How one REACTS to any given situation, in my experience, will generally determine the outcome. This world-wide lock-down has clearly shown that there is a great deal of learning that humans need to do. The “public” has reacted to the COVID crisis in a variety of ways. Whether you choose […]
Life in General
I turned 50 this past summer. Yes, 50. I’m not really the type that gets worked up too much over age – after all, once you hit LEGAL age, it’s only math. There are certain things that I’ve noticed in getting older, aside from the usual aches and pains. The […]
Well, it’s official – Hippie Ways Natural Body Care exists… Now I just need to figure out how I’m going to finance this little operation. Since I found myself rather suddenly unemployed in September (a story unto itself) I’ve been tossing around the idea of unleashing my creative dragons and […]

I was rather hoping to be doing the snoopy-dance-of-joy over having been accepted to the training program I’ve applied to. Well, I’m still waiting… Things seem to have been in a holding pattern for quite a while out here, and I’m really not sure why. However, I do suspect that […]
