This weekend I will be officiating a week long soccer tournament in San Diego California. My partner, Grace, flew in this afternoon to join me in San Diego for the weekend, so that she and I can get some work done when I am not officiating. I am very grateful for the opportunity to officiate…

I am grateful for all those that were working the morning shift in the new emergency wing of MarinHealth Medical Center. I they were so kind and caring. I have a tear in my left calf; not that big a deal. And, it is good to know for sure what is creating the pain, know…

Today my day began at a client’s facility at Five-Thirty in the morning; I then drove to Forty miles south to attend school for five hours. I finished my day by sailing in a race that was held in Long Beach. It was a very good day and I am glad that it was the…

I am grateful today for the energy I had. I attribute it to a friend reaching out – one I hadn’t spoken with for quite some time. I had a wonderful catch-up last night; made it to Studio Thirty this morning. Got five in – and still have a wonderful, glow inside me. It’s been…

Last night, I had the wonderful honor to hang out with Jonah. We actually hung out in what will soon – and at my age, January 2023 is soon – be his neighborhood. We had, as Jonah put it (paraphrasing): “An expensive pizza, considering what you ended up with.” Because I didn’t want all the…

I am grateful for the night I am grateful for the shadows in which I may hide away I am grateful for the dark I am grateful for the moon I am grateful for another day… in this month of June.

The students were divided…
