Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
Today was a tough day listening to the Epstein survivors speak about their trauma from the past when they were minors and/or college aged young women. One after the other spoke about what took place that robbed them of their right to be a functioning woman let alone teenager. One after the other spoke about... Continue Reading →
The news cycle is so full of horrible news in America that even political pundits and historians can hardly keep up. The distractions from tRump are deliberate although not calculated in any rhyme or reason. It’s just about revenge in a mean spirited manner. So, what do we do about it? Protesting is a good...

I’m baaack! I must admit that the recovery from my January surgery was much more difficult than I had anticipated. Tired, nauseous, tired but I keep reminding myself that my abdominal organs are getting adjusted to how they are supposed to work. During recovery, my days were hectic with real estate, my sister here to... Continue Reading →
What can I say? 2023 was a great year and yet full of surprises mixed with oddities. I don’t want to call those oddities disappointments because they were simply the speed bumps of life.

I have had a writer’s block this past year. Maybe it’s the aftermath of the pandemic now that we have had to learn to live with covid. Maybe I’m just mad at the people in America that refused to take a deadly virus serious. But ‘Merica, folks. I am not understanding why Americans don’t question... Continue Reading →
This Tuesday night on #DeadlineWhitehouse, Eddie S. Glaude, Jr. was a guest. His answer about the topic of the rhetoric of violent threats struck me. I am still thinking about it. “Nicole, we’re not gonna ever change. Until we hold the people we love accountable….People who know better, eat dinner with folk, they love them... Continue Reading →
Mother Nature is playing tricks this week with 100% chance of precipitation all this week here in Boise, Idaho. Which means no hikes since the trails will be wet and fragile. I am completely okay with that. I can get things done that I have been putting off. Like cleaning my house. Starting a new... Continue Reading →
