    2025-04-27 Asked and Answered: Insights from I Ching Hexagram 64

    This week I’ve failed to finish (or even start) most items on my to-do list. I had a convo with my work wife, M, about this and we’re both suffering the same paralysis trying to get out of the gate. My mind is spinning and unable to stop long enough to focus on a task,…

    If you’re here for the sequel to the migraine saga, this is not the post you are looking for. /waves hand to punctuate Jedi mind powers…  One has to reach the conclusion before they are able to write the conclusion and though I feel I’m almost out of the woods (*hopefully*) I don’t want to…

    A lyric from a sad song about how tough life is and how terrible people can be. But we’re gonna stick around anyhow to witness how it all turns out. Right?!  What else can we do, anyway. The alternative is pretty bleak and I wouldn’t wish those thoughts on my worst enemy.  How about the…

    I had high hopes for August. Such high, high hopes. But sometimes a girl sets her expectations too high. Something in the Universe told me it would be a fantastic month so who was I to argue?!  About half way through I was still holding on to hope despite the “shit show” that had been…

    An oldie that never gets old. Maybe someday someone will say that about me. 😂 This past couple weeks reading fiction for The Good Life Review in between trips to different hospitals, medical centers, and council bluffs has me thinking of all these one or two line vignettes that feel like silk in my head.  Mostly…

    No… not another origin story for some superhero or where life on planet Earth started. This is an “Account” of where my poems originate. “Account” is the name of one publication I’m interested in submitting work to. Their unique spin in the literary world is that they ask for (and publish) a separate document explaining…

    My mind is spinning with so many things. Spirals and waves of thought and emotion. How on earth does one focus enough to spill all this out on a page in an organized way?  One doesn’t! 😂 But a girl can try.  I had such a strange evening last night that tumbled into a sleep…

    Awww Lawdy! What’s this now? I’ve got like a million-gazillion goings going on including moving my daughter back from Lincoln today, dealing with AC out at the house, an important TGLR meeting tomorrow, and this Noom nonsense I’ve committed to doing this week.  Why on Earth with all this, would my brain turn to a…
