Blog postWinter is a dolphin who was stranded on a beach with wire around her tail in Florida. She was rescued by the team at Clearwater Marine Aquarium in 2005.
When Winter got to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium (CMA), the medical team observed she was swimming in such a way that was hurting her spine, and would eventually paralyze her. They brought in a team of doctors to help fit her with a prosthetic tail, but she rejected a few of them prior to finding the correct one that would work with6 months ago Read more -
Blog postI have had an interest in genealogy since I was young. I joined Ancestry in 2009, adding the relatives that I knew: my parents, my grandparents on both sides, and my great grandparents on both sides.
When I got stumped, I started reaching out to my family. I was given a book by my grandfather, who’s uncle had compiled that line back to the early 1600’s!
I thought, How cool is this??! It set me on a path to see how far back I could go on the other branches of my tree! This was10 months ago Read more -
Blog postThere are many ways to select a greeting card. Some people, like me, read every card and then go back and reread them to find the perfect one. Others, select them by the graphics, others select musical ones and on and on.
Early in our marriage, my husband, Lou, told me that his mom considered the card as important, if not more, than the gift. So I left the card selection for my mother in law to him.
We had the kids make cards, but that only lasted for a couple of years. Then L10 months ago Read more -
Blog postI have worked in an office for over 40 years. The last office I worked in for over 15 years and I spent more time with people in the office on a weekly basis than I did with my husband and children.

Blog postWhat’s your one word?
I’ve been watching the National Memorial Day Concert for as long as I can remember. I was introduced to it as a child when my paternal grandma was over for dinner one night and said she had to go home.
Being the young, inquisitive boy I was, I uttered my favorite word: “Why?”
She informed me it was to watch the National Memorial Day Concert.
As soon as she left, I went into the house and sat on the living room couch, with about ten minutes11 months ago Read more -
Blog postScrolling through Facebook after a long day of work one day, I came across this quote:
“If you wait until you have all of your ducks in a row, you’d never get across the street. Sometimes you just have to gather up what you’ve got and make a run for it.”
It resonated with me to my core, making me think back on all of the missed opportunities I had because I wanted to do tons of research on a subject before I made a decision—like my most recent endeavor I’m starting: a clothing1 year ago Read more -
Blog postLou and I have been talking about getting out of New York for years and eventually, we will find the right place, at the right time. We will move to a warmer climate and be able to enjoy golfing, camping and being outdoors all year round.
Although I do look forward to that, I know it will be strange not to have the changing of the seasons marked by the bone chilling wind and snow up to your chin give way to the muddy, water soaked yard and everything turning green followed by 100 degr1 year ago Read more -
Blog postSome may think that you must be successful to be happy. Others may think the opposite: You must be happy to be successful. Both of those thought patterns correlate with thinking that one has everything to do with the other.

Blog postI am having a difficult time writing the blog this month. Loren just came by, looked at the computer and commented that I hadn’t written anything yet.
‘It’s been a tough month,’ she said to me.
She is right. It has been.
I just want to say that I am heartbroken for my sister, brother in law, their family and his. Please add them to your prayers as they deal with the unfathomable tragedy of losing two loved ones just a day apart.

Titles By Louis A. Vendetti
Do you ever wonder why some people always seem to succeed, and others fail?
You already have access to all you need. If you want to learn how to use your true ability to access the secrets of success, then this may be the most important book you read this year, here's why ...But first a warning: Despite how success is portrayed in the media, or in movies, most of it doesn't happen overnight. The principles in this book are readily at your disposal right now, but some of them take time to implement in your life. If you are impatient, or looking for a quick fix, this book probably isn't for you. On the other hand, if you are willing to implement some simple habits and new mindset ideas into your life, then we encourage you to read on.
Most "overnight" successes have been developed with small changes in daily habits and mindset tweaks, one day at a time. You will be surprised how simple these habits are, yet the majority of the people you know do not implement them on a regular basis. We asked over 20 experts to describe these habits for us, and the result was The Success Code.
The Success Code is a life lesson of habits, mindsets and stories of how they have been used to overcome obstacles and achieve success.
It's more than just about habits though....

Do you know anyone who seems "chronically" happy? How do they do it? Is it really as easy as a group of small habits?
You may already have access to all you need. If you want to control the level of happiness in your life, then this may be the most important book you read this year, here's why ...
But first a warning: Despite most people desiring to be happy, many will overlook the simple principles in these pages. If you tend to look at ideas and say things like I already tried that or that won't work for you may want to pass on this book. The principles in this book are at your disposal right now, but some of them take time to implement in your life. If you are impatient, or looking for a quick fix, this book probably isn't for you. On the other hand, if you are willing to approach these habits with an open mind, you are bound to find more than one way to change your outlook on life right away.
Happiness is considered by many as a choice. It's not always easy to see that, but with small changes in daily habits and adjusting your thinking, you will be surprised at how things can change. We asked over 20 experts to describe their most successful "happiness" habits for us, and the result was The Happiness Code.
The Happiness Code is a life lesson of habits, mindsets and stories of how they have been used to create fulfilment.
It's more than just about habits though....

When another child asked Louis Vendetti about his disability at the age of five, he responded, “My legs have Cerebral Palsy.” In this way, he never let his disability define him.
In this honest and insightful book, My Disability Doesn’t Define Me, Vendetti shares with us his personal journey as a young man with Cerebral Palsy. Through his years in elementary school, secondary school, and then college, Vendetti and his mom quickly learned that advocating for himself required more than just a meeting with the school and some paperwork. It required a strength, perseverance, and resilience that Vendetti had to discover from within.
With his characteristic optimism, Vendetti gives us a glimpse at what it’s like to be a handi-capable student, courageously making his way through the public school and higher education systems. He proves that living with the challenges of a physical disability while balancing the demands of receiving an education can be hard, but it is possible.
Vendetti’s lessons and life experiences apply to anyone who has ever had to overcome a challenge or a struggle to find triumph and joy in the end, and will inspire us all to live our fullest and most capable lives.
