Guess what!? I just found myself at home with only the dog for the next hour. Not even any neighbors from the sound of it. It’s raining and I’ve opened a window to listen. The last few weeks have been intense as I started a couple new day jobs. There are so many things I … Continue reading A Little Quiet Time
It’s Release Day!
TODAY IS RELEASE DAY! This is my first solo acoustic album. Some songs were written during lockdown when we were all in a crazy unknown space. All are songs of love. Some to places, some to family, some to our neighbors, & yes, even a couple to our sweethearts. Stream or download on your preferred … Continue reading It’s Release Day!
Garden Meditation Day
What a great holiday today is. It is a bit rainy here, so I am celebrating by having a cup of tea while checking in on my house plants. I am also embodying the spirit of the holiday in about an hour by creating a self spa day. This will include a meditation while soaking … Continue reading Garden Meditation Day
Pep Talk
How people want you to view an aligned, centered, and enlightened cup of coffee. Today I made a full pot of very strong coffee. Partially because I wanted that boost and partially because I misjudged how much was in the bag and it all dumped out into the filter. Did I mention I also spilled … Continue reading Pep Talk

Lent, Kindness, and Astrology
Today I wanted to share with you the three events listed on my calendar for tomorrow. The first is Ash Wednesday. I never really heard of Ash Wednesday until I was an adult. Our family was brought up in the Pentecostal tradition which is quite possibly the furthest in contrast to the Roman Catholic church. … Continue reading Lent, Kindness, and Astrology
Van Gogh and the Funky Bunch
Dang, I was in a mood this morning. It was a mix of anger, frustration, sadness, and frigidness, all for no good reason. As I looked outside, there was nothing, no birds or critters, bare trees, dry, not even a breeze. I know the snow is coming. At least that will change the landscape. Meanwhile, … Continue reading Van Gogh and the Funky Bunch
Dolly, Feelings, & Forgiveness
"I have to not harden my heart, because I want to stay open to feel things. So when I hurt, I hurt all over. And when I cry, I cry real hard. And when I’m mad, I’m mad all over. I’m just a person; I like to experience whatever the feeling is and whatever I’m … Continue reading Dolly, Feelings, & Forgiveness
A Rogue Bead
In 2020, I bought my first mala beads. It was made of sandalwood and turquoise. I wasn't sure at the time if I would use it with mantras, but since I was doing a 108 sun salutation challenge virtually with some friends, it seemed appropriate. As I learned more about mantras and affirmations, I did … Continue reading A Rogue Bead
Full Moon Gratitude Prayers
Tomorrow's full moon in Cancer falls on the anniversary of my mother's death. This will be thirty-three years she has been gone. It is strange living longer than she did. Most times, I'm not necessarily sad, but then it will hit me at moments of importance in my life. This year I am approaching it … Continue reading Full Moon Gratitude Prayers
