I am headed back to Cincinnati for a week. Two weekend workshops, some appointments and a few remaining to-do’s there require my attention. When I lived in Cincinnati, I was always looking forward to traveling, but now that I am living in San Francisco, traveling away seems harder. Maybe it is all the boxes that [...]

My personal property auction is done. Tomorrow people will stop by to pick up their purchases. All these things that have been in my possession for decades will soon leave my house with someone else. I hope they love these things and use them well. But whether they do or not is ultimately out of [...]

When I signed up for the teleseminar about finding my purpose, it was because I wanted to focus my efforts as I moved closer to completing my relocation to San Francisco. Essentially, I am starting over and I wanted some clarity about how to proceed. Do I focus on helping people learn about their food [...]

My first truckload of stuff is now in San Francisco. I have a few sore muscles, but I am very happy to have completed this first big step. Today I am doing some unpacking and tomorrow I will fly back to start sorting and packing for my second and final truckload. My goal is to [...]

Well, I have been extremely productive this past week. I set myself a goal to pack for six to eight hours a day and I did. Now my basement is full of boxes and I am off to pick up the rental truck. Today and tomorrow, I am loading the truck and Wednesday I head [...]

I am flying off to San Francisco on Saturday to rent a storage unit and a mailbox there. I will also be making arrangements to rent space in a friend’s apartment beginning October 1. After months of sorting and yard sales, I am finally beginning to create space for myself in San Francisco. In early [...]

Ever tried to do something and found yourself struggling hard to move forward? For a long time (35 years), I tried to lose weight and struggled hard to accomplish that goal. When I finally found the key (for me it was food sensitivities), losing weight and keeping it off became comparatively easy. Now I am [...]

I just found out that I have a stress fracture in one of my teeth. According to the dentist, this is something that comes from clenching my jaws when I’m asleep. So now I need to spend over $1000 for a new dental crown! I guess the stress of preparing to relocate is impacting me [...]

It has been an amazing week since I returned home from the seminar. I have found myself making greater progress toward my goals, feeling more relaxed and comfortable about my life, and in general feeling happier and more fulfilled. I knew that a change in perspective changes everything. I have written about that on this [...]
