In honor of my birthday this month, you should please excuse the pun! Yep, it’s time to celebrate. I’m putting away the tax prep work and taking a break from teaching. No performances are booked in the near future. I’m through planning photo shoots & studio time, and happy leaving my You Tube Channel as is, for now. It’s time for a little birthday vacation. My Darling Sweetheart, my beautiful “Labra-dobie-dor”, and I are heading for a cabin in a densely wooded area up by the Russian River. There will be nothing better to do than stare at the fire, relax in the hot tub, put a jigsaw together and eat Shelly’s practically world famous lasagna casserole and some See’s butterscotch squares. It’s a tough life, but somebody’s got to keep the vacation rental industry alive and well.

Wishing You Love
ByCynthiaWas it just good luck? There she was “across a crowded room” as the romantic story always goes. She was absolutely aglow with the fun she was having with her friends.

Time
ByCynthiaWhoa! 2018. Seriously? Sometimes it feels like I’m being pole vaulted through time. There’s never enough of it. The older I get the more important it feels not to fritter any of it away.

Everything Unfolding As It Should

Auditioning for America’s Got Talent was an amazing adventure, but apparently the Powers That Be have a better way for me to get my songs out to the world. It appears that this…
Happy New Year!
ByCynthiaIt was so much fun bringing in the New Year last night on stage, singing with the Magnolia Jazz Band in Palo Alto. Wish you could have been there, but you were probably having fun wherever you were. Some more Jan. gigs are scheduled, but so far, they’re all private events just like last night. You’ll be the first…
Technology and Myself
ByCynthiaIt’s been a stormy relationship. There was no natural attraction, but society kept throwing us together. However, through my angry tantrums, begging, pleading, and occasional emotional meltdowns, Technology remained steadfast. Our relationship is definitely high maintenance, and for many years I carried deep resentment for the way it sucked up my time, energy, and money. …
Answering The Artistic Lament
ByCynthiaCreativity needs room. What would this world be without music, art, literature, and live performance? The artistic soul needs time to itself to create. My life is beautifully abundant, and yet somehow amongst earning a living, running errands, paying bills, maintaining a home, self care and spiritual practice, I must find time to write songs…
