When my son Nick was 10 years old, he asked me if we could set a goal of going to “all the Grand Slam Tennis Tournaments before we die.” I blurted out, “Yes!” Six years later, Veronica, my British-born girlfriend, who knew about Nick’s goal, called me up and suggested we turn the goal into reality and […]
Every Monday I take three young adults frolfing. Or do we go frolicking? Sometimes I have so much fun, I feel like a dancing fairy in the forest! We start by choosing our weapons. J. likes “The Reaper” disc so he can warn the others, “FEAR the Reaper!” before he sends his sailing. S. likes the red disc because […]
I remember back in 2010 when I joined the world of blogging and was so proud of myself!

Easter Sunday 1962 Whenever my mom wanted one of her daughters (8 to be exact) to do something quickly for her, she would say “Go now, hop like a bunny!” and we would spring into action. I found myself saying the same thing to my boys, but added another one, “let’s go… lickety-splitity!” Do you […]
Today, I am thinking about my amazing Aunt Mary, who was born on this date in 1910. She lived to be 102, and stayed on her farm until age 101, when she moved into an assisted living facility. I still remember her 100th birthday party at “the farm.” When my twin sister, who is a teacher, told her young students that […]
I am repeating this post from 5 years ago due to the continued relevance of its message. It was first posted in March of 2010. Today I have a guest blogger, and his name is Jon. I am fortunate to teach Jon and his friend Sam racquetball at the YMCA. Both boys are 18 years old and […]
