  • Reach Out

    April 19, 2024

    To Inspire:   Cue tinny 70s TV music… “Reach out, reach out and touch someone. Reach out, call up and just say hi. Wherever you are, you’re never too far.

  • Spring Forward!

    March 1, 2024

    To Inspire: It has arrived. The annual Saturday night/Sunday morning when we “Spring Forward” and lose an hour of sleep. While one lost hour seems like it shouldn’t be problematic, most of us recognize that we’ll spend a few days adjusting to this new “time.” This year, daylight saving time (DST) begins on Sunday, March […]

  • It’s Leap Year!

    February 23, 2024

    To Inspire: It’s a leap year, a year with one extra day. Why do we do this? And what should we do with this extra day? Leap days are needed to keep our calendar in alignment with the Earth’s revolutions around the Sun. It actually takes the Earth a tiny bit longer than 365 days […]
