I appreciate WordPress
February 22, 2017

My desire to be a writer began in December 2009. I had a great encouragement by a good friend who had been published. She led me step by step here to WordPress and showed me how to begin a blog. Thank you CJ.
I did a few, very few blogs since then, but WordPress has remained steady and sure and here – a wonderful constant. Something that I could count on.
In 2015 I finished my book and in the process of sending out queries to agents.
On WordPress I am also finding a wonderful community of fellow self healers, fun seekers, dog lovers, and self-aware great writers.
So, WordPress, please continue being my beacon, anchor and thank you for sticking around all these years!
Movie – A Dog’s Purpose – Really???
February 18, 2017

Just saw the movie…and I am emotionally wrecked (if you haven’t seen it, then this post will be a spoiler alert). I have had many dogs in my lifetime and now I am reliving the death of each of them….ugh, really? Do we really need to relive those memories AND the fact that we lose the ones we have? I am grateful for each of them, Little-bit, Buddy, Rocky, La Rue, Bella and now Faline is in my life….each one had their own personalities and were companions in different ways. Truly grateful.
The final message is true – be in the moment, cause that is how dogs exist. But the premise that dogs reincarnate and find their favorite owner….hmmm. Too hard to fathom, but it made a nice story.
I have should have known that I would be wrecked seeing a dog movie because to this day I still ball when I see the movie Benji…sob like the child I was when I first saw it.
