About

Welcome to my blog!  First of all, thank you for taking the time to stop by.  I started this blog several years ago, and then just let it sit there.  I got busy working at a new job and thought my writing-blogging days were over.  Now I am re-thinking that decision.  About me…I am an empty nester that got a border collie this year (2023).  She is a big part of my daily life, along with starting my own business, NW Compliance Consulting.  I spend my days walking Rory, working on my business, doing my hobbies, and taking care of my husband.  We have been married since 1990, so you can do the math: a long time.  We have two adult children, one that lives close to us and one that lives on the East Coast.  My husband has a daughter that lives in California with her two children.  Both my husband and I come from big families, but very little family is local.  This means we travel to see family and family visits us.  I enjoy cooking, both for large groups and for just me.  I also enjoy gardening, home-improvement projects, reading, having coffee with friends, and learning new things.

I hope you find my blog helpful and encouraging.  My goal is to share what I am doing in a positive way to help me live my best life, and hopefully that helps you too.
