Long Drive Home

I am 30 miles out of Key West. After playing 3 times at Open Mic last night, about 10 songs, I made a few stops, said some goodbyes and arrived here in Big Pine Key at my Uncle's house a little after midnight. It was actually what I hoped for, a heartfelt goodbye from people that will genuinely miss me after I go. So, I haven't been writing. It bothers me, I miss it. I've already posted to the effect that I shut down a little when I realized that I was leaving Key West. Back to the rain and the... Sign in to see full entry.

Shut The World Out

Sometimes we withdraw. Become less talkative, even silent. Shut ourselves off from the world around us. At least, I do. Especially at times when my life is changing. Looking for new direction, purpose, meaning. A phase of my life is ending, my course is changing. From one corner of the country, back to the other. It's hard to deal~ So, I haven't been writing. I haven't been doing much of anything really, just seeking escape. Through chess, through singing, through countless hours playing online... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Birthday To Me

I am 30 years old today. No longer can I say that I'm in my twenties. Oh well, good riddance. I've felt like a kid for long enough. Though I may slightly, slightly, slightly, feel the breath of my mortality a little bit closer, perhaps it is a good thing. Perhaps it is turning points, moments like these that can effect change. I know I feel that I need it in my life. Like it has had no real meaning. Of course, this last decade has held the most meaning I may find; procreation. My children. So,...

Goodbye Key West

Sorry that I haven't written in a few days. Been very busy and my life is changing. Have decided to move back to the rainy old Northwest. Not that I don't love it here in Key West, just that it's hard to make a living. If you scroll back through my blogs, you'll notice that I've been struggling to find gainful employ since January. I left a cafe that I worked at for a year and a half. Haven't been able to replace that job with anything that will pay the bills. So, have to go to where the bills... Sign in to see full entry.

3 Days?

Wow, I've never gone 3 days between posts. Guess I got caught up in all the stuff we were doing. Such an interesting dynamic between the 4 ladies that were here. 2 generations, 2 sets of 2 sisters. Let's just say, there was never a dull moment. I was sad this morning when they all left. And, worst of all, we never got a group photo. As a matter of fact, my camera is having some problems so I don't think I got any photos of them at all. Well, I'm moving into a new phase in my life. Working... Sign in to see full entry.
