The current is so swift, whizzing by and with each wasted second, another opportunity is missed. My turn is never coming. “You cant make your dreams come true by waiting your turn!” She shouts over the teaming current. “But I have no idea what I’m doing!” I plead. “Neither does anyone else!” She shouts again….
I started this post cause I had a great title. I thought it would get a few laughs. Those in the know would nod their heads in recognition. MOTHER = GUILT for a list of reasons a mile long. All of the things we aren’t doing perfectly. All of the therapy hours we’re racking up…
The flu is no big deal. Or so I thought. My son gets his flu shot every year but me? Nah…don’t need it. Or so I thought. It turns out the flu is serious business. You always hear the headlines, thousands die every year from the flu, which sounds so foreign, happening somewhere else. Then…
The yogi in me has been working on evolving right out of my body for almost ten years. Some days feel more evolved than others. Amidst the vast array of spiritual and self-help books that defined my thirties some things about me are different, some things are exactly the same. Today I am focusing on…
The illustrious, miracle product Sun-In, graced the market with it’s presence in 1984. I was in the 6th grade and I was instantly smitten. I was born a tow-head.

“You’re not reading this AGAIN? Are you? Are YOU??” He asked me accusingly. “No!” I shouted back too quickly. Everyone knew I was lying. I started to laugh and blushed beyond belief. “So then WHY is there a bookmark in it? Why? Why?” He was firing accusations at me so fast, all I could do…
I had a few alternate titles to this blog post: Ode to Wine (but I can’t write a song so that didn’t work), Why Life is Better Drunk (my favorite title but I felt a bit harsh for this crowd), and Yay for Alcohol (but I do have teenage stepkids and what kind of example…
2012…a time of change? The end of the world? Upheaval? New consciousness? Age of Aquarius? Call it what you want, but no one can hide from the shift that is happening on the planet right now. It is the most exquisite time to be alive. Is it the end of the world? No, but it…
So I had an altercation with a traffic cop yesterday that set my whole day off on a bad note. I couldn’t figure out what was bugging me more; his abuse of authority or his tone when he called me ma’am. Both were unwelcomed. Maybe he was having a bad day, although it was 9am…
