Team Efforts

Being a former soccer player, coach and now I officiate, I know what “Team Effort” means.   As great as Pele, Messi and Ronaldo are or were, they never single-handily won a game or tournament; they had ten other players, coaches and support personnel helping them. I feel very grateful that I have a wonderful team…

sober off this

I am grateful for GHD. Tonight I heard Mo’Nique talk about the power of partnership; to have someone with you that let’s you know you’re not crazy. “Hey, baby, you got this! Let’s go!” I realized I do not have that. The one I walk with, trusting in that I’m not crazy—is G-D. And the…

Helping Hands

Today I am grateful for all of the people who help me in this life. Some of these people barely know me if they know me at all; but they are told by someone or some divine power that they should help me. Then there is my family and friends who I know that offer…

Idle Hands

I am grateful that I have no time for idle hands… if you see me wasting time; slap me I agreed to come onboard as production manager for a short shooting in March. we had our first official class for Drama 143 that accumulates in live performances of Look On in Anger; I play I…

It is stuck there

What an incredible month this has been! I have learned quite a bit of stuff; especially about myself. I am so blessed with all that I have been given. It could all go away tomorrow and I would wake up and find a way to have a positive day. I would begin the work to…

When You Decide to Give Us No Money

I am grateful for the work co-producer/co-host, Marc Wendt, and I have done with our podcast, Moped Outlaws. I just was checking out our third episode; we’ve come a long way, baby! The title of this post is derived from something I say early in the third episode. Marc and I are about five minutes…

It is appreciated

Tomorrow I will complete my first month at my new job. Today I received a nice email from one of the people that works in our financial office, helping with HR. She informed me that in the short time that I have been there she has enjoyed working with me and that others have told…

Henny Youngman

It has been a long day and I am very tired. I am grateful for people like Henny Youngman and one-liners.

An Extraordinary Machine

Today I am grateful for my body; it acted appropriately today. I had inhaled a giant of a pill, one half a dose of a supplement I take daily. And believe me — these pills are ginormous! I struggle to swallow them on a good day. And today…? Today, the one went down the wrong…

Early and Easy

Some days just take a lot. So tonight, I am grateful that I can retire early. Tomorrow is a new day. Take it early and get busy. Tonight? Settle into a smooth groove… Call it a day (after I walk the dog).

It is a Wonder

I feel the power of God all around me.  Lately it seems that every door or gate that I have walked through, God is holding it open for me. I do not subscribe to any, one religion; but I do believe in One, Powerful, Loving God.  You may call God whatever you want.   I believe…
