Thoughts on life, love, and heroes. I Had A Plan. I’m usually pretty regular on my blogs. However, I recently had an unexpected challenge when my computer decided to take the month of May off. Being decidedly despondent, I needed help. I asked my techie hubby to help me get it sent off for repairs. Now I’m back online. My blog plan has to be updated and reconfigured, but I’m okay with that now that I have my computer back. What I love about this time of waiting we all have to go through occasionally is t...

Intersectional feminism, racial justice, and spirituality. A Tribute to Rob Meurer. A friend, Rob Meurer, died last week in a tragic accident.
