Just like me, this site is a work in progress. If you’re a new visitor, here’s a little guidance:
You might want to begin with the first 2 posts, which you can access first here and then here – they provide a bit of the back-story and my objectives for this blog.
If you’re on a mobile device or tablet, you probably see a “menu” link above, which you can click for a listing of the site pages. If you’re on a larger screen, you should see page links across the top of the page.
I’ll be continuing to add content to the various pages over time, and if you’re drawn to one set of content over the others, you can always click on the category at the bottom of the post to see all the posts in that category.
I am an evolving experiment in self-actualization. After a 31+ year corporate career, I ditched my suits and pumps and finally tumbled into my “why” in the fall of 2018.
My first (possibly only?!) book, "Zen (and Rage) and the Art of a Never-Ending Home Renovation," was published in December of 2021. It is a humorous and sometimes harrowing account of surviving, and even thriving through, a decade-plus home renovation project being jointly delivered by my husband and me, with an occasional few contractors and (sometimes more than) a little help from our friends. I continue to share the ongoing saga on my Hump-Day House Stuff posts.
My passion for the links between food and public and environmental health can be found in my "Food Friday" posts. For fun (and profit), I am a practitioner of value investing and disciplined trading strategies.
I've been on the adventure of marriage to my husband Tim since 1993. We have 2 (arguably) grown sons, James and Owen, and the best family (including my mom & dad, whose care I'm helping with, which I also blog about in Mom & Dad Monday) and friends I could ever have imagined for myself.
