  • Well, well, well…

    Well, well, well…

    I’ve been on a hiatus. Not on purpose. I can’t give one good reason for not writing, podcasting, etc. So, here’s a few: I’m back now. My goal is to write daily. My New Year’s resolution was to create and adhere to a schedule. That hasn’t happened. But, I did attempt dry January. If all…

  • Christmas with Cancer

    I haven’t made time to write much. This cancer has had me so focused on my treatment, the next steps, what steps are coming up. To catch you up on everything, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in February. I underwent a minor surgery in March to have my port installed. I then started chemo…

  • Drinks at Dusk

    I’m thinking about starting a podcast. Not because I feel like the next Jay Shetty. Here’s the basis for it. I know a lot of interesting people; Ordinary but also really extraordinary people.

  • To Laugh

    I’ve decided… I’m going to focus on laughing more. The more I talk to the people close to me, the more I realize that the death of my parents took me away from me.  As I am slowly healing, less people are afraid to point it out. I am not the same person I used…

  • The Thing About Getting Old

    The Thing About Getting Old

    No old(er) person can convince you that their throbbing knee or sore elbow is what is to come.  I hit 40 and shit just went slidin’ down hill.  I got an X-ray on my shoulder last week and an MRI yesterday.  I tried to go to the gym this week.  My body was like, “Who…

  • My Way Home

    My Way Home

    I lived 6 different places before the age of 8. Lately, I’ve been thinking about those places, what they were like, what life was like, etc. I try to remember what my room looked like, the names of friends, my teachers. I do remember being home alone a lot. My mom worked. And we had…

  • Goodnight Dad

    When it’s midnight and you happen to check your phone only to see your dad had called at 11:23! Your heart STOPS. IT STOPS. You call back, panicked. You review all the potential emergencies in your head like a rolodex, certain you will have to rush over. You’re hoping for a miracle. The voice that…
