Kitty Update
The kitties continue to take me on the emotional roller coaster of loving and hating them. They are cutest and sweetest when asleep… πΈ They do provide me with excellent company when I am home all day. In fact, I have a migraine today but they are staying close by even though they usually sleep…

Art of Minimizing
There is a habit that I became acutely aware of back in my life coaching training days. It is our need to respond to others by either devaluing, minimizing or dismissing their experience.

June Visa Run
I am about to do my next visa run to the Oman border…. I am hoping that there will be fewer passengers and I am meeting them at the second to last pick-up point in hopes of minimizing my time in the car as much as possible. Hopefully this will be the last visa run…

Okay, so it has been months that I have been stuck on a book from Book Club. It just has not kept my attention even though it is actually interesting. Perhaps it is because it is depressing and it not really told in a way that makes me properly connect with any of the characters.…
