Is it still January? January has been the longest year ever. You read that correctly. Why does January always feel like this? Maybe it's just me because my spouse looked at me as if I were a crazy person when I mentioned this. I am, in fact, a little certifiable, but...
In Her Own Words
A friend of mine died this week. Since 2020, she has battled Stage 4 Pancreatic cancer with a spiritual grace that was inspiring. We met through mutual friends and I was instantly attracted to her warm and welcoming personality. She quietly fought with humor and was...
It’s Not Just For Drinking Anymore
A little more than a week ago, there was a buzz circulating around The Stanley Cup. I was intrigued on why the NHL was having their trophy displayed at Target. Seriously. That was what I thought was happening when the news circulated regarding the crowds of people...
Wednesday Words – Relevancy
The word relevancy has been giving me nightmares. This whole social media bonanza of jockeying for position is beyond anything I could have ever imagined. The algorithms. The time of the day you should post because this is when the data shows the most engagements. The...
Wednesday Words – Another Day
It's the third day in the New Year. Just not sure which day. Actually, you are just fortunate enough that I figured it out as I was drinking my bitch slap AKA coffee. It was then I realized that I don't have a topic today. That's kind of a bad way to start the new...
Wednesday Words – An Extra Dose

Wednesday Words – Moving Pieces
"Let's rearrange the room." These were my words on Sunday to my spouse. Words that he could have avoided had he just run away like any other spouse would have. It was followed up by "Hear me out" and "I know it sounds crazy". The blank stare. The silence. Yep. I know...
Wednesday Words – Mystery Writer
What do you do? This is one of those intro question that people tend to gravitate to when meeting someone new. Is it invasive? A little. Especially, when you tell them you are a writer. Some of the time you are met with silence and then other times you are met with an...
Wednesday Words – It’s all relative
Look out world....I got my cast off and I am back in my beautiful appendage AKA the boot. I am navigating okay. There might be some grunting as I walk. They did break my heel in order to align my foot so I suppose it is only natural that I grimace. My doctor looked as...
