Some recent comments from visitors to this site:

Attaboy, attaboy, attaboy! Great blog! Love the writing, humor, photography, info, and the tender and personal touch. It seems that you're making progress on all your goals. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Zenda.

First of all, I am sooooo thrilled for you and Zenda..., that the trial she is in is working, How absolutely blessed you both are… it is so reassuring that there are great and good things that are happening, with cancer patients and families...  yours being one of them.  Kudos to you both.

Someone on Dr. Oz's program today, asked him what he thought of the new health plan, etc....and his response was, that 87% of Americans are either obese or over weight....and until that is addressed and made better, the health plan will go bankrupt in the end, anyway.

How happy I am to hear from you and all the good news you shared….  will keep Zenda on my prayer list . Love and God Bless

Way to go Skip, don't loose too much weight, you might blow away.

I’m glad to hear from you and to hear that you and Zenda are doing so well. Thrilled, actually, to know Zenda’s health is so good---and that you are living miracles! Peace and joy to you both.

I always value hearing from you!  You and Zenda have my support and prayers, and I'm so glad to hear how well you both are doing. Loved the photo of the church in Santa Fe...dove and all!

Your web site is so cool!  I've just read some of it and will savor the thoughts and visions until I need inspired again and sit down to read more of it! Thanks!!

You have given yourself a great deal of incentive by publishing your goals! I've been plugging away at a local physical therapy gym and have lost inches and about eight pounds.  It's hard work, but can easily become a healthy addiction.

Thanks a lot, Skip. All those goals and resolutions are admirable. Be well.

Just checked out your site. Cool! I'm rootin for ya in your life ambitions, man, and anxious to read the book.

May The Great Spirit watch over you both!

And this, from a recent Brains on Fire blog: "Skip, you probably don’t remember me but your stories, like driving all night to apply in person for a creative director job… still stick with me today. Thanks for inspiring me to think big."

Let's stay in touch!
If you can't drop in, at least drop me an email.
Old friends, new friends, family, or web surfer... I'd love to hear from you. Your (positive) encouragement and feedback are definitely invited, and, with your "okay" I'll  publish a few comments on this page (scroll down!)

I'm definitely open to suggestions, whether on how to improve this new website, how to lose weight, to add muscle, to elimate clutter, or to finish writing that book; finding a good agent, and getting published! And, yes, your secrets to self-discipline and focus are always welcomed. I look forward to hearing your thoughts now!

I've started this site with the idea that it would help to "force" me into action and get me working harder to reach my goals. I wanted to encourage others to do the same. With a little encouragement and effort, we can all make positive changes in our lives. And the world.

Along the way, this site grew to cover the topic of mental illness, too. I've been pretty open about my own struggles with bipolar and OCD; and my book writing gets into much more depth on the subject. So, again, email me, ask questions, say "hi!" Thanks so much!
