If you missed the last post Part Two: Crossing the Threshold click here before reading on.  I left off at the end of 2020 – I call it the Year of Letting Go. We all let so much go in 2020…how we lived our daily lives (in a nutshell), and for some, the loss of a loved one due to covid. It

If you haven’t read Part One: my will vs. God’s will click here before reading on. When I left off, it was September 1, 2020 and mom and I were just heading out across the Nevada desert, caravan style – me driving her camper van, her following behind in my car.

I’m going to write one part at a time of the two year cocoon unfolding, each writing building on the one prior.  When I left writing in May of 2020, we were two months into the pandemic. I had been camping with my mom in the mountains of Santa Barbara, CA for five months in search

I’ve been cocooning, drawing into my internal landscape, unsure of where I’m heading or what’s next. I still don’t. But what I do know is that I miss connecting with you.

As I watched the snow fall yesterday after a 65 degree day on Friday, I’m reminded of the dramatic Montana weather.
