I’m a 51 yr old Woman with a bevy of pets, including a husband. My occupation is a musician (vocalist, pianist) and an artist. During the 70′s I sang with the Portland Light Opera, now I do it entirely for my own salvation & sanity. Music is what makes my life worth living. Art runs a close 2nd. My life has been chaotic to say the least, from living underneath bridges and homeless to having untold wealth. Child sexual abuse, rape, armed robbery and surviving a serial killer are just a few of the things that I have experienced during my life. It gives me a very unique perspective on mankind and the human race.  I’m cynical but I do it with a wry sense of humor. I hope you enjoy what you read here. Take most of it with a grain of salt and a smile. Enjoy.
