Wait where am I again
Physically I am here in “Coronaville” fighting this nemesis called COVID19, mentally I am lying on a beach drinking my 6th mojito while perfecting this Asian glow, emotionally I’m pretty sure that is Cessna giving me a massage … oh wait it’s Bora Bora 🏝 ❤️

This is how it ends
I have a head full of white hair and split ends. A face covered with tiny bumps and dark circles that match my dark brown eyes, and cheeks the size of Texas. Today I threw some eye liner on, put some earrings on these large ear lobes and curled my hair for the first time…

The Rhythm of rainy days and fine things
Can I just start off by saying we need to go back to 2018 when the year started off great, the summer was magical and I was modeling furniture for my sister. Something about this picture you didn’t know… That was my first raincoat (so lame considering my age, I know) but I have never…

I didn’t get to celebrate Nurses’ Week. I don’t think many of us nurses did, I know us critical care nurses barely knew it was Nurses’ Week. I really don’t know what was going on outside the walls of my world this week. It was brutal. This week was affirmation of how amazing my team…

We all saw her standing
I’m not sure if the birds chirped that morning. I was sleeping. Who heard them? Who knows their song? They carried it till evening. And through the night a whisper was heard, when it was, there she stood. There was no where to sit. The room was loud. She was the only one speaking. Her…

Her hallelujah is tired
Unfortunately a structural home is not always a safe place. To some, home is where they are abused, to others, home is where they are trafficked, and to some it where they are the most lonely. When I found out this “shelter in place” was extended, I cried. It’s been over 2 months since I’ve…
