2019-12-27 MFA Res Day 0
Why day 0? Cuz I’m a numbers nerd and all good counters start at 0. Today is my last minute mad scramble to get my act together and haul myself and half my world to Nebraska City for the start of my 4th official Residency for my MFA.💃💃💃 Festivities kick off this afternoon and I’m…

2019-12-12 Channeling the Chocolate Chip
This post must be dedicated to Michelle without whom I would not be inspired to try and be a Chocolate Chip cookie – today or ever! 😉 (Thanks for being a great accountability partner and an awesome human). I love a good chocolate chippy as much as the next girl, but for some reason the…

2019-12-03 Celebrating Success!
Somehow another month has slipped by. Somehow we’ve slid past the first of the fall/winter holidays and miraculously glossed right past the milestone that signified 2 months until the day of marriage vows. That was yesterday and I’m sure I could do a whole post about all of that, but it’s not what I’m aiming…

2019-07-24 Wild Wild West…
Or Wednesday or whatever. I have so freaking much I want to write about. I feel like I stepped out of the car when I arrived home on Sunday and right onto a carnival carousel that doesn’t have a stop button. Round and round I go. I still have thoughts from residency I’d like to…

2019-07-21 MFA Res Days 8 and 9 – Tough Choices

2019-07-19 MFA Res Day 7 – Deep Breath
Compared to the three previous days waking up today, despite still only having just shy of 4.5 hours of sleep, I’m feeling much closer to my center. Perhaps it’s because I just woke up and am enjoying my routine already but it could also be the fact that we are on the downhill slide of…

2019-07-18 MFA Res Day 4 (And 5 And 6)- Going Beyond the Pale…
And trying to get back. I’ve pushed past cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs and have moved into territory that is a little unfamiliar. Is this what this is supposed to be like? This has happened a little in the past two residencies but not like this one. I’m in such a strange headspace, bodyspace, universe space…

2019-07-16 MFA Res Day 3 – The Floodgates are Open
Yes, the floodgates are open now and it’s serious. They mean serious business. I’m seriously serious and afraid for my safety and sanity. I’m not being overly dramatic, I’m being… serious. Typically I would try to provide a brief synopsis of thought and feeling about the prior day, wrapping It with some overarching theme and…
