Embracing Silver & Wisdom
In September of 2021, after 23 years, I left the field of healthcare and pharmacy. I thought it might be time to settle back and start making a few changes, as well as accept some things I had tried & failed to change..as Tim McGraw so eloquently put it….”I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate…

What Will It Matter Tomorrow?
What Will It Matter Tomorrow? We save things for memories; pictures to capture today and hold on to things we will someday miss. But who will want these things when we are gone? Who will carry on what we’ve started? What will it matter tomorrow? When the color fades from my hazel green eyes, and…

The Priceless Christmas Gift
Each Christmas, ( and sometimes in-between) a memory comes back to me of a day long ago when times were hard and buying gifts at Christmas was a challenge. Struggle makes us more resourceful, even if we don’t like it at the time we are going through it. If you have never struggled, you may…

1974 A Cold Day in Pennsylvania
It was somewhere around 1974, I was working for a residential/commercial cleaning company, ACT of America located in King of Prussia, Pa. This was roughly 20 min or so from my then Collegeville address. Winters in Pa were always cold, and looooong……. A typical day started around 8. Get to the office and get our…
