    2019-09-27 Austin Day 0 – Arriving Home

    This morning I woke up in one of my favorite places. My bedroom in the corner of the house of my Texas bestie. It really does feel great to be home. It’s not my home of course but you know what they say, about home and the heart. Such truth. My friends’ home has been…

  • 2019-09-26 The In-Between Place 🌍 ☀️ 💚

    It’s no secret I don’t care for air travel, but something about a solitary journey through the sky changes my mind. Not about the flying, but a shift of thought, deeper, more clear. Brighter perhaps. Lifting off the ground I’m physically detached from the me that exists on the ground. The mother, daughter, lover, friend,…

    2019-07-30 NYC Day 5 – A Girl and Her Limits

    Nothing like trying to remember exactly what life was like 48 hours and 1,241 miles ago, especially when traveling has created a haze around everything. Where was I at again? Oh yeah, New York City. It was a Monday in the year 2019 and I was just a girl traveling with her family and trying…

    2019-07-29 NYC Day 4 – An Afternoon at Coney Island

    Sunday was a day we didn’t book anything and really kind of left open so we could either rest and recover or do something else that folks were in the mood for. For the current crew, this meant a little of both. Two of our four kids really wanted to experience Coney Island while the…

    Much like the two previous days, we let the kids sleep in and only really got started with our day when everyone was up and ready. Yesterday was a hot one here in the big city and so after Z and I returned for our walk around the current blocks and reported that that it…

    2019-07-27 NYC Day 2 – A Wicked Good Time

    The kids don’t wake up until noon which gives me plenty of time to write and walk to the corner market to refresh our depleted food supply. Yesterday I finished all my write-ups for residency and getting that submitted will be a load off of my mind. I also moved all the pics from my…
