For me, email is my nemesis. No matter how many I delete, it seems 10 more show up. I have tried unsubscribing from many services, but they always seem to find a back door in. The main problem with the "junk" mail, is that it buries my essential business email. This has ramped up to the point where I ask my clients to not email me, but to call …
I am curious, because usually I will keep up my Christmas decorations until around January 1, but this particular year, I am sooooo over the holidays that I will be taking it down like, NOW! Maybe this year was too hectic and I did not really get to enjoy the season so I want the vestiges of it gone, maybe I need to clear my space for the new year …
As I get older, the loss of the holiday traditions that my mom carried on are now being eroded in my home. There are a few reasons for that, some because we are a mixed heritage household, some because time does not allow the leisure to participate, make, decorate the way I used to. But for me, the loss is felt most because I live so very far a …
There are many things in our day that can disrupt our normal flow, make you late for certain obligations (like blogging) and events that will have a lasting effect.... I know some of you will remember the blogs I have done in the past which included words of wisdom from our wonderful companion, Musha. Well, almost 2 weeks ago, Musha made it known …
This past weekend we had the pleasure of hosting the birthday of the century, literally! It was a ton of family from near and far as well as a smattering of great friends who gathered to honor an amazing woman, Stewart’s mom and my self proclaimed replacement mom. The comments of the party goers following the day warmed our hearts. I have said on …
What happened to our world? Our lives? Our society? It seems that nothing, absolutely nothing is "as it used to be". We live such fast paced existences, rarely slowing down to "smell the roses". I personally struggle to find the work life balance for myself that I pound into the heads of my staff. I want them to resist burnout, realizing that …
I find it hard to truly relax. My mind is always on overdrive. Between work, social activities, family business, worrying about my kids (grown adults) and trying to carve out some quality time for my honey and my puppy, it seems "I" get lost in the crunch. Everyone chime in on tips to help me mentally disconnect and just be....
It seems everywhere I turn these days I come across people with entitlement issues. Some ingrained. Some manufactured. Some deserved. The ingrained seem to originate from the wealth or stature in which you were raised. The manufactured type is the most vexing for me. It seems to be rampant in our youth of today. The seem to have a mistaken impressi …
and never give up! When you are feeling like all is lost, look around. There is invariable someone around you who is in a more precarious situation than you are. There is always hope. Point in case: I was honored to have recently closed a case that had been in my office for nearly 9 years. This poor gentleman client of mine was being deni …
While traveling recently I noticed a few habits that made me say "The French have it right!" All chairs at outdoor cafes face out toward the street (don't let the world pass you by); 99% of the retail stores were closed by 6:00 pm. Spend quality time not money; 99% of the restaurants stopped serving food by 10:00 pm - nothing good comes from eatin …
Musha always wants to know where I am going, where I have been, and did I bring him any treats from my travels? This week I had the pleasure of telling him that I had a blast while attending (co-hosting) our newest Gotham group - Lower Manhattan Dinner Group. What a night that was. He still insisted to know what HE got out of it. At which poi …
.... Happens - even when you least expect it ....Don't let it pass you by .... Is what you make of it. ....is just a bowl of cherries ...goes on. These are the things I remind myself when I am at a low point. What do you speak to your inner self to heal or push yourself forward?
For those that have always worried about the hype that "Social Security will not be around when I need it", the following Press Release from The Social Security Administration debunks that myth. Press Release | Press Office | SSA Further, I found a great article from Center on Budget and Policy Priorities July of 2022, that explains how the tr …
Every day you wake up is a GOOD DAY! Every bone you are thrown has some value. Every pat on the back (in Musha's case, head) is given with love or admiration, be grateful. Every day should end with appreciation of what you were given the grace to experience. Woof Woof
A little introduction is necessary... Musha is our rescue dog. Musha is black and large. Musha is a Staffordshire Terrier (aka pit bull). However, Musha does not let stereotypes rule his world. In the coming weeks you will all be introduced more to Musha's journey with us because I believe Musha has a great story, with wonderful lessons that we co …
