Hello.
It’s been a while.
For a long time I have dreaded even the thought of opening up this site and explaining myself. And then, through chance and happenstance -as so many things come to be- this video showed up in my awareness.
Early in the video Erika says:
But is it the horrible thing that my formative years would have me to believe, or is it the one thing that could bring me more joy than I could ever imagine?
I have moved. I’m in a little, purple house, in a funky neighborhood in an area of a town that, when I was a child, was the subject of jokes -saw your momma down on Spruill Avenue last night. . . but it has been reclaimed and is in transition.
Like me.
This is a good place to begin. The children are okay. I’m grateful. I am surrounded by friends who love me. I am grateful.
And I am happy. I can say that and it feels honest and true.
I needed that.

I love your house. It makes me smile too!
Thank you, Elizabeth. Never in a million years would I have pictured this, but here I am.
It is awesome that you are happy, you work too hard and take care of so many people that it is an injustice to think of you being unhappy.
