The truth is this week has been emotionally mind-boggling, which I suppose could be considered a mixed metaphor. I had a dream early last week that I was standing on a wall and watching floodwaters rise. The water was churning and muddy, but I knew that it would soon be rising over my feet. Rather […]
Some fantastic things are happening in my life right now. Meaning I’m either laughing with delight or on my knees with gratitude in my heart and tears running down my cheeks or both at the same time! Because I gain understanding and insight when I share my thoughts and ideas with others, I first want […]

The truth is that we often feel the need to sugar coat the ugly truth. Why is this? I know I do it – sometimes to protect people I love, sometimes to protect myself, sometimes to protect a favorite illusion. Today I filled out a health survey from my new insurance company. Based on my […]
Today is my daughter’s birthday. We have had a good week together, enjoying spring break with family in Arizona where we took every opportunity to celebrate her birthday in fun and silly ways. This morning was the official day she was born and I took a few moments to reflect on that day 14 years […]
Heartsick, sick with a fever, sick of work, sick in the head, sick as a dog… So many ways to be mentally and physically not well. Everyone I know is either getting sick, being sick, getting over being sick, caring for someone who is sick or trying to avoid everyone who is sick so they […]
