Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses we'll ride them some day -The Rolling Stones I said I would and I did. I visited the wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs at Corolla Beach, Outer Banks, North Carolina. It was a dream come true. I booked the tour a week in advance and set out … Continue reading Wild horses

Rationalization 101
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/06/style/modern-love-sleeping-with-married-men-infidelity.html After one of my favorite exercise classes this morning I was in a super good mood. I picked up my mobile phone to check the weather for this afternoon and accidentally hit the News app icon with my clumsy fingers. The above Times article blasted across my screen. I read it. Of course I did. … Continue reading Rationalization 101
I’m in the South, y’all
I decided this week that I have been away from my blog long enough. To be honest, I'm having issues with my laptop's air drop function. I haven't been able to transfer photos from my iPhone X and you know how much I love photos. So, I am, for the first time ever, posting on … Continue reading I’m in the South, y’all
This is my time
I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, heading east, and I plan to be away from home for at least five weeks. I need this time. I feel lucky because my kids are grown and anything I need to do for work (which is very little at this point) can be done remotely. I'm lucky because my … Continue reading This is my time

Control
For Blue Eyes, part of his addiction is clearly about control. As a child, he was under the strict and harsh command of his narcissistic and abusive mother. She belittled him and chided him and rode his ass day and night. He could never do anything right. Failure was right around the corner for him … Continue reading Control
Grounded
Things are changing. We march on... The doc did not want me flying. Truthfully though, I think she realized I would push myself too much and wouldn't be keen on sitting around a hotel room in the middle of San Francisco. I called her office on Tuesday afternoon and spoke with her medical assistant. I … Continue reading Grounded
Not the lesser Babka
As it turns out, I am suffering from a concussion. I am assuming it is mild since my current symptoms are mild. I have a doc appointment tomorrow afternoon, just to make sure that I am taking the proper precautions. We head out of town tomorrow night on a business trip. I am currently absolutely … Continue reading Not the lesser Babka
