Wow. It has been a MINUTE since I’ve been here. Life got busy… travel, birthdays, conferences…and… I officially foster failed my 11th foster dog. Symphony here is now in her forever home, and we are both loving it! How are all of you?? image
Merry happy Christmas everyone! Whether you celebrate or not, I hope you have a beautiful day, and that you eat something delicious! Here’s a throwback video of one of my fav holiday songs as my gift to you. ☺️😎🌲🎁 I’m so grateful to have figured out this beautifully weird little world with you all. Enjoy! #songstr #holidaysong #christmas #singer #musicstr #mostwonderfultime
Time for a little photo dump! The run of shows with my friend Lauren was a success!!! We met lots of cool people, had easy travel, had the cutest little road dog with us, and I got to see South Carolina for the first time. That means I’ve been to 45 out of the 50 states, AND Puerto Rico. Crazy! Anyone been to all 50? The only downside from the weekend is that I came down with a nasty little bug. But I’ll be back to normal before you know it. (Although, I could definitely use a good soup @npub1n0pd...pfp6 😂😂). Anyway, good times were had!

Ahhh finally a little cynicism… I once rented and EV not realizing what I was doing. It was half charged when I got it, and quickly died on my one hour drive from Detroit to Toledo. Because of course it takes more energy if you plug in your phone to use the map, and if you drive above 55mph. Then I had to scramble to figure out how/where to charge the damn thing. Thought plugging it in at the hotel for 24 hours would be enough. It was absolutely not. Then had one of the most stressful drives back to the airport (which I barely made it to). Never again, I said. I will never rent an EV again. These are NOT the right cars for long road trips by any stretch of the imagination. Why am I telling you this? Because it turns out we had to rent a car at the last minute for this weekend’s run of shows. Found a great deal on what I thought was an SUV, and guess what kind of car it was? A freaking EV. Nope. Had to pay $30 more for a gas car, but if Michigan and Ohio aren’t well equipped to handle EVs, then the southern US DEFINITELY ain’t! I’m a fan of a good hybrid. But I do not like straight up EVs. I’ve road tripped way too much in my life to have to hunt down a charging station and spend an hour there charging (plus the money) for maybe 150 miles of drive time. End rant.
I’ve only been active on Nostr for a week, and already I’m feeling better about this space than any other space online. Will I have cynical shit to say? Of course. But I’m in my Nostr honeymoon phase. Nothing but hearts and stars for now. 😜😎💜✨
I just want to say thank you to everyone who followed and zapped me yesterday and today. I’m so grateful to have found you all here. As a token of my gratitude, here’s a clip of one of the songs I wrote with a friend of mine who passed away last year. It’s called “Not Where I Belong.” #singersongwriter #unreleasedsongs #soul #americana
