Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts on the importance of rituals. It’s intriguing. It got me thinking, what are my rituals and how often do I stick to them. * * * When I was in my late teens and early twenties, […]
Welcomed Death
It started on Saturday morning. Bash woke up not feeling well. He likes to sleep in the bathtub and relax as part of his healing process. I thought he was kidding. He can’t be sick…they don’t have to go to school on Monday. Bash isn’t a faker, at least when it’s not a school day. […]
Space & Boundaries
Welcome to the New Year! Hopefully this finds you healthy, happy and excited to tackle the adventures you pursue this year. I absolutely LOVE New Year resolutions. Usually I take 3-5 under my wing and spend the year completing them. I haven’t failed myself in 8 years. I don’t do the typical loose weight-ish resolutions, […]
Being YOU
Instagram is so pretty. I look in awe at everyone’s life and wonder how I can get mine to be just a little more like theirs. Then I remember, like snapchat, there are filters and people use them. It’s hard to get a glimpse of “real-life” when you look at instagram. The filters and the […]
Driftwood Art

What the FUNK?
Does anyone else feel like their life is COMPLETELY disrupted by the solar eclipse? My life, on the outside, hasn’t really seen much change, however, I feel like that eclipse has torn through the life of ones I care about and not in a particularly good way. For instance, my partner in crime at work… […]
I Miss You.
It’s your birthday today. I’d like to take this moment to say… I Miss You. And, if it makes a difference I’m reminded daily at how selfish I was with our “friendship”. You were constantly there for me, available at every single hour, offering more guidance and wisdom than I ever though possible. You carried […]
Grace.
Do you believe that everyone you meet has a lesson for you to learn on your journey? I do too. If you answered no, I’d really like to chat with why you don’t think so, because I think that especially the people we DON’T get along with probably have the most to teach us. But […]
