Eat right. Sleep well. Walk every day. Meditate. Work hard. Drink lots of water. Make time to play. Chase your passion.
Don’t forget to breathe.
Some of the best advice comes in snippets, a one liner in passing across a soup bowl at lunch, a quick goodbye or a speedy hello tossed across the traffic on a busy street.
Find yourself.
For the last several months, I have not blogged, though certainly inspiration was all around me.
2020, while full of uncertainty in many ways, brought me to a career in law enforcement as a crime prevention specialist, a position which has proven to join my creative side with my desire to serve the community.
I have spent the last few months in various kinds of training, and I love it!
Now that I am getting used to my new routine, I am reconnecting with my glitzy adventure blog and other side pastimes.
After work today, I ate two small bags of Cheetoes and swigged a cup of coffee while reading a friend’s blog and making a list of books I would like to read.
Be careful with the eating and reading thing.
Simultaneously that is.
As a child, I hauled armloads of books home, then nestled in a small curl of existence as I devoured the pages before me, traveling to places and times I have never seen, and musing about what I would do if I did.
So here I am .. I hope to blog often, and with substance.
Meanwhile, I have a cat on my lap.
Molly says hello.

Hello to Molly too. Curled up on your lap (or nearby), I am sure, on this chilly winter evening.
This new year is a perfect time to share your glitzy adventure with us. We can only hope it is a better year. But no matter what, we will enjoy your perspectives and philosophies on life.
