Feeling Helpless

I’ve been meaning to post but I’ve had so much going on that I haven’t managed to get back into the swing of it.  I really shouldn’t take the time with my final paper to write.  But I’ve been sad this week over my sick kitty. I’ve had to watch her crouched with a look…

Resurrection!

I am celebrating that my blog is back!  Okay, the content was always there, but the layout and design functions stopped working when I upgraded WordPress about a month ago.  Just plain text on a white page. But no more!  A WordPress support forums moderator came to my rescue and I’m back in business.  I’m…

Being Transformed by the Journey

Sharing my health challenges and my explorations of healing and wellness here has been very meaningful for me. I haven’t posted regularly here for a while because of the inner turmoil I have had over the direction I should go for my career. This is an issue for many but especially for those whose health…

Crazier than Fiction: Karma?

After extricating myself from living with the woman who turned out to be addicted to crystal meth, I transitioned into what I thought was a better living arrangement. I moved into the home of a sweet old lady that lived closer to the temp job I had in Costa Mesa. It was a short bike…

Crazier than Fiction: Beach Life

We left off with me driving around Southern California in a daze. I remember at one point making a tearful phone call to my mother from a public phone in a mall. I spent the weekend driving around looking for a place to live. I was determined to be out of the way when my…

Crazier than Fiction: The Series

The story of my move from Washington, DC to Southern California and the first few years here begs to be told after my college roommate story. You might think that a person could only have one unbelievable roommate story to tell. You would be wrong. First of all, the move to California was something I…

Crazier Than Fiction

In the process of compiling my application for graduate school, I had to touch on some of the times life didn’t go so smoothly for me. Perhaps one shouldn’t wait until 41 to apply to graduate school because too much can happen that you then find yourself trying to explain. I was trying to write…

Hiding from Myself

Perhaps when writing is the way that you examine your life, the avoidance of this practice is in reality an avoidance oneself. I have been struggling for a long time with the idea that it may be time for me to look for another job. It has been difficult for me to come to grips…

Mom on 86th Birthday

Bethyl’s Blog

Guest Blogger: My mother has started “blogging” via email and this is her post for yesterday which seems an interesting follow-up to my “Hands” post: Today is my mother’s birthday. Alice Ardena Erickson Davis. December 13, 1887 – August 3, 1980. She was 40 when I, her fifth and last child, was born in 1927….

Crashed and Burned

In case you hadn’t noticed, I didn’t quite make it through the whole NaBloPoMo. That’s OK, I had a good time giving it a try. Luckily I ended on the appropriate shopping themed post. LOL I actually had a topic all ready to go for the next post, but life just got especially crazy. I…

Saying good-bye to another difficult year and look Saying good-bye to another difficult year and looking ahead to a fresh new one, I've had this quote from Mary Oliver's poem "Evidence" on my mind: 
"Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable." ✨
It's a hopeful reminder of surprising joys ahead that we might not be able to imagine today. 
I also love these words from the same poem: 
"I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. Also in singing, especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed."
Wishing you all much kindness, mischief and singing your heart out in 2022! ❤️ 😂 🎉
