Whirlwind dealing with the Government

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Hello all my faithful readers. Where has the time gone. I know. It’s been a whirlwind dealing with the government. I’m sure many of you know what I’m talking about without having to explain things. For me, it started 7-8 years ago when I got injured on the job. I still deal with the after […]

Excuses

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Excuses, I hate making excuses That’s right, readers, I hate making excuses. Yet, that’s all I seem to do these days. I could and would manage it if it were as simple as writer’s block. It’s not. Being a full-time caregiver is hard on me emotionally as well as physically. Can you imagine working 120 […]

Merry Christmas 2023

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Good morning and Merry Christmas 2023. Sure, Christmas was yesterday, but the season continues. Let’s hope that we all make it last. This time of year, a few days after the Winter Solstice gives us an opportunity to sit back and think of ways to prevent repeating our mistakes of the past. I know I […]

Winter Solstice 2023

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Today is the shortest day of the natural year, Winter Solstice 2023. Starting tomorrow, the sun will rise a little earlier and set a little later in the day. It’ll be slow at first but gradually go longer and longer until Spring arrives. To me, this pattern of Earth’s trip around the Sun represents the […]

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Happy Thanksgiving 2023 Just a quick note to wish everyone here in the U.S.A. a Happy Thanksgiving 2023. As most of you know, it has not been a good year for my partner and me. Between her disease and me, an engineer, taking on the role of a full-time home caregiver has stressed the household […]

Halloween 2023 is over

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

Halloween 2023 is over. Halloween 2023 is over, and my decorations are all put away. 😞 This is the first time I got a little excited to celebrate the holiday in several years. Oh, it’s not like when I owned a home on a family-oriented street. In those days, I’d go all out, covering the […]

I’m sorry to say

Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.

My lady and partner continue’s to need full-time care to do the simplest of things. She is angry and frustrated that she is losing control of […]
