There is a stillness, maybe it’s created by that in between summer and winter. The school year has only just started but I feel like my kids have been in […]
The freeway hums in my body, But its only a memory. A fear filled memory of speed, guard rails, clear roads, fast, then sudden breaks. I do fine, day to day. I get things done. I have positive interactions with people in my community. I set up my 50/50 piece at the Sanchez Art Center […]
