Do you consider yourself to be rude or polite? Is the word "thank-you" a forgotten term, or is it something you say regularly? Do you pass wind in public and laugh out loud, or do your best to remember the old saying "a time and a place?" Ah, we all have different opinions on manners, but one thing is for sure: to bring your best manners forward when working with people is a great way to share kindness. In today's episode I share a few stories and discuss ways that through good manners we can be kind, inclusive and simply nice to others.

Witches don't belong on Christmas trees, so why are stores blending the holidays into one big commercial display?  In today's episode, I share my own feelings on early celebrations and discuss reasons why retailers may be chomping at the bit to get a start on Christmas decor. With Halloween around the corner, I also reflect on the challenges of fireworks, and how time and place can make a difference for those affected.   Am I getting old and grumpy, or just simply saying it like it is?  Lots to talk about, and with a bit of consideration we can all find ways to get along.

Beauty from Within is my personal story about a time when I was headed down the path of an eating disorder. In dealing with grief and loss, I found solace in fitness, and attempted to regain control of my world through excessive dieting. This is the story of my journey, and my appreciation for an amazing family doctor who helped me regain a healthy focus. This took me many years to share this story in writing, and today this takes more courage to record it and share it.  *Includes a narrated version of the story Beauty from Within, written by Linda Leverman and included in the book Relax & Read, A Creative Collection of Stories.

Thanksgiving is a time to show gratitude, reflect on what we have and think about how we can make the world a better place.  I recorded this episode early in the morning, the day after Thanksgiving dinner.  It's amazing how time in the kitchen can bring lots of time to ponder life, in addition to producing culinary delights. In this episode I share childhood memories, a focus on the non-monetary values we shared growing up, and talk about lessons I have learned about life and people.  A little bit about our "Personal Inventories" and how through acceptance of who we are and how we are built differently can go a long way.

Working in the yard can be a catalyst for deep thought. From the touch of the breeze to warm sun on our backs, it's incredible how changing seasons can impact our thought processes, reflections and moods.  In this episode I share some stories from my own back yard, including lessons I have learned through mishaps, and how seasons can trigger memories from the past. From childhood memories to loss of loved ones, memories can bring joy and sadness. I share some of my own personal stories, and how I have used positive mindset to move forward.

Good friends are like family, and friendships need to be nurtured. As we get older, we discover who are friends truly are, and there's simply no room for fair-weathered friends.  In this episode I chat about the value of good friendships, including nearby and far away, with a reminder to reach out to old friends when you begin to lose touch.

Cluck off - I'm busy recording.  Ok, I'm being a bit cheeky.  This is my first episode in my new podcast series. I'm Lindy, and I just entered the last year in my 50's. My latest line is, "Don't mind me, I'll be 60 in a year."  It's true, I'm 59 years old and headed into a different time of my life.  I don't care anymore if my socks match or if I wore the same pants three days in a row.  Make-up or no-make up, I am still me and that's the way it is.  I'm young enough to keep learning and old enough to know better.  I'm human and I screw up.  Who doesn't?  So let's sit back, talk about life, real stuff and keep it positive.  If you're my age or older, you'll likely relate.  For younger listeners, fasten your seatbelt because someday you'll be my age.  Happy listening!
