This past Sunday was a perfect day for so many reasons. It was so good that I called my brother in the morning just to let him know that it was a great day. I am grateful that there are more Sundays in my life than Mondays.

Happy Birthday, Mom
I am deeply grateful for my immediate family. I have experienced deeply gratifying interactions with all of them today. And… we all are hear via mi madre. Happy Birthday, Mom.
In the Middle of
I am grateful that all is well in our family home. It ain’t perfect, sure – it is quite human though. And I am grateful that we are all doing alright tonight.
What is this?
I am grateful for my brother’s post, it triggered a thought in me. Those may be few and far between….LOL. It is interesting, I do not watch the news or listen to it on the radio. The only newspaper that I read is The LOG; boating news for California and the West Coast. Lately I feel that…
Mondays
I am a wet mess. I don’t live up to what I believe I am capable of. I waste time; procrastinate. I continually break agreements. I watch my mind and emotions shift and change moment to moment… nothing solid. Everything in question. I am a hot mess. I am grateful for myself.
Another Day, Another Ocean

On the Water
It seems that I have had more opportunities to spend time on the ocean. As much as I love officiating the sport of futbol/soccer, I love being on, by and in the ocean. I have been asked by several friends and neighbors to captain, or accompany them on their boat’s. It doesn’t matter what the…
Springs Eternal
I am grateful for the HOPE that springs eternal. It is in the looking forward; healing forward. We forgive, choose our perspective – support PEACE / LOVE strongly. I am grateful for the dreamers and the dream.
Family and Friends
This past Sunday I drove from Southern California to the Bay Area to help my partner move some of her stuff out of her Auntie’s storage shed. We filled up her little pickup truck but still had stuff sitting out that we wanted to take to the Goodwill, we just did not have any room…
