School starts, people get serious after summer holidays, harvest is happening or almost complete, time … Continue reading Preparing for the year ahead!
A New Year, A New Vision
Happy New Year! 2021 has ended with a bang! We thought we were in the clear for a moment, that maybe we would be almost back to 'normal' before hitting 2022, but here we are.

Schedule by Subtracting?
Do you like planning and scheduling? For many who are like me, planning and scheduling can be both exciting and nightmarish. If you are at all in tune with the Myers-Briggs material, much of this is due to that last letter in your profile. I am a slight 'P', which means I lean towards the perceptive … Continue reading Schedule by Subtracting?
