Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
I took a break last Monday from my weekly blog post, mostly because I was still in Lalaland after a wonderful long weekend in San Francisco. The weather was glorious, the sights fantastic, the restaurant stops a foodie’s dream. I like to people watch wherever I go, and what struck me deeply about this city... Continue Reading →
What is in a name, anyway? I held a real estate open house in the East End on Saturday, and to my surprise, I had two ladies with the name Ginger. Two in one day! Disclaimer: neither lady looked like Ginger from Gilligan’s Island FYI. But, what a great a name, right? Later in the... Continue Reading →
I follow @MichaelChatman on Twitter because he is the sort of positive I want in my life from people that make a difference.

I don’t know about you, but the rancor in America is exhausting. Can we all please call a truce? This is my Wish List: Slow down when you drive. Better yet, how about driving the speed limit? Please try to remember that on ramp and that far right lane are for the zipper process. One... Continue Reading →
What I know is that I want to know more, learn more, understand more. As a result, I watch those news shows. I’m a NBC Nightly News junkie – do not call me between 5:30 and 6:00 pm! I don’t watch the mystery stuff, I watch shows that present issues we face nationally and globally.... Continue Reading →
Ever since New Year’s Day, I have been giving this 2017 year a great deal of thought. I am not going to grumble about 2016 because it was what it was. I have been taught through my Buddhist practice to focus on the present. I have been taught through my Christian upbringing to focus on... Continue Reading →
