Hi Coachy Loves. I’m sitting out here in this beautiful out of doors because it is summer. You can see the beautiful flowers behind me and the breeze is blowing, and the summer is here and it’s just gorgeous. I was having a client call earlier and we talked about the fact that it’s summer now. I was telling this client last month that one of the things I go in and add into my calendar is I write in “Protect June.” By that, I mean June is a frickin’ crazy month for a lot of us.

My First Ambulance Ride
On Tuesday morning about 5AM, I took my first ambulance ride. Here's the set-up. Sunday night: arrive home from a 12 day trip to Alaska. Was amazing.

I was bored with my acrylic painting work, and I needed a shift, a change. So, I hopped online to see what I could find that might inspire me.
