Kick It Up For Christmas

December 22nd, 2014
Posted By:

Hey there Resilient Readers: It’s the Monday of Christmas week and today I am going in an entirely different direction; one that is fun and healing and in tune with the holiday spirit.  It’s a post that I hope makes you smile and perhaps reminisce about your own unfulfilled but fond dreams. I have a saying that life is about finding your music and dancing to it.  Dancing has always been something that comes natural to me and something that I love to do.  In one of my former lives, I took dancing lessons for years as a child and… Read More

Danny Meyer Photo Courtesy BravoTV I have never met Danny Meyer but I have eaten at two of his infamous restaurants in Manhattan: Shack Shack, which now has a location in Washington, D.C., and serves great juicy burgers and tasty crinkle french fries and Blue Smoke which offers fantastic Southern food, especially barbecue. Danny Meyer is the author of an insightful book, “Setting The Table” and owner and founder of 10 outstanding restaurants in New York City.  Business is so good at his restaurants that most of them remain open today since the first day he opened them for business.  … Read More

I don’t know about you, but now that the weather is getting a little warmer and I’m shedding my layers of winter, I’m feeling way out of shape. Too much time spent sitting in front of the computer.  Too many afternoons noshing on comfort food. A new season means moving is the name of the game for me and I think this You Tube video below showing how to Dance Walk is the perfect way to kickstart some outdoor motion and burning off those almighty calories! Even if you don’t need to tone up, check out this Dance Walk video… Read More

A good laugh is worth a million bucks. Justin Timberlake & Jimmy Fallon on Saturday Night Live There are a few of my friends and family members who can make me laugh so hard that I can’t get my breath and I love that they have this special talent.  They are usually imitating someone or just have the ability to see life in a quirky way and I always can use a dose of their sense of humor. Fortunately, there are also a few shows on television that also make me laugh.  One of them is “Saturday Night Live.”  When… Read More

Strangers Become Friends

October 23rd, 2013

When walking down the street, with a destination in mind, lost in my thoughts about work or something happening in my personal life, I admit that I am not always aware of the people around me. I know that physically there are groups of people or singular people walking towards or past me, but the details of what they are wearing or what they look like are an instantaneous blur. It’s not because I am walking and texting.  If I hear the ping of a text received on my phone and I need to answer it, I move out of… Read More

You can file today’s post under the category of silly — but true! It’s a slice of life that may be about to arrive in a community near you. Seeing. Eye. People. That’s right.  Seeing Eye People. A Seeing Eye Person In Action As in: hold on to me (a person, not a dog) and I will guide you and be your eyes while you continue to walk and text. The idea of offering Seeing Eye People as a service is performed by Improv Everywhere & BuzzFeed as a bit of street comedy but it not that far fetched. Every… Read More
