Hey, stranger!

Ah, yes. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting. This is something all too familiar for us all, whether we are 2 years old strapped into a car seat, or 34 years old,  staring at the circling rainbow spiral of death spin round and round on our computer screen.... we all must wait. What are we waiting for? In most cases, we are waiting for "something" to happen: waiting for the light to turn green, waiting for the child to stop screaming, waiting for the server to bring your food, waiting for the guy to return your call....

My "something"  has really been more of a "someday". I hear myself say it all the time: "Someday I'll do ______ " (insert, 'if', 'when', 'but', 'maybe' and all other ninny-poo words). Well, here I am owning up to my "someday". For me it's, "Someday I'll make my music happen, and use my creative energy to do really fun stuff!!". So I wait for someday to happen, realizing that it will always be at arms length. I'll never catch up to it. It's not contained in a capsule that will magically turn into a dinosaur shaped sponge when I add water. After all, it's my someday - not yours. It will always be a few steps ahead of me. Unless I make it happen!

I invite you to follow me on this journey, with the caveat that I have no idea where it will go. I intend to start with writing, some recordings of my music and see what happens. I did not intend to be totally transparent with this project, but I realized that doing so would put a little fire under my toosh and keep me motivated. So THANK YOU for reading! Here's to making magic, laughter, music, and community!

  1. It takes super strength and courage to own up to with} this, especially in case you have lost some huge cash} 온라인카지노 and strained or damaged relationships along the best way|the way in which}. Many others have been in your shoes and have been in a position to} break the behavior and rebuild their lives. Many older gamblers are reluctant to succeed in out to their adult children in the event that they}'ve gambled away their inheritance, nevertheless it's by no means too late to make adjustments for the higher. You could gamble till you have spent your final greenback, and then move on to cash you don't have—money to pay bills, bank cards, or things in your children. You could really feel pushed to borrow, promote, or even steal things for playing cash.
