WELCOME!

Finding time to sort through the everyday

A collection of writings, explorations, musings, and more. The place where I wonder, ponder, and begin to figure out my life. Yes, it has taken me nearly 50 years to figure out that I am not beholden to anyone’s ideals or intentions, but it is better now, than never.

    Since October didn’t quite go as planned, and I need something to keep my brain busy, I am going to try and write again every day in December. I do have all kinds of things going on, but I need something that will keep me distracted, if that makes sense. It is a busy month

  • October Journal Challenge: Opportunities ahead for me

    What do I see ahead for me? I think it depends on the context and I am a big believer in worrying about jinxing myself! Lots of people believe we can manifest things. In fact, one of my ‘homework’ assignments this week was to lookup Ester (Abraham) Hicks, who is an American ‘motivational’ speaker. She
