Sharpening the saw. . .

January 24, 2020 by dpankiewicz

OK the project list keeps growing and it appears I’m either feeling my age, Pittsburgh winter, or just a little run down. . . .Well I guess an ALL of the ABOVE option is possible. What do you do? Here’s my current approach, thanks to that discussion about that Covey approach to the 7 Habits. Regroup, recover and let the mind and body rest, instead of diving into the next project. Regarding projects, property, and finding a good time to […]

What have we learned? Roll with it. . . What have we forgotten? The things that really are not important and don’t really matter at the end of our day. What do we need more of? Magical fibers of love. . .AKA dog fur. Sunsets, beach walks, laughter. What do we live by? Move more, laugh a lot, focus on what matters.

The Links

January 3, 2020 by dpankiewicz

If you want water, a view of the bay, several holes along a busy HWY 98 and well manicured greens the Links at Sandestin is the place. The longest hole on the course is currently under construction due to maintenance of the sea wall. (It is no longer the longest hole, for now.) Hopefully it will allow you to save a few strokes/balls.

Strolling Slowly

Instead of a long speedy walk we decided to stop and see if the turtle was sunning itself on the road or if it would cross the road?

Never did I ever, think I’d be a Planet Fitness member.

December 18, 2019 by dpankiewicz

There were many years where Monday would be leg day: Squats, presses, leg extensions, lying leg curls, walking lunges. All those hard core bodybuilding workout items. Tuesday would be the big chest day to get full utilization of the decline, incline and flat benches. Never did I ever think going to PF and having only smith machines, matrix and hammer strength machines would be enough. Then life decided to change things up for me and being able to find a […]
