  • 20 Years….Poof

    It’ s May 29, 2025, and I find myself trying to plan an outfit for an event I am struggling to wrap my head around. It’s hard. It’s emotional. It’s scary. It makes me grateful. I am humbled. I know… Continue reading

  • Remind Me, It’s Christmas…

    I have been yelled at twice today. I am overly cautious about the way I talk to vendors and customers on the phone. My gravelly voice is often misinterpreted for being “short or cross” so I intentionally try to corral… Continue reading
