Someday the woman wishes the dirty dishes made it to the sink, that the sneakers weren’t dropped in the middle of the room, that there were more hours in the day, no correct that I don’t want or need more hours in the day.

I sat alone, journal on the table, writing, thinking about bicycling, bicycling in this place of a million bicycles, I too wanted to bicycle, to join in with the crowd not to move furniture like some do but to explore this place, this place full of history and story, this place of cafes and coffee...

Today, I booked a flight to Paris.  This trip is part healing journey, part future reconnaissance mission and part letting my inner gypsy stretch her wings after a year of staying put!  It has been two years since I have been to the city of lights.  The last time I was in Paris I was a wife, celebra...

Today was a beautiful, warm, sunny day in San Diego.  As my Sunday went by with intentionally less things on my to do list, I found myself early this afternoon debating, do I stay in perhaps enjoy a good book on my balcony, watching the sailboats elegantly glide the waters of the bay or do I leash B...

As I write this, it is Easter Sunday, April 4, 2021, this afternoon I was moving some items around to organize them in my spare room closet when I decided to look through a box of old photos.

Have you ever been with someone and they asked you the question “How are you?” and you begin to answer, honestly, truthfully, putting it all out on the table, only to notice their discomfort or even their attention subtly or perhaps not so subtly shift away from the conversation?

In December I had an idea, I wanted to change the format of my writing class.  I have been taking this program that looks at my numerology, astrology and my Human Design to ensure that the things that I have in my life and the things that I am building toward are in alignment with who I am as a pers...

I remember in my early 30’s picking up my very first self-help book. I was a mother of two children under the age of five. I was working full-time. I was exhausted and I was beginning to wonder what had happened to me. I had done all of the things I had been told to do, get a degree, get married and...

This past weekend I drove to Phoenix to visit my adult daughter Courtney, it had been almost a year since I had gotten to see her in person. Weekly zoom calls, while a great replacement had just not been the way I wanted to be with her on her birthday! 

I did everything along the way to prote
