Food I love food. I love eating food. I love looking at good food. I love everything fresh and healthy. But I don’t like the preparation and clean up phase. It seems like such a waste of time. ‘Time’ being my most precious commodity these days. I’ve gone through phases in my life where I […]

Yesterday was the winter solstice. I consider this to be the first day of the new year. I think the calendar makers screwed up. They were most assuredly men. Everything had to come out mathematically correct. The days start getting longer today. Everything changes. Today should be January 1st. Wouldn’t that be nice if we […]

Hey Christmas! Yes, You. I’m just not that into you anymore. So why are you making me feel so guilty? Why are you making me feel so ….. anti-American? Why do you look at me like I’m a failure as a woman? You think I’m lazy? Why are you making me feel like I’m not […]

I received that notice in September. The deadline is tomorrow. Do […]

Literally, the weight of the world was on my neck, my shoulders, hips, knees and feet. I know you know what that feels like. It hurts. It hurts physically and spiritually. I had to […]

My Muse
By
I have a muse. I think everybody does. According to my online dictionary a muse is a noun and a verb. My “Muse” is my sister goddess who presides over my art. She visits me while I’m “musing”. I thought I might share some of my process with you. I don’t really have a process, […]

Thursday Morning. We got a better start at daylight. I only had one cup of coffee in bed. Then saddled up and long trotted about 2 miles through our place and across our neighbors pasture that we lease. I met up with our cowboys for the day (Day Riders). They are also our good friends. […]

Big Circle.

This morning I was supposed to ride the north end of this pasture where we turned the cattle into yesterday. Remember yesterday? We started at the very end of the horizon of these big ugly power lines. This is a pasture that we lease. Maybe we would feel different if we got the money […]
