I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
This had been a day full of excitement. They packed a number of activities into the day to keep themselves busy. And, now they were at the pub that she would have loved to have gone to. It was fun and a wine cellar to rejoice. Today had […]
I picked my word for next year. Joy! I’m bringing it back. I hope it becomes all the rage. Now, while I have a wonderful, positive word there are some words I am done with. Some I can share with you. Some, I cannot. Wish I could. But […]

Try to sleep. Feel tired. Exhausted. Mind racing. Knees sore. Legs twitchy. Stare at the ceiling. Don’t count sheep. Cannot see them. Think through should-have-been retorts. Laugh at the incredulous. Scene after scene. Thought after thought. Snippets. Looking for the one bright light. Fall asleep sitting. Wake up […]
I don’t like waffle cones. Not one bit. However, it smells divinely. It’s tempting until I remember the taste. I’m not a big ice cream fan. Admittedly, ice cream can on ocassion lead to belly aches and worse. Oh my. Yet, in the winter I tend to forget […]
From a young age, I’ve been a storyteller. I would perform on stage with my own stories or a Dickens story. Nowadays, everyone is a storyteller in some way or form. From Twitter, to Facebook, to Instagram you are curating a narrative. Those narratives are often short form. […]
It was going to be an exciting new world for them. It all looked old, word down, and maybe even decrepit. However, it was now theirs. What a lovely word to use. Theirs. That pile of tires. Theirs. The rusted doors. Theirs. And, the future was bright. They […]
The morning light is so dark The heart racing The eyes tired but can’t be shut The throat is tight The lips protruding Breathe in, Breathe out Count some more sheep Yet the ghosts linger and float about Not much to be done Supposedly there’s fun to be […]
Nothing during and coming out of this pandemic had stayed the same. Nor can it. Nor should it, necessarily. One thing that has changed for me, besides my level of cynacism, is my writing time and writing style. Like clockwork, everyday for more than five years, I always set […]
