Thank Dog

I am grateful that IWD was only 23 hours.

A Comforting Time

I am grateful for the memories I have… it is interesting how memories smooth the rough edges of the past. We slip into them like a big comfy king-size bed. I have memories of great rock n’ roll albums, warm open friendships, beer and weed. Maybe something a bit more for those weekend nights. The…

My Wheelhouse

Even though I have used the title of, My Wheelhouse, believe it or not, this post is not about boating. This past Sunday I was asked to volunteer at a jazz concert that would benefit the victims of the fires in Los Angeles county. The concert was held at South Coast Winery in Temecula California….

It is called Futbol

What a week for observing futbol/soccer! Yesterday, the 26th, I attended the She Believes Cup tournament in San Diego.

Mi Familia

When I see and hear how some families interact with each other, I am so grateful that my entire family is full of love and support. Life is better when you have love in it.  

Mirrors & Smoke

I am grateful for the amazing people I interact with every day. Healing, falling, learning: all Grace. Why point fingers to problems? They’re all within to be healed. Keep stepping, my friends. (I’m also grateful I’m still trusted to produce ARO)
