Do you remember how bad I felt for MoMo that she ended up in a training class being the only grown dog in the class? I've been thinking about why I felt that way. After all, she is a dog and I'm sure that she didn't feel as bad as I thought she did. After thinking about it, I realized that I was...
How time flies! I can't believe it's been 2 months since MoMo traveled 19 hours in a plane from Korea, crated with another in the same kennel. Since that day, She's learned a lot about life in the states. Here's her progress report.
- She learned that grass is the appropriate place for dogs to...
I want to share a story with you. Many years ago, I met a woman at a business conference. She was beautiful, well-poised, and radiated a look of health. She approached me and began conversing with me about women in businesses. It was difficult for me to concentrate on our conversation. I finally...
Thank you for following MoMo's Journey with us. What we appreciate are the all the wonderful comments that you've been posting with your encouraging words and thoughts.
I've been concentrating on teaching MoMo to walk on a leash with me. She is a dog who has never walked with a human tethered...

When I have downtime, I create things. That's exactly what I did between January and February. As I studied the Kaizen/Ikigai philosophy of gift sharing, I wanted to get something out in the world that I felt would cause transformational mindset change that people would benefit from. The title of...
Are you ready to celebrate more daylight and warmer weather in spring? I am for sure. I'm dreaming of giving brightly decorated Easter Gift baskets filled with little tiny surprises to a few of my special people. I love to surprise people and bring smiles to their faces. We need more people...
My Jack Russel Terrier, Max passed away three months ago. It's hard to live with an emptiness in my heart ... the pain feels worse during this COVID time. I try to remember the happy things Max and I did together. One of the happiest times we spent together was driving out to the country every...
I remember so well, when I was trying to start my business many years ago, I was not able to get a $40,000. business loan. I got turned down by every bank that I submitted my business plan to. When I was just about to give up on my idea of starting a business, an acquaintance told me to go and...
Today, we in the Pacific NW are celebrating a snowy Valentines Day. Being stuck at home is not a bad idea. I'm at home practicing how to water color loose and flowy HEARTS. Anyone can do this. It's so intuitive, using no brain power. Just get yourself a cup of hot tea, sit in your favorite...
