2017 hasn’t been a great year has it? There have been a lot of trials and tribulations. I suspect that some of that valuable lesson-type material will continue into 2018, but it feels lighter already. I won’t be sad to see 2017 go. Many of us have been stuck and by stuck, I just mean …

I’ve actually been musing for several days. So here goes… I hope that you all had a lovely holiday with your family. I am very adamant about saying holiday as I don’t know what you specifically celebrate. My former celebrations were quite eclectic as time went on and in all honesty, Christmas was always about …

I have had a lot of grief this week. It’s fresh, just like I picked it up from the store yesterday. Of course I do a lot of inner pondering and such, and one of the topics that I mulled over was living in the now. That’s a big thing you know. I actually enjoyed …

Today I bring tidings of good cheer. LOL I don’t know where I get this stuff…it just pops into my mind and rolls off of my fingertips here. But truly, I had such a lovely experience today with my Uber drivers to Goddard and back that I want to share. My first Uber driver was …

I have a lot of changes going on inside of me and don’t know where to start, but I feel like I want to try and quantify it in some way so here I am. I just published an article, the first I’ve written in a very long time. It probably wasn’t my best work …

Yesterday was my mother Linda’s birthday. She would have been 74 years old, and in the picture she was 71 (her last birthday). I was going to post in her honor yesterday but was bummed about the date so held off until today. Mom loved parties and having a good time, so next time you …

I have not been excited about anything, truly, in a long time. So I thought first I would share with you something I colored in from my adult coloring book. I did this a few weeks ago but just could not get excited about it at that time. I keep reading that being creative will …

Hoping that this doesn’t come out like garbledygook. I have no idea why that was **the** word to use but it is. I heard it in my mind twice, so there you go. And look – it’s already garbled. I also was nudged to use an image from my media library and without knowing what, …

Musings for 9/28/2017
I stopped writing for awhile, at least regularly, as things were just bottled up inside of me. One thing I learned during this period, though, was that I absolutely had to sit with what I was feeling and stop running from it. That took a lot for me to do, as even the idea of …
