I feel like I slipped into an alternate universe. Maybe a different planet. Only a week or so ago I was emersed in paint and art and fun Today it’s all about yard work. Every day. Weeds. Hidden weeds, weeds no one can see. Literally hours of weeding. For reasons I’m unclear about. After puttingContinue reading “Art v.s weeds”

I feel productive when my days are filled with flow-like work. Our last few months in CA felt productive and fun because of the fast paced busy ness of doing multiple different art projects. Every day I was engaged. Every day was full. The gallery shows, the gala collaborations, the staging, the commissions, team buildingContinue reading “Productive”

Winslow Az, Kansas, Erie Canal. Upstate NY. Good road trip. We made it all the way back to New England.

I once met a guy in yoga who had so many coincidental things in common with me that we had a lot of laughs as we found each one out. We went to the same college at the same time, (in another state). Our birthdays were a day apart. We had left the same religion.Continue reading “Randomness”

We made a quick decision to move to Connecticut to help G’s aging parents. In the wake of the his brother’s passing and then aunt, his stepfather’s worsening emphysema, G would say he didn’t have a choice. He insisted that I did.

One thing I loved was that when I hung out with Rose the other day, it was for as long of a time as possible. We all left it up to Rose (or bedtime). She texted in the morning, she was dressed and waiting at 7am! Nice to be five minutes away. I picked herContinue reading “One positive thing”

This little town of Boise, Oklahoma has had some good surprises. Amazing Tacos at a family run restaurant, Awesome dinner! Oh my! Does Triple D know about this place? Very authentic, very generous portions,Continue reading “On the Road”

This is a good question for today. It’s a perfect question for an ironically perfectly sad day. Sad because we’ve had such a wonderful time here and now it’s time to go. Sad because my kids are in the middle of tough things. A breakup for one…yeah, hard things. Sad because even if I stayed,Continue reading “Five everyday Things for Happiness?”

This painting came to me as I was reflecting on the folktale called ‘The Raven who stole the Light’. It’s a pretty simple story, one that survived generations of retelling, but is packed with metaphors for everyone and anyone in all different stages and ages of life. An old man has hidden the light causingContinue reading “Light”

I decided to devote a chunk of time every morning to set up my mind (and heart) for a good day. I’m working on setting up a routine of meditation and intention so I can get out ahead of myself. I change it up every few days, but I’m experimenting with my own energy, basicallyContinue reading “One Positive”
