Dag. It’s been a while since I wrote. I’m not sure I’ve ever taken this amount of time away from it. I’ve just gotten quieter with age. It’s so funny… I can remember how chatty I was as a child and how my mom would continually wish for me to quiet down. She couldn’t understand … Read More
One thing I know for sure about this pandemic/shutdown is that we’ve all had enough time to do SOMETHING different if we stay safe. Make use of the confines of our homes and do anything different consistently for as long as we’re locked up (if we have the bandwidth). The energy around us sure makes … Read More
2020 has been quite the year thus far. Standing on the brink of May and we’ve been through a lot. I was on medical leave for 6 weeks. About week 2 of that leave, a worldwide pandemic of coronavirus (COVID-19) started to sweep across and sicken droves of people. This called for a worldwide quarantine- … Read More
Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse, wouldn’t quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out. -Frank Abagnale, Sr. – Catch Me If You Can Two years ago, I was in a peculiar situation.

But unlike the tropes that the Matrix sets forth that we’re involuntarily being inserted into this reality and be passively made available … Read More
I could have sworn I’ve written about him more, but I guess I haven’t. I scoured the pages of my blog for his reference but really only found two. The Chocolate Doctor. The apparition that has materialized in my dreams a number of times. When he shows up in the dream, I INSTANTLY know who … Read More
There were a bevy of personalities I felt that if they were in my life or contributed in a significant way, I would have become a very different person. While I don’t outwardly regret who I have become up to this point, I am riddled with… “what if’s”. Most often when I am aware of … Read More
Getting fitted for the tuxedo he would have worn to walk me down the aisle. I guess if you put all the logic pieces together at age 7 or 8… it makes sense. They tell you that the goal is to marry someone who loves you. Who will always take care of you and … Read More
<warning – this may be very much a rant with no conclusion. *shrugs* #notsorry > Marriage. What a confusing institution. As women in this western society (and maybe others but I can only speak to the one I actively participate in) and of a certain age – you’re GROOMED to be someone’s wife. I was. … Read More
