Nothing
I got nothing. Nothing to write about. I have lists of ideas but I don’t feel like writing about any of them. I started writing a piece for a project I’m working on about an event that took place in 8th grade which in my experience was pretty much the suckiest year of living. I…

My Royal Red Gloves
Purchased on a whim, at a boutique nearby, their beauty and color captivated my eye. It was during my February “surround thyself with reds and pinks” days. A petite plaid-design of multiple shades of reds with accents of muted black going one way, gold the other, and a softer material of deep burgundy on the…

World Poetry Day
In honor of World Poetry Day, I am sharing a poem I just read in Joy Harjo’s Memoir, Poet Warrior: A Post Colonial Tale Every day is a reenactment of the creation story. We emerge from dense unspeakable material, through the shimmering power of dreaming stuff. This is the first world, and the last. Once…

Penn State Wins!
A follow-up to yesterday’s post about March Madness and Penn State making it to the NCAA Tournament. They were the underdogs for sure, last night, as they matched up with Texas A&M. I heard Charles Barkley predict before the game that A&M would win by a lot, at least 15 points. He was so wrong!!…

March Madness
“And the madness begins” is what was going to be the title, but really, the madness began awhile ago…several months ago when men’s college basketball began. I’m rather surprised to be so interested in the Final Four Tournament but then I guess it really shouldn’t be a surprise… I mean, I live with someone who…

Oscar Takes
I was excited to watch the 95th Academy Awards show last night. I’ve always been a movie buff and as many of you know, I had an almost-20-year run of Oscar celebrations with a childhood friend. We had many fun and wonderful traditions with our Academy Awards adventures but, alas, it came to an end…

Sunsets in Florida
I haven’t written for awhile because I was lucky enough to visit a friend in Florida. I’ve known her since before kindergarten and she moved there two years ago. Our moms were good friends too and so there’s a lot of history. I’ve been to Florida a handful of times over the years and have…

Memoirs
I have always liked reading memoirs. I like knowing the inner workings of someone’s mind and life. I suppose that’s partially why I became a psychotherapist. I learned that you never know what’s really going on for someone on the inside based on their outward appearances. You never know on the surface what is happening…

Beauty Actually
I saw Liam Neeson on The View yesterday and of course they talked about the many movies he has been in. One is Love Actually and it is a favorite Christmas movie of mine. I remember the first time seeing it thinking it was maybe a little corny but I loved it anyway. Who doesn’t…

Down Time – Productive After All
Turns out waiting for a cracked rib to heal takes longer than I had anticipated. I guess I was expecting a quick recovery. While the pain is gradually diminishing, I’m realizing that the more I rest, the faster it will heal. Early on I think I did too much and then was set back a…
