A Super Hero Birthday Executed By My Super Hero Daughter

A Super Hero BDay Executed By My Super Hero Daughter


It's HOT and and it's difficult to get motivated in Phoenix. So much time spent trying to dodge the heat! Still things must get done! It finally rained here in our little suburb of Ahwatukee. The monsoon storms elude us for the most part here due to South Mountain. They usually skirt this area we have cloud cover with no action. It was nice to hear the downpour and rolling thunder in the distance! I took a two mile walk/ jog this morning. It was getting too hot… 91 degrees with a bunch of humidity so I came home at the 2mi. mark. 
The kids are off to school, I've done my grocery shopping and plan to spend some of my day gathering yard clippings, boxes and misc junk from around the yard for our bulk trash pickup next week. The city of Phoenix schedules these quarterly misc trash pickups. I always have things to put out…
This weekend was a mixed bag of crazy… my G-Son Aaron turned 5. My daughter had a wonderful party for him with lots of his neighborhood friends and cousins. My Amelia included. 


Plenty of activity and noise for one evening… Amelia and Kadee. Both are my G-Daughters.

It was nice to celebrate with them though! A good time was had by all as my daughter always does a great job with party planning and kid activities! She had a decoupage craft for them all to do that was the party favor. She bought big letters with the first letter in each child's name in attendance. They cut out super hero wrapping paper and decoupaged the paper onto the letter! Here is Amelia's finished project.
I thought this was a very special party favor! They have the memory of making this craft project as well! 
My daughter also made a replica of a super hero shield out of berries lol…it was so pretty!

My gosh she put effort and work into this party! I wonder where she gets it from, lol… The cake was adorable, a Costco cake. Delicious as well with plenty to feed her large crowd and a lot, left over! 

A great success! Way to go Brittany Paige! She is amazing!
A "Super Hero" Birthday executed by my Super Hero daughter! Britt works full time as the head secretary for a charter high school and, has a part time job as well. She is attending W.P. Carey Business school online at ASU! She will be graduating next year with a Bachelors Degree. Her kids are all doing well in school, I couldn't be more proud of this gal!

I have work to do so just #signme so I can get to it already… lol! 
No kidding, I want so very much to accomplish something with my music! I would love to contribute to music history!

Thanks for sharing and supporting my musical journey. I wish to help change the music industry stereo type! Age has no bearing on talent and appeal. Music, is subjective and thank goodness, we have plenty of music to choose from! Even suburban housewives can become rock Stars… Let's show em!!!!

An A For Effort And A Little Silent Lucidity

An A For Effort And A Little Silent Lucidity


This was taken during our Sunday brunch last Sunday. As you can see, Amelia was quite taken with her A pancake. We enjoyed making this huge breakfast on the new grill. We would use the grill more if It weren't blazing hot here in the summer…

Plenty is always evolving to do. Today, I find myself deep cleaning. It's funny the chores you can put off because the weather is too hot! I think we all kind of shut down in the stifling heat here! I have been generating music all week! Now that the kids are in school, I'm back at this!

This is how I started off my week, with some Silent Lucidity! I actually only had Tuesday and Wednesday to work on these. My husband is using up vacation time as it is nearly the new fiscal year and his vacation time doesn't roll over into the next year. Having to prepare meals, clean up after meals, do all of the chores, manage the kids and my first graders homework, showers, laundry, the cat litter box… lol you get the idea. It's a wonder I could sneak theses in on my channel!

Try Try Again

Try Try Again

Try as I might, I haven't got a clue how to promote myself. Over the weekend, I put together a couple of short promo videos and a SoundCloud ad for my channels. Here, they are:
In my SoundCloud Promo, I used one of my original tracks in the background. I'll be damned if the one comment that I received was a person saying, "great ad but you could be more successful if you used my music in your ad." Lol, now that takes the cake!!! All of this promo I have done did get people looking at my YouTube channel. Lots of views but no new subscribers… All of this is becoming more clear and evident. The harder I try, the worse I feel about where I stand which clearly is, outside… I suppose I'll have to let go of the dream as surely nothing but frustration will come from trying so hard wanting so much with little gain. I will not however ever give up on the "Magic" and wonder I feel in actual playing. Sometimes the room just feels magical with the music. A spiritual experience for sure! That, is what I'm really hooked on. That special time when nobody is home. It's just me with my keyboard and I can sit for hours and give it all I've got… that, is the hook. The spiritual connection and the sense of self accomplishment…it's like a feel good drug! So, I'll still create, execute and post my musical endeavors. I wish I was better able to connect with others and gain a following along my journey. It would be my ultimate dream to be able to impart my well received music in music history. That surely is the goal and desire of any musician! When you have accomplished this, you have truly fulfilled your creative existence. I can only imagine what that would feel like! What would that be?! To be able to repeat that multiple time must be nirvana!
Meanwhile, life goes on. Elementary school started here on Thursday. Amelia started first grade. Zoe starts her sophomore year tomorrow. I watched a few of my G-kids everyday for about 3 weeks while my daughter started a new job…I baked cookies, fulfilled my Gram duties, school supply shopping, kept the household running, made plenty of nice meals. You get the point, I'm busy like the rest of you…Still, deep down, wishing and hoping for a personal victory to call my own. Wishing and hoping that the Rock God's would smile upon me!


The kids put a doll crown on this sweet and patient creature… she put up with a lot of extra attention this past month bless her doggy diva heart! Coco Rose is a treasure!

Clarice wore her favorite toy on her head as well… More crazy kid antics… 
I can't resist, I too am guilty from time to time of showering too much attention on the adorable creatures that reside here. Love em!
Have a great Sunday, fun day, hope
