The Coffee Chronicles
This is really where it all began. In 2001, I created a website and started writing columns. It was Pretty and me in an apartment in Maryland, searching for purpose and mercy. Well, I was searching for purpose and mercy; Pretty was searching for new napping places. Pretty now naps beyond the rainbow bridge. Me? Still searching. But I am getting closer to purpose, not so much the mercy.
As I relearn how to adjust my website, I am refocusing away from “An Odyssey Through Covid America.” It is still all here. You can find a link to all of the original material above.
Now? On to next.
I began a podcast, “Let’s Get Naked About Mental Health” where I dive deep into my mental health journey. I try to be an authentic voice to help people understand themselves and loved ones who struggle.
The next book is in progress as well.
I have gotten more into videos and am using social media to have fun and entertain. People find my misadevtures as fun as my adventures. I do as well.
You are welcome to follow along.

Updating, Not Spam!
Hello Everybody! If you have chosen to follow my page, thank you! If you have been flooded with posts recently, my apologies! I have been in the process of updating my website. Some parts just work better as posts as opposed to pages, which you receive automatically....
Murphy Got Me Again
This is difficult for me. Very difficult. I can offer help anywhere and anytime, even when I don't have it. Asking? It makes me...ugh. I'm in a bad spot. My spirits are up, but my butt and bank account are down and I am stranded in Tijuana with a fractured ankle. The...
Episode 6: Triggers, Stuttering and Coping
Episode 6 is a wrap! I think I am finally starting to get the hang of this? I remembered to plug everything in and managed it in one take. Uploading has gotten easier as well as I get my system down. There is even an "All Episodes" Page and "Support the Podcast" Page....
Laugh or Cringe?
Hello Everybody. I know there are some who do not follow or have Facebook so I just thought I'd update you about a few new things on the website. First: the Video Companion to my book is finished! --unless my OCD kicks in and I start thinking about stringing...
Episode 5: The Mental Health Triangle
Five episodes in the books. I think I'm getting better at this: I didn't like I was going to puke when I hit the "record" button. I was able to settle in quickly and not be so monotone. But it is published, uploaded and now I am trying to remember the other places I...
Misadventures in Tijuana
If you don't have Facebook, you're missing out. I know some people who get these updates, though, aren't on Facebook so I thought I would add a few things. I've been hard at work on my book and podcast and they lend themselves to darker posts. On Facebook and...
Episode 4: Deeper into Aloha
Deeper into Aloha Episode Four is a wrap! I think I am getting better at this? The only technical difficulty I ran into this time was...I forgot to plug in my headphones so had to wait an hour before for them to recharge before I could record. I even managed to update...
Podcast!
Now had did this happen? Instead of a normal blog post, I'm seeing a podcast post thingie. Me vs my website: still a work in progress. I'm STILL searching for a title for the podcast. "Let's Get Named About Mental Health!" ???? But this is a bonus episode: A Lie of...
Episode 2: Into the Deep
Episode 2 is done, published and uploaded. You can listen to it from the webpage directly, linked below, and I have no idea if you can download it from your favorite app--I'm working on it. The battle between me and technology is almost on par with me vs Murphy...
Episode 1: Diving In
It's finished! Kind of. Okay, not quite, but I am getting there. I started my podcast and the first episode is a wrap. It is being hosted on Podbean and I still haven't figured out how to share the direct feed. You can listen to it on their server. Tomorrow, I will...
Into the Darkness
Yes, I have been procrastinating. You would too. A couple years ago, a friend, a psychiatrist, told me to step away from this project. But it is time. I had a funny conversation with another friend a few years back. For some reason, she always imagined me as the...
“A Visual Companion” Completed
Yes, yes, yes: I was spacing out these posts section by section. But then the project got away from me. And it was a project! Maybe I went a little overboard? But I wanted to wrap this up to move on to the next projects. I am working on the third (and possibly final)...
