Power Poses
I like to watch the Ted talks, so a couple of days ago I watched one called “Your body language shapes who you are” by Amy Cuddy. The main idea of the talk is that your body language doesn’t just effect others but it impacts you. So they did an experiment and asked a group…

It’s all in the Name
If there is anything I miss about England other than family and friends its to wander around a country village with its duck pond, thatched roofed cottages or black and white timbered pubs.

Still dating
Caught on a date with my husband Kev, in our 38th year of marriage by my son and daughter-in-law. Using days off to hang out and do things together is vital to sustain relationships. There are often times when we just get so busy that weeks and months go by and our days off are…

Isolation
Conjures up negative connotations of depression or disease. People are put into an isolation ward when they have something that is contagious. There are times though when isolation can be a good thing, to get alone and think. Life is so busy and so extremely noisy, everywhere there is the sound of voices or traffic. Finding a…

Investigation
I am an investigator, not by profession but by nature. If I hear someone mention something that I haven’t heard of before I have to go home and research it. At one time I would spend days in the library poring over books on the new topic of interest but now the internet is my…
