You’re here.

Leap into Love
I have been absent around these parts most of the month. As I have shared, most of 2024 has belonged in the $@!tter. But that is life. There are no promises for an easy life, much less perfection. I have promised to be approachable and honest here, so I there you go. No hiding. My life pretty much fell apart.

Pink Roses and Me
But, just like these roses with delicate petals at the top of thorns, I'm still trying to bloom. For roses to survive season to season, you cut the rose off at the head, in fact, it's called "dead-head"ing. This harsh tactic creates beautiful flowers with diaphanous wings of petals yet oak-like strength of stems the next Spring.
It’s Spring… So I’ll Follow the Sun
It’s Spring and while it rained in my house and made it a science project, I’ll follow the sun.
