Lucas saw that Sofia was comfortably seated in the first workshop, Negotiating Hard Limits, and headed on to his meeting. The presenters were a young couple who seemed to have more enthusiasm than experience. Since Lucas had asked Sofia for feedback on their presentation, she kept copious notes on the material they used and the … Continue reading Connections – Part II {11}

Nope
And today, I was still pretty much super busy. Sorry. I added three paragraphs to the next installment of Connections. And I don't really have anything worthwhile to say. I have rebounded from my depths of despair, closed down the pity party and am excited that the weekend starts tomorrow. It's getting close to Christmas, … Continue reading Nope
Not Today Either
I'd been planning to have an installment of Connections ready to publish today. Even wrote one yesterday, but the last half of it didn't save. Sigh. I was trying to rewrite it this morning, but there really isn't time. I have a super full day today, with appointments just about every single hour between 9 … Continue reading Not Today Either

Back to the Ocean
It was cold and windy and I only had about 5 minutes on the pier. (Ok, cold is like 55 degrees. Not actually freezing or anything.) It always puts things back in perspective for me. I had been feeling a bit grumpy yesterday. A musician I love is going to be here in February and … Continue reading Back to the Ocean
Another Sunday…and Get Ready for Cookies!!
Another Sunday and I had plans for it. I was going to the coffee shop and going to use my fancy planner to plan my week next week. (My planner is so fancy, I had to buy wite-out so I could clean it up when I make mistakes on my schedule.) But instead, I've decided … Continue reading Another Sunday…and Get Ready for Cookies!!
Connections – Part II {10}
They were in plenty of time for the first class. Lucas took her up to the apartment first, so they could leave their bags. She dropped off her purse and cell phone too. He offered her a snack, but she wasn't hungry - the butterflies in her stomach were dancing wildly. He looked at her, … Continue reading Connections – Part II {10}
Connections – Part II {9}
Sofia had barely finished her nightly rituals - face washing, brushing teeth, 15 minutes of yoga - when Lucas' message came through. She felt very odd turning on her iPad still naked, and she put a towel over her chair before she sat down, but she did as he'd instructed. "Hi, Sofia - Just a … Continue reading Connections – Part II {9}
