2023 was a year of transition for me from many roles with which I had grown comfortable, most importantly, the role of wife, as my husband left to ride his motorcycle on the big highways of the sky and to mix sound for the heavenly chorus, following his life loves into the hereafter. I am left to figure out who I am without my partner of 40 years by my side – i.e., a work in progress. Being an Aries, that shouldn’t feel unusual. I am always on to the next thing. Nothing is ever static. And, oh, by the way, I could never have anticipated the way this feels – as if my core has been destroyed. Empty, I’ve heard, leaves room for filling.
I did some writing for the online news, The Cambridge Spy, and host about 6 months of a 10-minute segment weekly on WHCP, 91.7 radio, the Cambridge MD affiliate of NPR. For both, I bring local artists and art (broadly defined) to a wider audience. Since then, I’ve been working on my MFA in writing and finishing a memoir on grief.
My current passion is to make Cambridge, MD, known for being the center of art on the Eastern Shore of Maryland – Cambridge is a too well-kept secret.
I am no longer owned by a dog (but keep thinking about it), I love carbohydrates in any form, and I am blessed with the riches of close women friends. I believe anything is possible (most days) and. everything is connected (all days) and the ability of music to communicate across the ethers.
This is a place to talk about my journey by means of all the ways I express myself. I invite you to come along for the ride.
