• The Ebb and Flow of Life

  The Sunday morning I got to sing a solo recently was a big high for me. It felt really good to be in my wheelhouse once again. Music was my first love, first passion and church ministry that came naturally for me with my family. The last two years everything has been difficult. I tried…

• Forgetful

  This morning I plugged in my phone to get it a little more charged. It was just shy a few percentages of being completely full once more. I hate having it less than when I go to an appointment and don’t know how long I will be gone. So I didn’t predict this happening, but…

• The Keffiyeh

  Memories have resurfaced in seeing this scarf on American campuses and really domestically, coast to coast. I still remember as a child during the Clinton Administration watching Yasser Arafat on the news proudly wearing his keffiyeh as the PLO Leader, the Palestine Liberation Organization at Camp David. Watching some of the Jewish interviews on Fox…

• 24 Years Later… Thoughts

• Timing & Buildings

  Usually my brother drives my Mom to certain local doctor appointments. He’s under the weather though and Mom requested me for this morning. It’s been a while since I have even been to the foot doctor, but today was her day for her nail trim. The time is really what killed me though, 7:30 am.…

• Screen Time

  My eyes are getting tired of staring at screens. My photos of what I need to research are on my phone and there are too many of them to individually put onto my laptop. The screen on my phone is driving me batty, but I am making progress. I have to say though it’s really…
