Sharing some humor, a bit of writing and way too much information

Road to Oprah

Momma Love

I am writing this for Auds’ beautiful daughter, Meg.   For some reason, I never expected to have children, despite Kathy King’s mumbo-jumbo “yarn” trick sophomore year that told me I’d be a mother to 16. I didn’t think I’d be married, either. I will admit that for awhile there, I DID wonder if maybe…Continue Reading

PROMPTuesday #134: Bawdy Holiday Prose, Part Trois

Hi! It’s that special time of year! A happy month of merrymaking and holiday cheer. Of friends, family, and fruitcakes. Of gifts from the heart and trees from the forest. Of chestnuts and golden balls.   Which brings me to…   The third installment of Bawdy Holiday Prose.   As I wrote back in December…Continue Reading

Mediate, Part 1

Next on my “Road to Oprah” list is “meditate.”   I’ve dabbled in this before, and I can say I felt some benefit. But I didn’t stick to it. Surprised? (Have you read this website?)   So my plan is to start with 5 minutes of meditation a day. For the first week, I will…Continue Reading

Learning To Forgive, Update #2

AGENDA ITEM #1: FINALLY FORGIVE OLD SLIGHTS The set-up: I think I’ve moved on. But when the person’s name comes up or I’m reminded of how I’ve been hurt by anyone, in any way, at anytime, my anger flashes. What’s that Oprah says? Not forgiving someone is like taking poison and expecting the other person…Continue Reading

Being A Better Person: Learning to Forgive Update #1

This is part 1.   AGENDA ITEM #1: FORGIVE (UPDATE)   Well, this first agenda item is going OK.   I spent a lot of my Road to Oprah time working primarily on forgiveness for my mom. I think that one’s the jim dandy and if I can forgive that, then the rest will come…Continue Reading

Funnest birthday/holiday celebration yesterday! Vi Funnest birthday/holiday celebration yesterday! Visited Del Mar’s shops, businesses, restaurants and bars for the Village’s annual Taste and Sip with closest pals. Highlights: learning about Mezcal at @enfuegocantina, sampling new @lalospirits tequila, catching the sunset at @monarchdelmar, amazing ceviche at @coya_peruvian_secret, and the most delicious gluten-free birthday cake from @shanjo! Recommend this for next year - was the best best most good time.
