As I’ve been wandering around this week my thoughts have drifted back to my journey over the last two decades to simplify life and the simple truth of the matter is that life often likes to make itself very difficult to simplify. One would think after the years of work and a blog dedicated to…

One could not have asked for a better morning at the park with blue skies, sixty degrees and my niece, the animal whisperer, along for the walk. The animals were just pouring out of the woods to see her and there was barely enough room on the paths between the deer and sandhill cranes. Thanks…
