I had a great chat with Dana Leipold of Third Act Wellness that inspired this blog- you can watch the replay here!

When you think of the holidays what comes to mind? A house full of wreaths, garlands, and sparkling…

I was just nose-to-nose with a hummingbird! (Does a hummingbird have a nose?) 

I was standing on the porch enjoying the sensations of an upcoming storm. All of a sudden, I heard a buzz next to my ear (no it…

I have had a long-standing hankering for a Hummingbird Cake. I'm not sure what inspired the craving. Maybe it was the abundance of hummingbirds who fly about in the trees outside my window. Yesterday, I finally gave myself the time…

This past week I discovered something amazing---Magic Lillies! 

In the spring, my friend V and I had been discussing flowers that might grow in my new landscape. She had mentioned these flowers that basically pop up out of nowhere right…

Yesterday an ole band geek buddy reached out to me and asked me how I help people stay motivated and creative. I didn't respond immediately because my answer was too convoluted for a DM. This is not the first time…

Last week I was talking with a neighbor- there's a whole lotta chatting going on in this little town:) She said, "there's never anything new here." That gave me a pause, because I love walking around and exploring. I always…

Happy Monday!

Well, I've got skin cancer!  What???? How did that happen?  It happens ya'll.  What more can I say.  Actually I can say a lot more so check out the video:)

Happy Monday! 

Currently my attention as come to this: 
Fundraising.  Can it be fun? 

After running 4 fundraising campaigns from 2015-18- 3 for STUCK and 1 for Smart Cookies with Jenni Tooley….wait…make that 2 for Smart Cookies…Let’s start over.  After…

Hi Sunshine!

It's Monday again!  Hope yours is going well.  If it's not, I have the antidote.

During our Creative Bubbles there is about an hour long period where we all turn off our zoom video and go off on…

Howdy my friend!

So I was thinking about death.  Wait a second, let me rephrase that.  I was thinking about the idea of cut flowers-- and not wanting them because they "are only going to die". Well, the dumpster flower…

Hello darlin!

I keep thinking that I'm going to get back to some heavy-duty musing, but my guidance keeps leading me toward the light, so here goes...

Yesterday I saw a post in my Buy Nothing Group.  Someone had dumped…

Happy A'Musing Monday to you!  Bruce is not amused.  Bruce is never amused...except when he is playing.  SMART CAT!

I've been following Bruce's journey at Fuzzy Texan Animal Rescue from when he was just a little tiny puff ball to…

It's Monday folks! You don't have to dread Mondays-- instead make them amusing!

This one is about Johnny Pop popsicles, good deeds, and flashing back to pre-techno life.

Do you have memories of ordering things out of Boy's Life magazine…

Last week I promised you  a cat in a hat.  

I attempted to deliver!

I was amused...I don't think that Sunny and Toast were though;)

Please feel free to share any of your favorite animal pics or vids!

Have a…

Today we're catching up on how the "do what I want, when I want, how I want" experiment is going. 

Wait, what?  Did you miss that one?  You can check it out here.  I decided to do an experiment where…

Okay!  This is our first A'Musing Monday that's all about being amused!  Good news!  I am easily amused-- I hope you are too:)

Have you ever heard of Popcorn on the Ear?  I hadn't- until someone in my local Buy…

It's an A'Musing Monday!

Is the phrase "I need to go to cabin in the mountains to write" or something like it familiar to you? Me too. The fact is that this is a beautiful excuse not to create. A…

Another musing on the Do.Have.Be. vs Be. Have. Do. paradox. This one is about building trust in others and feeling safer in the world by being trustworthy to myself.  If you are familiar with self-abandonment, you already get what I…

I’ve been reframing a lot of things lately- my perspective on money, perfection, and…Mondays!!!  

Rather than dread Mondays, I would like to use them as my muse!  Or to muse on things!  Or listen to muse-ic!  So that’s what I…

I’m so happy to be doing Sunday Funday Creative Bubbles twice a month now.  It’s amazing how just a little bit of me-time can get me so pumped up! 

Right now, carving out time for myself and focusing on things…

I can't believe it's been 25 years since I was in Bottle Rocket!

Yo can listen to more BTS about Bottle Rocket on my podcast:)

I'm a bit all over the place right now:). That's okay, that's actually where I thrive. Every time I try to fit myself in a box or keep myself in line I get a little depressed and my energy crashes…

This one's a quickie!

I'm consistently exploring what creativity is- I'm thinking that it is everything!

In this video he states: "The best way to be more creative is to learn about creativity". Well, there ya go!
