Month of Musicianship and the role of Music in my Life.

The holiday season has begun, and the Starbucks I am at is playing Cheese Cake by Dexter Gordon.   My relationship with music goes back to the Spring of 2005. My Father was a rude and crass man; he refused to let me join band. To the point, where he tore up my letter of “acceptance”Continue reading “Month of Musicianship and the role of Music in my Life.”

Tiny things for a tiny Eco-friendly home

Personally, I despise it when people don’t think about the harm we’ve traced on the environment as humans.

Wednesday’s Writings: Tilt Feature!

Day two of National Novel Writing Month, and I’ve had a iced green tea, iced caramel macchiato, a iced mocha at home, and 16 cups of water over the past two days.

Counting down to NaNoWriMo

What is the drawl to this month? Why am I participating again? What about the “What Now?” months. All these questions and more are getting tackled on a Monday afternoon.   I’ve known about National  Novel Writing Month since 2013. I never really participated until November 2015, and it took some motivation to do so.Continue reading “Counting down to NaNoWriMo”

Fall is here, which means time to prepare for the Spring!

This is my third year to garden, and I still haven’t learned everything yet. I didn’t officially start until the Spring of 2013, and this is the first year where I am actually doing Spring preparation during the Fall and Winter. That’s because I’ve usually lived in a apartment, where all I’ve had were pottedContinue reading “Fall is here, which means time to prepare for the Spring!”
