Throwback Thursday ~ silly mirror pics with the sis
It was a random night in 2006, my sister grabbed me and said, "let's take a bunch of pictures of ourselves in the mirror..."
Throwback Thursday ~ I used to be a ballerina
I used to be a ballerina. My final recital was in 12th grade when I was 17-years old. These are videos from the dress rehearsal (not the actual recital.) I miss it a lot! This first video is on pointe ballet slippers. The song is A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. (I start on the [...]
Throwback Thursday ~ Fasha, the cat
Fasha was my father's cat who he adopted in the 80s and she lived to be about 21 years old before being put down in 2002. I loved her so much! I was always "hanging out" with her as a child. I would dress her up like a doll (like in the photo) and she [...]
Throwback Thursday ~ reflecting upon old posts
I write a lot -- especially as of lately. I have published hundreds of posts on here. I feel shy about a lot of them and some even make me cringe. But that is what art is all about, yes? --Putting your raw self out there, vulnerable to criticism. My ego doesn't always like it: [...]

There's radio, CDs, iTunes, and many different streaming services. The internet makes it easier to explore all music, including underground and indie that would otherwise [...]
Throwback Thursday ~ Melanie Safka
One of the best musicians from the late 60s/70s was the underrated Melanie Safka. She performed at the legendary Woodstock 1969 and was the first female artist to have three singles reach the Top 40. Melanie Safka covered some classic artists of her time such as Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones, putting in her [...]
Throwback Thursday ~ my first cat
I was so upset when my dad's cat, Fashia, passed away. Then about a year or two later, for my ninth birthday, I adopted a kitten and named him Buttermilk -- his fur being the color of pancakes. It was the best birthday present ever. He was so sweet, very active, playful, skittish, and extremely [...]
