Taking time to pause and ‘stop the world’
The 1982 classic by Modern English broke the silence from my alarm clock the other day. “I’ll stop the world and melt with you … You’ve seen the difference … And it’s getting better all the time … There’s nothing you and I won’t do …”
Yard work never felt so good
It seems our yard work never ends. Recent wet weather across southern Ontario accelerated growth of all plants and shrubs.

Practice does much more than ‘make perfect’
We all know that the more we practice, the better we get at everything. Whether it’s athletic competition, mental agility or composing music, more is always better.
