Bread and Honey: More Unlimited
http://breadandhoney-barbara.blogspot.com/2013/02/more-unlimited.html
Friday, February 15, 2013. I just found this post in my draft folder. Not sure why I didn't post it when I wrote it in 2009, about a month after our trip to Ethiopia to pick up the kids. Makes me want to go back to Addis. My friend, Liz, writes a great blog about her quest for fitness. She loves the theater. She has taken her frustration about her body and made her quest for healthy self-love and self-care into a performance. I love her writing. This entry. Is about living within our means. So much of wh...

Bread and Honey: The Secret of the Five-day Vacation
http://breadandhoney-barbara.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-secret-of-five-day-vacation-i-have.html
Sunday, February 3, 2013. The Secret of the Five-day Vacation. I have discovered a low-investment/high-yield activity that could change your life. But, you could use it a little bit at a time and get a lot more bang for you buck. You can do that THREE or FOUR times a year with your precious vacation time. Get a real break from work, get some real play time with your family, and actually reduce your stress rather than increase it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to my kitchen table.

Panama Ponderings: July 2016
http://panamaponderings.blogspot.com/2016_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 11, 2016. Things I'll Miss (And Not). My flight back to the US is scheduled for September 2. That’s less than 8 weeks away! On the other hand, I’ll miss all the produce – coconut water and oranges from my front yard, cacao freshly processed from the finca. Avocadoes and pineapples and mangoes and passion fruits and yellow bananas – all from here. Being “special”. Just a handful of recent pictures that also represent things I’ll miss…. So many baby animals in the campo. And, of course, Arcadia.

Panama Ponderings: May 2015
http://panamaponderings.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Project Management and Leadership Conference with Angel was fantastic! He was so excited about it that he wanted to share the experience with everyone back home. So he asked the conference facilitators if they could hold the same conference in Quebrada Pastor - and they agreed! Then he went home, got 10 signatures of people who wanted to attend, and decided which were the most important sessions. I didn't really have to do anything - which is exactly how it should be! After PML, I ...

Panama Ponderings: April 2016
http://panamaponderings.blogspot.com/2016_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2016. This aqueduct project is a marathon. I mean, I assume the metaphor is accurate. I’ve never run a marathon. Guess you’d have to ask my brother, the ultra-marathoner, what that’s actually like ( https:/ steeplesandsunglasses.wordpress.com/. Happens by doing and seeing – not by reading and writing (much to my chagrin when I want to draw them a diagram) – so working together on this infrastructure project is a vivid way to learn that sense of empowerment, ownership, contro...We’...

Panama Ponderings: May 2016
http://panamaponderings.blogspot.com/2016_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 7, 2016. Mom told my brother and me once, after we asked why there is Mother’s Day and Father’s Day but no Children’s Day (as in, Why do you get presents an extra day each year and we don’t? That it’s not about getting presents, it’s about being able to honor someone else. Everyone has a mother and a father to honor, but not everyone has children. This way, no one gets left out. With love – Happy Mother’s Day! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Http:/ Nick.Sopchak@blo...

Panama Ponderings: Wrapping Up

Wednesday, August 10, 2016. It’s time to say goodbye. I’ve had to write my own Description of Serve, the official document signed by the Country Director that explains how I spent my time in Peace Corps, used primarily for job application but also stored in the Library of Congress (cool! This is the Summary of Accomplishments on mine:.
