    Rebounding, Kind Of

    Getting to it, which is what I wish for us all, sometimes means getting back to it, which is where I am at. But getting back to it means there was a period of time we didn’t get to it, which is where I was at. There are many different reasons we stopped getting to…

    That’s a Wrap-Up

    Picking back up after six months of absence can be terribly difficult for anyone. Whether it’s not having sung in public or not having picked up a paint brush, having had to rest a torn acl or just taking a break from being too busy the passage of time has a weird affect.

    Getting Back to It

    Being SAD During the Winter Months

    The past few years I have found it hard to stay motivated during the winter months. With the cold days and long nights I find it hard to stay focused on the tasks I need to complete. A lot of times what should take only a few hours end up taking
