Romania final days
Yesterday my friend’s nephew tried to teach me a bunch of Romanian words. He is 12 years old and absolutely adorable. I was having a hard time remembering so he suggested I write in my telephone. He kept looking at what I wrote to see how I spelled the words but I had to write…

Romania
It was a bit of a spur of the moment decision to go to Romania. I like adventure but it has never even been on my list of places to visit. My friend Donna has raised a daughter who she adopted from Romania. I knew it was an eastern European country and it was fairly…

Friends
I have been extremely fortunate to have amazing friends. I find people fascinating and someone said once I collect people and perhaps I do but not to sit on the shelves. I love interaction with my friends. You may know I am an extrovert. I need people but those who are my friends are especially…

Bicycles
In the city alot of people don’t have cars because parking, etc is tough and expensive. They do not let not having a car slow them down. They ride bicycles and walk a lot along with the bus and train service, which is quite an efficient way to get around. But what happens if you…

Love
The weekend in Stockholm was amazing! I met so many wonderful people who were full of love for one another. Lots of hugs and smiles. I felt the beauty of humanity as we came together for our freedom. Those of you who think I am crazy, maybe I am, but I am still full of…

Strength
Tomorrow is 5 months since my husband left and next week we would have celebrated 23 years of marriage. I am not sure how it will go but I expect the days leading up to it may be challenging. I have made progress in some areas and not in others. My self care Wednesday gave…
