Are You Are a Procrastinator?

Procrastination is often perfectionism in disguise. Perfectionism (keeping those blog posts, videos, photos, etc. in draft form) helps no one. You need to take your potential seriously. 

Lambing Season Has Arrived on the Farm!

This adorable little guy was born this week. 

Best guess is that all of the other ewes are pregnant too. Mama and baby have bonded well. I'm so thankful for new life -- and for the warmer weather! 

De-Waxing My Surfboard

My job du jour? Prepping to strip the old wax off of my surfboard so that it's ready for a new season of wave riding. The old wax is pretty dirty and stained from use. On our next really warm day I'll leave it out in the sun and let the wax melt and then scrape it off with an old gift card. 

This board has "migrated" through the years:

5 years in Hawaii.

27 years in Southern California.

27 years on the East Coast. 

By the way, I'm planning on taking this board with me this summer when I return to Oahu. Renting a board just doesn't cut it. It will be fun to use this board again on the South Shore! 

We Value What We Notice

Hello again everyone! I can hardly believe we're already a month into my 2025 training block. It's also hard to fathom just how beautiful the weather is.

Yes, the sun is out -- and it's warm!

I spent the morning at the gym chasing down my biggest, hugest, most ginormous goal for the new year -- climbing the you-know-what. This will involve intensive training, eating a healthy diet, and attitude adjustments and balance. For every setback it seems there are ten blessings and joys. If you want positivity in your life, you don't have to look very far. It's around us all the time -- the goodness, the wonder, the abundance of living. It's all about perspective. Making the most of it all. That's the attitude I tried to have during today's workout. It was pure enjoyment! 

Not that anyone is interested, but I've posted a couple of vids of my workout below. Friend, you value what you notice. I try to notice the little things every day. Even if I don't make it to the top of the Riffelhorn, it'll be a good lesson in humility for me! 

Have a great rest of your day!
