It’s almost time for a Mardi Gras Party in Fairfield. It’ll be loads of fun because I’ll be singing with The Magnolia Jazz Band again. Wish you could be invited, but as usual, it’s a private event. Maybe a public booking will pop up in February? Maybe it’ll show up for Valentines Day….I truly hope you have much love in your life, for yourself, and from others. While the “self-love thing” is always a work in progress, I have been blessed with a 37 year relationship with my loving partner Shelly. If you haven’t found romantic love yet, chin up! I didn’t suddenly grow amazing relationship skills. I just met the right person.

    The folks in town called my Dad “the man with the million dollar smile”.  H e was a family man who enjoyed playing with us kids, and I loved riding around on his shoulders.  Even though he was always home when he wasn’t at work, I never really got to know him as a person…

    I’ve been asked to tell my story at the Unity Castro Valley 10:30 church service this coming Sunday 9/9.  Yes, I was brave enough to write and post it on my website’s Inspirational Page and Face Book timeline, but sharing it live?  Scary!!!  Actually, I’m sure it will be fine if I ask Spirit to speak through me, and remember that…

  • No Inoculation Needed

    People said it looked like I was having fun, and that was so true.  For me, nothing is more fun than performing, and last Saturday night was no exception. I had a funtastic time singin’ and swingin’ at Café Leila in Berkeley.  The audience was super receptive, and seemed so happy that I wondered if…

    All the kids are back in school, and navigating the challenges of a new grade.  Scary?  Exciting?  Maybe kind of Fun?  Meanwhile: The last song (#14) for my album is written, and suddenly I’m thrown into the pre-production phase.  First it’s a big “Whoopee-e-e-e!”  Then reality strikes. This is certainly not my first album, but it’s my first all original…
