jeeeeez...

it's only been 4 months...i knew that would happen...every monday "blog" comes up in my reminders...i'd like to blame anyone and everyone but it's me that isn't blogging...i'm not apologizing...i believe in phases...i must not blog, so i can blog...anyhoo...i'm back...whatever that means...we'll see how long this lasts...

tonight is the first of 6 teleclasses...studying to be a lifecoach...i do a lot of it at my job, so i figure i should sharpen my skills a bit...it's so intense...i'm uber nervous...but it will be wonderful...

i started a jewelry class...i'm fascinated with precious metal clay...you form it into whatever you want, let it dry, leslie fires it in her kiln, and BOOM! i've got a piece of jewelry! it's downright nuts...tell the truth, it's been a blast to reconnect with my creativity...it's more natural than i thought...

i leave next friday for the bike across kansas....475 miles over northern kansas...you should come...all the cool kids are doing it...it's everything i want in a vacation...a tan, lots of food, and i come away losing weight...what more could a girl ask for?

the bad side of the bike across kansas is that i'm going to miss a very important event...pat-a-palooza...a benefit for a great man, pat audley at the artichoke...i'm trying to put in some legwork ahead of time, organizing and such, so that not being there will sting less...i'll never forget the feeling in my knees when he asked me to play at the artichoke...it was my first gig as a headliner...too cool for words...

well, this was fun...i hope to continue...
