March 11th, 2013 My writer friend Diane published a new blog on Saturday entitled “Feed the Soul”. It was just a short little post, but it made me stop, and for the last three days, ponder the question she posed. Her question was:
“What makes you joyful? What gets you out of your entanglement?”

March 10th, 2013 The widget wizard strikes again. Managing my blog in its new home on WordPress has been a challenge. Ever since I learned to build widgets on Typepad I felt a sense of overwhelming control. Someone else built my WordPress site and I felt like I gave up a little bit of control on the design . . . → Read More: Widget Wizard
March 8th, 2013 Recently I have gone through a hard time with my sister-in-law’s cancer. I’m so glad I have so much support from my friends here on the Cape. Many times I would hesitate to say what was wrong when asked. You know that feeling – everyone has their own bag of stuff and they don’t need . . . → Read More: Let Them In
March 5th, 2013 Dreams do that. They lie out there like the waves glinting on the water and move….ever so subtly through the back of my mind. No matter what I’m doing, I’m aware of those dreams, clicking like a wave on the shore, rippling underneath and giving energy and motion to my days.

He said, “I never had money, I’m just a boy . . . → Read More: How The Hell Did This Happen?
February 23rd, 2013 I brought a few projects with me to NY this weekend and planned to work on them while my husband was at work, but I had one of those days where I just couldn’t settle into either art or writing. “Go shopping. Go shopping.” kept niggling in the back of my mind. I can’t waste . . . → Read More: Out Of The Head
February 22nd, 2013 There is a a lot talk in the spirituality realm these days about being in the present. This is a hard concept for me. I mean, how hard is it to stay present, when, your, well…present? I pay attention to what I’m doing when I’m doing it, so I’m present, right? I thought so until . . . → Read More: The Here & Now
February 21st, 2013 Trying anything new is always trying. I'm deep into my illustrating project and I'm visiting places I've been before. The whole progression was a learning curve. First I designed my characters. Then I did a storyboard of each page. Those parts went fairly well. Next I had to find out the specifications and format I . . . → Read More: Trying IS Trying

My breath was knocked out of me at Jean Do's plight because I absolutely cannot imagine my brain being alive and not being able to do what I'm doing now – communicating my thoughts and words to you. But he wrote a whole book AFTER this happened to . . . → Read More: What’s My Hurry?
February 19th, 2013 Remember being seven and moving that circle of folded paper back and forth and lifting up the flap to see your fortune? Today I got a forward from a friend that transported me back to that era. Those of you who know me, know I don't forward. Everyone has enough stuff in their inbox that . . . → Read More: Remember Being Seven?
