Pride weekend has come and gone for another year. As always, it was lovely to be out in the community and to meet so many people. I was excited about Pride but I have to admit I was a little off, a little tired. I started off strong... ...but as the day progressed my energy … Continue reading Pride and Storms
The other day I wrote about a PBS documentary about Casa Susanna. Several readers let me know a few more things about this remarkable place that I would like to share. Although the documentary doesn't air until June 27th, if you have a TPR Passport membership you can stream it now. Barbara Jean, the Queen … Continue reading Casa Susanna Part Deux
Hi! Minneapolis is celebrating Pride all month but this upcoming weekend is when the party really starts! Pride is one of those events when I wish I was a party girl instead of... well, a stay home girl.

She was very patient and just super fun to … Continue reading From Makeup Brushes to Paint Brushes!
I get quite a few emails from partners and spouses of people like me and likely people like you. We are on our own journeys but we all experience many of the same things. One of the commonalities is that we know there is something different (and amazing and beautiful) about us AND it's something … Continue reading Turning Point
I don't want anyone to think I am a professional model. And I don't want anyone to think that I myself think that I am a professional model. I'm not and I don't. Annnd I don't want to be. Well, maybe I do... but only when I am stuck in a meeting or staring at … Continue reading Fridays and Feminine Flaws
I think there is unmatched ambition that comes with youth. There's this amazing and naïve optimism that we have... a fire that burns hot... until the world succeeds in beating it out of us. Worn down by responsibilities and heartbreak we develop a slow resignation that we are powerless. But that's not true. We can … Continue reading Well, Now What?
This is wonderful. From Minnesota Public Radio: The Minnesota House of Representatives passed a bill early Friday by a vote of 68-62 that would prevent state courts or officials from complying with child removal requests, extraditions, arrests or subpoenas related to gender-affirming health care that a person receives in Minnesota.
