While I’m a firm believer that when we shuffle off our mortal coil, our consciousness and, for lack of a better term, our soul, may continue in some way, this post isn’t really going to talk about ghosts in a paranormal sense but ramble about other types of “ghosts”. You see, there is another way […]

Memento Mori
I was over on the Oregon coast Saturday through Monday this past week finally getting to spend some quality time with the Pacific Ocean. It had been since February that I’d been over to the coast. This has not been one of the better years for a number of reasons, but suffice to say, I […]
A Rewired Brain
I spent the evening with my mom, who’s just over the 2 year mark on being a widow since my dad died in 2024. The first year for her was chaotic and her health took some major hits so she really didn’t get a chance to even process the whole thing properly. So this year […]
My Social Battery is Dead
I desperately need rest and recharging. I feel like I’ve had to play the role of the Energizer Bunny and my batteries just died. Someone who isn’t an introvert would probably look at my last week and think, aside from not getting enough sleep, it all looks like a great time! I did have fun, […]
Out of Character
When was the last time you did something out of character? For me, I’m doing something right now that’s out of character for me. When I bought my tiny, teardrop trailer a couple years ago, I quickly found out that the particular brand had a following. The manufacturer, NuCamp, really leans into it and actually […]
More trips down memory lane …
So if anyone is wondering what Mario and I were doing in the 90s, this pile of old rave and club flyers gives a good clue! I’ve mentioned before we were DJs in the Los Angeles club and underground rave scene. During my closet clean out project last week, I also stumbled upon a plastic […]
Going Through Memories
Still going through the grief of losing my kitty, Freya. And apparently my “go to” for dealing with grief is cleaning and organizing. So I started going through the closet in my back bedroom which acts as my guest room, library and entertainment area (a 2nd tv, Nintendo 64, DVD and VCR). The closet had […]
It never ends …
As of writing this, it’s been 2002 days since Mario shuffled off this mortal coil. Two thousand and two sounds a lot crazier than “over 5 years”. It seriously does not seem like I’ve woken up that many times without him being in my life. The other day, I had to dig out the ol’ […]
Sad Songs DO Say So Much
This has not been one of my better weeks. Sadly, my kitty with the illness died on Monday night. Tuesday I had to make a 3 hour drive to pick up Mario’s dad at the airport on 3 hours sleep. Wednesday I found out that the Jeep repair I was originally quoted $1900 jumped to […]
Ramblings
It’s another one of those weeks where I really have a lot of my mind, but trouble writing about it. One of the things is the passage of time. I’m not sure I really valued time as much as I do now before loved ones in my life started dying, which is a bit of […]
In this boat.
Finally made it to the local widow’s lunch group again this past Monday. It’s often difficult for me to attend because it is a Monday at 11am. So if I have a client (or potential client) that wants a zoom or something, I’ve got to prioritize it. Everyone in the group totally understands. I’m the […]
Trying to Have a Summer
I’ve been desperately trying to have a summer while dealing with a cavalcade of problems on many fronts. My attempt to get out and relax in nature this past Sunday pretty much sums it up. Here’s what happened … Saturday night I got my inflatable kayak out. It lives in a large bag. I opened […]
