Today I'm thankful for sweet children in costumes for Halloween. This year was the first year I was able to celebrate with Finn and it was fun as a parent to experience. Although he had no awareness of the event, it was fun to do together.
Time for Reflection: Me Too
Me too. I don't identify sexual harassment and assault as only being experienced by women. I don't identify the assailant with always being a man. But what I do know, is it's prevalent and we live in a culture of "shame", secrecy, and disbelief. The "Me too" campaign has made me revisit some old haunts…

Today I'm grateful for silly squirrels. We feed them critter crunch in our backyard and I love mornings when I can watch them play and scavenge.

On one hand, it seems like everyone I know and love has been touched by cancer. My father, my friends, my friends's parents, my coworkers, and other family. Many of those people deal with it and…

Today I'm grateful for Toastmasters. This morning I had a bad morning. I was late leaving the house due to several unusual happenings. Traffic was a nightmare.
