It’s the 5 year anniversary of Covid. Is the beauty supply store in my neighborhood ever going to take down their huge banner that states, “Open Now with Social Distancing?”

Happy Random Acts of Kindness Day! #Kindness #Leadership #HumanPotential #BeKind #Celebrate
A graphic from the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation that says, “When we see to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves” by William Arthur Ward. It’s a black and white graphic with an image of a terrarium housing a succulent plant.

The news is relentless and I needed a way to manage the barrage of notifications and breaking news. I set my ChatGPT tasks to give me a daily summary of the topics I care most about. It’s giving Google Reader, but it’s working. #Innovation #Wellness #CurrentEvents

My 2025 project is to learn watercolor painting. Beginner class today with @caseformaking.bsky.social and I am hooked.
