Home is Massachusetts… It always has been, even during the almost 19 years that I lived in Los Angeles, and the 7 lovely months I just spent in Maine, home is and always has been… Massachusetts. And… It’s good to be home.

Home is a drive along Main Street in Amesbury, looking across the Merrimack River to Newburyport… A walk along the waterfront park in downtown Newburyport, admiring all the beautiful boats in the river.

Home is a short drive to Plum Island…

There really is no place like home.

A Busy Life

May 18, 2009

I lead a busy life. I enjoy staying busy. Work to me is fulfilling because I always feel as though in my work, from my business to my blogs I am making a difference in the world.  

In a couple of weeks, I’ll add a new aspect to my busy life — a job. I’ve been self-employed for 13 years. The recession has taken a toll on my business, so I felt it was time to make that leap back into the work force while the business rides out the recession. Thankfully the job hunt was painless. I found something quickly.

This Friday, I will be moving again  – back home to the Newburyport, MA area, where I grew up and lived for 33 years.

I love living in Maine. I love Eastport. However, job opportunities are sparse here. I didn’t think when I moved here that the recession would hit even harder than it had when I made the decision to move to Maine late last summer.

It’s all good. It’s my “Mid-life Crisis Adventure 2.0.”

Longing for Planting Season

March 27, 2009

I stopped at Home Depot in New Hampshire over the weekend to pick up some business supplies and I found myself wandering through the gardening section picking out seed packets of my favorite vegetables.

I am longing for planting season… waiting for the last frost, to be exact, so that I can plant my seeds, tend my garden and then reap it’s harvest in the Summer.

I will no doubt plant some flowers as well, but my focus at this point is planting my own little victory garden. And speaking of gardening and flowers, the NY Times has really good read today: Hands-On History Lessons.

Musing and Rambling

Sometimes I muse and I ramble because I can... I muse about life and things that matter to me...
