Bringing an oldie back to the front page today, to celebrate the fortieth – I mean, twenty-nineth – birthday of my platonic soulmate, Timothy “Happy Potato” Fields. This is as accurate and relevant today as it was when I wrote it several years back and I love you even…
June 1, 2016. I became an Auntie again. The third time (on my side of the family, anyway). The first girl. Elliana Nichole. She’s incredible. I can’t wait to meet her. But that isn’t why my blog was late. …
This post is as much a reminder to me as a suggestion to anyone reading it. You see, I am trying mightily to get myself ‘right’ with the world. Striving to be the person I want to be, not the person circumstance has allowed me to end up. Which…

I am a lucky girl. I have my life-long platonic soulmate, Timothy, back home in Washington. I have my life-partner and husband, Mark, every day at my side. And I have my bestie. Abbie and I met in December of…
