A Dear One

Bringin’ it back.

There are several phrases that I have grown to love and have noticed that they have slipped out of regular use.

A weekend away…

Sounds really nice doesn’t it? How about if I tell you we went to Napa to go wine tasting with good friends? And that we would be staying in very nice hotel/spa. That’s even better! What I never would have guessed was that we would spend the weekend trying to stave off the illness that…

"Getting Things Done"

There is a school of thought on productivity headed by super-duper prepare-o-matic David Allen and he has written a few books on the subject.
