My Latest Reckon Review Column and Becoming a Lady

So my ukulele crazy is up at Reckon Review’s Wind & Root: Flexing My Creative Muscles: Playing the Ukulele, UAS, & 30-Day Challenges - if you haven’t had the chance to read it, I would love it if you did! Talking about my history with the ukulele from my childhood to now was really interesting for me - and also re-examining my need to do these daily videos for the challenges was good for me too. I really need more self-care. I don’t want to come to hate playing the ukulele.

Also, as a way to commemorate my 25th wedding anniversary (on Halloween), my husband and I decided to become a Lord and Lady by donating money to a place in Scotland through Established Titles! It was cheaper than a night out because we got a discount and they are doing a Black Friday sale (a little early but I ain’t mad). Since then, it’s been non-stop jokes of m’lord (I’m partial to m’laird) and m’lady - well worth it.

Tomorrow is a day filled with podcast interview, workshop and questions from a book club via zoom. Today will be filled with replaying Red Dead Redemption 2.

As always, sending light and love and lots of creativity and acceptances from this newly minted Lady!
