Hi Everyone, It has been ages since I posted anything. I apologize for that, but lately I’ve felt a big pull to make changes and I’m still trying to discover exactly what that means.

A Stroll Through the Arboretum
It’s been a bit of a bluesy couple of weeks. Writing has been a bit tough. I missed posting last Friday. One of our cats ran off. He was a newly adopted, formerly feral boy. We think he might be hiding out in my neighbor's wild cat colony, but no one has really seen him. … Continue reading A Stroll Through the Arboretum
Thriving: Be Like The Weed
It’s funny, as soon as I mentioned that I wanted to do a multi-part series on thriving, I ran into a bit of a downer month. It was like the world was telling me "Hey lady, you don’t know as much as you think you do.” I ran into some big issues with a new … Continue reading Thriving: Be Like The Weed
Surviving or Thriving?
When I finished my cancer treatment, and I was seen at being “EOD” (meaning End of Disease); I became known as a survivor.

Dragon Lights
One of the really fun things about living in the Reno area is that for one entire month each year, the city celebrates art, in all its forms. It’s called Artown and all throughout July there are movies, dancing, drum circles, music, watercolor displays, workshops, and every else under the sun that supports a form … Continue reading Dragon Lights
Joy and Relationships (part 1)
I adore my hubby. He is my best friend; smart; playful; and a mountain of a man. Everyday, he tells me I’m beautiful. Everyday, he calls and texts me. Everyday, he thanks me for the meals I make, and the little things I do. He always checks to see how I am doing and … Continue reading Joy and Relationships (part 1)
