Musings for 8/16/2017
I want to start this post by remembering Denise Perkins. Her birthday is today and her friends and family miss her. <3 But the rest of it, some of y’all might not like (repeat that in your best Southern drawl – for you Northerners, something close to Forrest Gump). I just can’t hold it in …

Not Amused on 8/14/2017
So I posted on my Missingerin.net site, but I don’t fully express there because there is always the chance that one of her friends might be reading it. I do not want a child to have to be exposed to the immense feelings of grief and well, negativity that it brings. At home, we can’t …

Musings for 8/9/2017
I would have written yesterday but I was too busy all day. I spent all of my work day at the Civic Center at a symposium I’m working this week, and then did a much needed hour of yoga when I got home. That and dinner ate up my entire evening. I still had time …

Musings for 8/7/2017
Well I keep hearing we have to leave our baggage if we’re willing during this month of August. I guess on some level I must be willing but on this conscious level, I’m dang confused. I’m also laughing at myself because I tend to have issues come up that I have to confront head on …

Musings for 8/5/2017
I realized that I in fact did not finish my lament two days ago. I meant to write yesterday but got distracted when the cable/internet went out for FIFTEEN HOURS just around 3:30 pm yesterday. We knew how long it was out because Shaun couldn’t sleep and was up when it came back on. I …

Musings for 8/3/2017
Despite my best efforts, this month is taking a toll on me. I am very tired, achy, and right now have a smashing case of brain fog. It’s true that ignoring something doesn’t make it go away or better, but sometimes you just have to not consciously think about things. I literally think of Erin …

Musings for 7/31/2017 and Mexico Trip!
Hola peeps! Hehe, I said that so much last week I am still in Mexico mode. I think it’s nice to speak the language of where you are visiting when you can. It’s respectful, and considering that most of the world took it upon them to learn English, I try to reciprocate the courtesy. I …

Musings for 7/15/2017
I have been out of town and otherwise engaged recently and at one point was going to write offline on an airplane, but decided to play Candy Crush instead and finish listening to Keepers of the Garden by Dolores Cannon. If you aren’t familiar with her work, it’s phenomenal and this was a very good …

Musings for 7/5/2017
I began this earlier this morning but knew at the time that I didn’t know quite what my topic was. Now I do so onward and upward! Lately I’ve been struggling with world view, my view of daily reality, and the way others view reality. It must be true that we create our own reality …

Musings for 6/28/2017
Ah, hello good people. I wanted to write you yesterday but ran out of time (and just to be completely honest, I ran out of time yesterday 6/27 and so am finishing this up today). It’s been a weekend of anxiety for me and then I got a sore throat, but the good news is …
