Word from Virginia, Robert’s rescue dog “Tank/Hank” is settling in and doing well in their home. Lot’s of training on the horizon for the little rascal, but we all need training, right 😊?
Plato needed no training recognizing Q when she returned home. He was very happy to see her and so was her Uber driver❤️ (that’s me).
Now that we’re home, there’s a ton to catch up on: the yard, the mail, house stuff… and the bees, can’t forget the bees 🐝.
Half the hives across the US died this winter, and not just for the amateurs like me.
Thank goodness for Shava. It’s good to have a professional beekeeper around, making sure I avoid the irreversible mistakes. One hive is thriving, one is on the mend.
You know what I learned from her this time?
I may be in training forever, beekeeping is complicated🤔.
But that’s not a bad thing.
Being in training means we’re still learning… or at least trying to.
And if we listen, observe, and stay curious—whether it’s about bees, relationships, or how to brew better beverages, perhaps then our coffee and our lives won’t taste so bitter☕.
Perhaps we’ll remember how little time is left and how to appreciate what we do have⏳.
Being in training means two steps forward and, often, one step back. It doesn’t mean we’ve figured it out.
I’m still learning how to talk less and listen more. Quantz wishes me “good luck” on that 😆.
Training means practicing:
Stretching our legs in the morning with a little less groaning😩.
Caring for people (and animals) with more patience and less ego🙏.
Less curmudgeonly behavior when things don’t go our way. I’ve known Larry since college and we still enjoy lunch together, even if we’re both curmudgeons😄.
Training does not end with framed degrees or retirement.
If we’re lucky, the real training starts when we stop rushing and start noticing the beauty we have all around us. Elwood and Plato sure notice the beauty🐶!
This summer, put on your training wheels🚲🧠🌱. Try something new. Ask a different question. Take a walk with someone younger, or just hang out with a dwarf baby goat.
That’s what makes my brother Rob the GOAT (the greatest of all time)👍.
Keep squeezing the juice🍊 out of life and look for ways to help others.
If family or friends need help… referrals are the lifeblood of my business.
