2025-08-13 Hands to Heart Center
It’s August. It’s the 13th day of the month, and the 13th day in a row I’ve woken with a headache or a migraine. And I’ve been so, so tired. Feeling tired all day is the result of struggling through these headaches, managing every moment like it’s the single cell of a spreadsheet that has…

2025-07-02 Welcome to July
After my last post a friend of mine messaged me and said “good luck doing nothing.” Or something like that and it’s true… I set an intention for June to do less.

2025-06-02 Live and Let Go
I’ve started a few new pieces of writing in the last month and haven’t finished a single one. Well, at least not to the point of posting or sharing with anyone. My mood on a daily basis has been unpredictable, and I’m in the upside down. What should bring me me joy does not, yet…

December 17th is a day that always seems to want to…

2024-10-31 A Spooky Sort of Update…
It feels great to be back on my elliptical machine. It was pretty depressing to be away for so long. The sadness and melancholy I suffered the last couple months was primarily due the big shift in my routine, but as life typically has it, the injury was not the only contributing factor to my…

2024-10-29 Still Kicking It (The Can, Down the Road)
September came and went. October too, it seems. How easily time slips away when… whenever, however, whatever always happens. It’s been a few months since I rubbed a couple sticks together and made a spark of a sentence. There are a few forces behind my hiatus from writing. The first of which is a fall…
