Yesterday, after reading my last blog post, my BF asked me, "What will it take for you to be happy, Rachel? More money? A different job?" My response, "No, although more money would be really nice... (pause for jumbled thoughts)... I don't know what would make me happy." In that moment, my answer was true... … Continue reading What Will It Take?
I've never been white-water rafting, so I guess I don't really know what it's like, but if I had to imagine the experience based on the photos and videos I've seen of other people white-water rafting, I could claim a fairly reasonable comparison. "WTH are you talking about, Rachel? Comparision to what?" Well... to my … Continue reading It’s Like White-Water Rafting, I Think…
Ok, not really dead, but I might as well have been. Most days, I certainly felt dead. I took an unplanned, two year hiatus from the blogosphere. Not on purpose... it just kinda happened. Life happened... My last post here is dated "December 26, 2018." I re-read it this morning, and wow... it's still a … Continue reading Back From The… Dead?
Greetings, friends! I hope your holiday festivities were filled with joy and laughter in the company of those you love and cherish. {insert warm, mushy, "hallmark moment" sentiments here} (Hmm... that felt a little bit Scroogy... a little...)

I had one of those moments... You know, when the answer you've been searching for suddenly drops like a bomb into your awareness, and you're like, "I think I've known this the whole time." Then you realize that it's really true. You HAVE known it the whole time, and for one heartbeat everything fades away, … Continue reading I Get To Choose! (And So Do You)

Actually, my summer was super great... very low-key and laid back. Love, love, love! Anyway... In the spirit of "moving forward … Continue reading Those Good Vibrations {Shift It Real Good}
The end of summer vacation, that is!! Don't worry... I'm not about to hold up my ratty cardboard sign on the street corners and shout at passers-by about the end of the world and the eternal salvation of their souls... unless you think they'd tip well...? I could set out my cap and hope for … Continue reading “The End is Near!!”
Hello, my friends! I have been a busy little bee these past weeks. My creative juices have been flowing, and I was finally able to finish a couple of half-started projects. You know the feeling... it's like when you start cleaning the house - you crank the music way up, pull your hair back into … Continue reading Surfing Without Water
Hello, my friends! It has been a while since my last blog post. I will admit... nothing much has been going on around here. Well, nothing exciting or noteworthy. It has been a peaceful march of the absolutely mundane. Do you ever feel like that? Like the days are just passing without anything to mark … Continue reading The Smallest Space is the Largest Space of All
This past week felt a little like a rough ride. I was stuck inside my head again, spinning around the old issue of my self worth and feelings of uselessness. B-O-R-I-N-G After my regular “therapy” session, and an extra session doing some “mind reprograming,” (I don’t know how else to describe it), I felt much … Continue reading The Way of Things
