Reflecting on 2019 from a eucalyptus and lavender steam and hot tub on NYE is NOT how I thought the year would go out. A second round of pneumonia pre- Christmas and the kid’s holiday break was mostly executed from the family room where I quarantined myself. A pasty, pale, bobbleheaded sloth of sick and…

No Pain No Champagne subtitle: Crown
Yesterday was my favorite holiday: Stafford Wine Fest. I came from a place of “yes”. I misplaced my hat and because these things find ME, I carried on in a bedazzled crown for the next 10 hours. I have pictures. There was a lot of peopling. This is where things get fuzzy. Today’s run is…

This is the law of co-creation…. You are welcomed to look this up yourself. I WILL touch upon this at a later date. The funny thing…
The Butterfly Effect

It’s DEFINITELY not a #yellyvoice I find nor have used. I am profoundly troubled and amazed and defeated??? that Lily LaRue has been gone 3 years. It feels…
