Spring 2022 - Taking a nap on a Sunday afternoon. The late afternoon sun is shining and laying a blanket of light across my throw, How did I get here? What a long, crooked and beautiful trip it’s been. In spite of the struggle, I find myself in a place I have never really known. After 15 months of a long-distance relationship we decided to give this a go, and that I would move to Toronto…and so I did. There has been a lot of back and forth, staying connected to my family in Seattle, my friends from everywhere and selling many of my “big” possessions; avion trailer and vintage mercedes wagon and consolidating the rest in 23 bins. IN short a lot of letting go of things and walking into a life of partnership, creativity, personal growth, facing the unknown, replacing a worn out knee and facing another one, essentially redefining me…. whew! So laying in the afternoon sun and resting isn’t such a far-fetched idea. It is in fact the perfect thing to be doing on this lazy Sunday.

Love and loss, finding myself through a lot of heartache, joy and happiness. Me resourcefully searching for love, freedom, expression, belonging and comfort. How did I get here? I ask this question all the time….
