- Bio
- I am NOT a self-proclaimed Renaissance Woman in any sense; more a bookie with a passion for art, politics, children and spirituality ~ I adore my daughter who just turned 7. Daily it is affirmed she is the teacher and I am the student ~ Eccentricities include a love of reading about neuroscience for fun, a hen named Lollipop who escorts me to my car every morning (not kidding), and am damn excited polar fleece is always in style in the Pacific Northwest ~ Otherwise, I like my green tea and on the side of my cream, love shabby chic fashion, and am in awe of everything outdoors ~ I believe most policy answers are simple yet hard. The "status quo" has not been working for some time, which is evident in the state of our union ~ I consider myself a fiscally conservative Democrat (oxymoron?). I respect minority opinion and the absolute necessity it brings to the governing process. I loathe fear mongering and complaining for the sake of complaining which has become standard for political dissent ~ I subscribe to all and no religion at once. In other words, I believe they all point in the same direction. I utilize the principles and/or rituals while ignoring any law making. Satyagraha is the philosophy I align closest with ~ Rule 62 always applies ~ All in all, I cherish life!

Open Call: You, Mr. Smith and Lincoln
I am bone tired of the stale GOP fiscal arguments. The fact they are succeeding is crumbling my morale to a point of stasis. Why didn’t these arguments work last November when the country was barreling towards an economic depression (call it a repression if you like) not seen since the… Read full post »
The Gift of Being an Alcoholic...
…in recovery (that is).
While the taboo of alcoholism has worn off, some, over time, the stigma of its personal curse never has. Even amongst my fellows in recovery, many view themselves/… Read full post »
Jessie would be starting his senior year in high school today. Would he have grown tall or been short like his father? Would he have been as fiercely handsome? Would his sensitivity shone through, his essence been bold, and his hands have been large? It is a relief to me today… Read full post »
Mr. President, Please Put Your Jacket On!
Contrary to recommended ettiquette, I'm going to say it, "I voted for him." I was never on the fence with any other candidate. As the race became more, well, racy, my vote became more entrenched. My family huddled around the television for the innaugural festivities with tissues in… Read full post »
