My oldest daughter, Aimee asked me to participate in an assignment she was working on for one of her university courses on “aging.” Check out her interview with me, especially if you are growing older, which is all of us. Take a moment to read and take a break from all the political discourse.

LOVE it!

I meant to post this after the win last night 😜. Also happens to be one of my favourite DM songs. IMO, quite underrated.

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

Remember when America had friends?

Like a month ago?

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

From 'Red Lips and Rebellion' by Celeste Vanya: "During World War II, red lipstick became the ultimate boss move. It was a symbol of resistance and victory over Nazism. Allied governments encouraged women to wear red lipstick to show defiance against oppression."

True Story 1971 - Poem Fragment:
The phone rang and I knew it was you
Is this what it’s come down to
A phone call, a room with a trap door
You said you thought of me tonight when
The Carole King song came on the radio.

It’s too late baby.

I used to love that song
But you ruined it for me.

The phone rang and I knew it was you
Is this what it’s come down to
A phone call, a room with a trap door
You said you thought of me tonight when
The Carole King song came on the radio.

It’s too late baby.

I used to love that song
But you ruined it for me.

Find Your Tribe. - Girl Warrior Productions Find your tribe Girl Warrior. Your pack. Your posse. Your band of sisters and brothers.  Surround yourself with people you trust, respect and enjoy.  You don’t have to always agree. Or see eye-to-eye....

Girl Warrior these are the ones who will be there for you. With you. By your side. Shoulder-to-shoulder. The ones who have your back no matter what. And will hold your hair back while you barf.

Me either. Total insanity.

On Making America Great Again. - Girl Warrior Productions I grew up in a border town, which meant that in a mere half-hour we could be in Minnesota. Taking a drive to “The States” was something we did on a regular basis. The Old Man, Ma and I would take many...

I wrote this piece back in 2016 just before the US election. The last time I was in the US was in September 2019 when I went to the Bumbershoot Music Festival in Seattle with my daughters and their friends. It was glorious. I haven't been in the US since. Enough said.

Open Your Heart Wide to Love. - Girl Warrior Productions Open your heart wide and let in the love Girl Warrior. Go where your heart leads you. And don’t run from its softness. Let it be tender. Kind. Compassionate. Gentle. Extend your hand to another and gr...

Learn to recognize love when it comes your way. It doesn’t always come gift-wrapped. Covered in bows or hearts and flowers. It doesn’t always shout, get in your face, take your breath away or make your heart flutter. Often it whispers, is unobtrusive, low-key and sneaks up on you. For love is love.

Take it easy for a moment and watch this relaxing video of this beautiful aerialist. Peace out. ✌️

Write the stories
You like to read.
Make the music
You like to listen to.
Paint what you see
With your heart not your eyes.
Take pictures of the things
That delight you.
Love everything creative
Including yourself.
