We are well into the second week of school,  things are going well. It is good to be back into routine especially after our summer.    After their boppa died (my father) and moving homes we welcome the change to get back into more normal things… I get to get back into my studio and … Continue reading →

Silence & Rememberance

This is my blog so I get to say this- through my tears & my tiredness, I have to say this. I have been quiet of late, doing little promotion, not talking myself up a whole lot and when I do it is a distraction… Something that I feel that I should do to avoid … Continue reading →

I am at a Huntington’s Disease therapeutics meeting in Palm Springs (my husband is the Scientist), we have turned it into a mini family vacation. The kids and I get to sit by the pool while my husband “has to” go to talks and meetings. Notice I put “has to” in parentheses, I think this is what he lives for. … Continue reading →
