A lot of stuff going on
Shalom שלום! So, there’s been a lot of stuff going on as of late, from new interviews to art, from working on developing a new website for my art to making a lot of plans for the future (aka the new five-year plan). All of that atop planning out my new fiction book and dealing…
Happy high-holy days! – Yom Kippur
G’mar Chatima Tovah! It’s the eve of Yom Kippur, we’re getting ready for Kol Nidre service tonight, followed by services all morning into the evening, when because we’ve fasted 25 hours, we break the fast with a feast. This is our first Yom Kippur, and has been amazing; the healing, the love, and forgiveness, the…
Down, but not out!
So, atop my back having issues due to my Ankylosing Spondylitis getting worse, my knees, whose cartilage is worn from decades of hard style martial arts kicks, are also bad enough to keep me fairly immobile. Luckily, I am upstairs in our house and can make it to the bathroom, our bedroom, and my office….
Illness and the high-holy days
L’Shannah Tovah! Rosh Hashannah has come and while we’d initially planned on attending our synagogues services in-person, 4 out of our 6 person family are currently sick.

Me, I’ll be fine, studying and testing for certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) through it. Working on laying the foundation for our…
Waiting and art
I have been waiting for packages as of late, one via USPS that they lost and some art books from Amazon because I’ve been in a very artistic mood as of late. I’ve even broken out my painting supplies again and might be painting a bit shortly. I’ve been an artist my whole life, but…
More blogging, more fun
I have decided to blog more often on here, and much like the section here with articles, it will be partly based on my life and partly on my journey into Judaism. I have a lot to say and not all of it needs to be written out into an article here. So expect a…
