I am looking to get to know either a nice man or a woman. Friendship is great and if it gets to be more than friendship that's fine, but, one step at a time. I am a very open and accepting individual, I don't judge. I am the kind of person that if it doesn't work or as a relationship I would love to remain friends.
I am honest and I hope you will be honest with me. I am here to listen and hope you'll listen to me.

A boss once said this to me, and I found it to be true quite often. Who is going to know you appreciate him/her if you say nothing and just wait like a bump on the log or a hopeful Cinderella behind a door? Be your own champion or magic godmother and GET OUT THERE! Make the first move and talk to someone in a friendly, not morbid, way. Everyone likes attention...to himself/herself...and will most likely come back for more. If someone at home is griping or sulking about your concerns with…

Okay. I tried it. I went to poetry potluck/reading today with safe church people at a private home and, fortified with Bravery Juice, read my 10-stanza poem (which I wrote during the church service...shhh) about coming out with my bald head. I took the wig off at stanza #5. Applause came at the end, but, surprisingly, there were no questions from the uninformed few about what condition I even HAVE! I kept the wig off, and the rest of the readings just went on with no hoopla.…

Oh, the comfort!
The inexpressible comfort
Of feeling safe with a person,
Having neither to weigh thoughts
Nor measure words,
But pouring them all right out,
Chaff and grain together;
Certain that a faithful hand
Will take and sift them,
Keep what is worth keeping,
And with the breath of kindness,
Blow the rest away.

Hi everyone,
It is funny that now I'm waiting for the official news/words from a few potential employers...suddenly, I have so much time for my own...couple of hours of packing or helping others to pack, some jogging, sit-ups and push up...here and there, watch my favourite sitcoms "Everybody loves Raymond"...I still have plenty of time to spare.
Well, it gives me time to think of my alopecia more often, its like I feel more aware of my alopecia than before I was still a…

Hey Gang,
I have an idea!
How about passing around some books about alopecia? Once you read it write a note inside and pass it along.

In just over a day from now, I will be attending NAAF's annual conference for the very first time in my life. Of course, I owe this honor to my fiancée and co-founder of Alopecia World, Cheryl Carvery, who has been living with alopecia areata for nearly 20 years. Since it is my pleasure to support Cheryl, and given my involvement with Alopecia World, I am excited to have the opportunity to attend this year's conference. However, this means that I am going to miss seeing my middle daughter's…

I am so amazed by what is happening in my life right now...some passions and hopes that have been unfulfilled for many years are starting to come true one after the other. One of them happened today, and all thanks to AW. We had our first support group meeting here in the Phoenix area. I guess there was a meeting many years back that fizzled out. But I have been here 7 years and looked a few times in the past 7 years and there has not been one.
Five of us ladies came and we had a… Continue

It's so funny how God works - everything has its own time and only He knows when the time is right. God comes along and says "OK, you're ready to receive this change and grow." I don't always want these changes. And sometimes, I have been praying for them for years and wondered why they were taking so long to happen. My journey from AA to AU started at four. Bald spots and thinning were a part of my life pretty much every spring of my childhood. I had no idea though, that ALL the hair on my… Continue
