatever it was that we saw.  I currently own three pairs of binoculars.  They really do…

Live Large

I am very grateful for my faith in God.  Life happens and lessons are learned; my belief in the one God allows me to know that if I stay true to myself and to others, work to make this world a better place for all to live, that my life will move forward in a…

Pass the salt

I am grateful for the ability to do and be whatever I want to do and be in this life.

Grateful tidings

I don’t know why I woke up just now  but I am grateful that I did. ♥ ♥

Luxury

I really am living a great life!  Even though I am not currently financially well off, not even close, I am living a great life!  Money can always be made; but making special memories and having opportunities, learning new things…this is what makes life so special.  Sharing this wonderful life with an absolutely beautiful person,…

Margaritaville

Another great entertainer, person has set their sails to travel beyond the sun. Jimmy Buffet.  He entertained us; he made a lot of money and he gave some of that money to causes that he championed.   I wish that I could have sat with him, discussing the ocean and margaritas. He will be missed, every…

Something about the water

Tonight, over dinner, a friend and I were discussing the lure of the ocean; the itch to sail on the waters. In his case he wants to be a Master Engineer working in the engine room on the big ships. I just want to be on any vessel out on the water. We are both…

Aunt K.

Yesterday, Grace and I, had dinner with my Zia K. and her husband. The last time we saw them was through a screen door, during the Covid pandemic. It was great to sit down and catch up with both her and her husband. She is my aunt by marriage; meaning that she was married to…

Ramblin’ Man

Today I had the privilege of driving across two-thirds of our state.  I used Highway 99 and eventually cut over to Highway 5 in Stockton.  I stopped in Visalia, Woodland and have ended up at my sister’s house just outside of Davis.  This is a business trip and I will probably be driving back on…

Foraging

“What do you want from life?” What a profound question. I am pretty sure that what we want is constantly changing. I know that what I want now is much different that when I was in High School or college. I think that no matter what we want and what we work for or strive…

Knowledge is power

This week I have been working with a client, on a project that is going on year number six. As my partner and I sit with individuals discussing what it is that they do and how they need the “system” to work for them, I realize that I actually do know the Distribution/ Warehousing business…
