Bless My Mess
As I sit in my home office at six a.m. on a Sunday morning, doing my part on a biannual technology exercise, I looked around the room and said, “This place is a mess!” It’s not that I haven’t been conscious of the mess, but as it happens, life and all its sucky parts...

As I sit in my home office at six a.m. on a Sunday morning, doing my part on a biannual technology exercise, I looked around the room and said, “This place is a mess!” It’s not that I haven’t been conscious of the mess, but as it happens, life and all its sucky parts got in the way of organized chaos over the past...
Home @ Work Pivot
With all the negative press that the Return to Office (RTO) craze is getting, white-collar professionals are reluctantly gassing up their cars, picking up their dry cleaning, and returning to the daily grind of going to work. Even the rebranded hybrid model is losing...
Floored
It’s amazing what new flooring can do for a room (or two). About three weeks ago, the new flooring for my home office and guest suite was installed. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results and the service that came along with it. Originally, I wanted to install...

Mentorship
Everyone needs a mentor. Whether it’s a highly paid coaching professional, a colleague, or friend in your innermost circle, there is power in having someone in your corner who will tell you the truth and has your back, even when you think they don’t. For nearly two...
In With the Old and the New
As I continue my adventures in painting the new home office en suite, I have completed the first phase of the color makeover. Eight walls and 3.5 gallons (including the paint in my hair, on my clothes, and of course, the layer that found its way to the bottom of my...
Working Space
I've been avoiding the renovations of the second story of my home for nearly three years. Well, that's not exactly true; my son, who moved in with me pre-COVID, occupied most of the top floor for the better part of four years. However, I passively resisted doing the...
