Exactly This Day

One of the fun parts of writing a daily blog is you know that for ever how many years you wrote it, you can go back and see what you wrote about on exactly this day, however many years ago you choose. One might ask what would be the purpose of doing that?

Green Dots

A few weeks ago a friend introduced a new SEO widget for blogging involving green dots at our blog group meeting. (SEO stands for search engine optimization which is just a fancy name for ways to get the search engines, like Google, to pick up your blog easier.)

I’ve never been one to be particularly . . . → Read More: Green Dots

Almost Crippled

I have cited my writer buddy, Keith Jennings, and his Sunday essay, Root Notes, a few times in this blog. Keith is another writer, whom, over the course of time reading his work, I have come to trust. I trust his words. I trust his ideas. I trust his inquires. Why is that so? What . . . → Read More: Almost Crippled

Change Through Cookies

When that little phrase “will you accept cookies” used to pop up on my computer, I’d laugh and picture a warm chocolate chip cookie popping out of the disk drive as soon as I clicked ok. Cookies were always a source of comfort for me and when I saw the above photo, it just . . . → Read More: Change Through Cookies

A Soft Landing

This morning I woke up lying in the aftermath of my week in Boston. A week that I could never, even in my writer’s imagination, have imagined. I needed to keep my lens, through which I focus the week’s happenings, adjusted properly. I knew today was going to be a day of coming down, coming . . . → Read More: A Soft Landing

Let Them In

Recently I have gone through a hard time with my sister-in-law’s cancer. I’m so glad I have so much support from my friends here on the Cape. Many times I would hesitate to say what was wrong when asked. You know that feeling – everyone has their own bag of stuff and they don’t need . . . → Read More: Let Them In

In the next few days this blog will be moving to a new home. After two and a half years of faithful writing on my part, and faithful reading and commenting on your part, I'm proud to announce Another Day Goes By will have it's own copyrighted website, owned by me and will now be . . . → Read More: New Home

What’s My Hurry?

Read this first:

Down In The Valley

My breath was knocked out of me at Jean Do's plight because I absolutely cannot imagine my brain being alive and not being able to do what I'm doing now – communicating my thoughts and words to you. But he wrote a whole book AFTER this happened to . . . → Read More: What’s My Hurry?

Gentle Re-Entry

A friend of mine texted me that she just landed in Boston from LA. After she got home, she said she is enjoying a gentle re-entry. Just the wording of that phrase made me feel calm. I’m going to practice a re-entry myself tomorrow. A re-entry into my daily life and I certainly do want . . . → Read More: Gentle Re-Entry
