Such an amazing show last summer. #dragwarstexas was hosted in #SanAntonio amd it was fantastic. Better than the short vids and pics can show. A beautiful organization supporting a sober lifestyle for these amazing performers in each of the 4 sister cities. I missed the show this year in Dallas last month, but I think HTX is next for 2020?! #LATEPOST #texasdragwars #brickatbluestar #alldragisvalid (at Brick at Blue Star Arts Complex) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2TXfP5nnsFFLjGuUB8uvdYyAH_l3D1GBuQOOw0/?igshid=n7kbx1kqf444

Still working through last year's life changes... Closer to a 'normal' this last month. Hopefully I can.play catch up on here and will start sharing some of the amazong pics and.vids from the quality time I had with friends and loved ones through the rest of 2018 and the beginning of 2019. #damagedbutnotbroken #notdefeated #keeppushing #strongerbecauseihadtobe https://www.instagram.com/p/ByQh194n1nGnpgQxIzo8ZUgWQc32j3jSXiId6k0/?igshid=gmzy5q75vxw8

I've been Instagram MIA for about 6 mIs and almost ready to come back. For my friends and followers on Facebook, you've seen a little bit more of the day-to-day stuff recently. 2018 proved to be one of the harder years for me to push through with more than my fair share of family drama, toxic relationships, major reset with home life, work, and putting distance between myself and loved ones. I'm not completely back up on my 2 feet yet, but I'll be there soon. 2019 will definitely have to be full of deliberate/uphill steps in the right direction. I provided for others to a fault, and just like this picture, was pouring from an empty cup. There are people that I've been supporting for years, people that took advantage of my generosity and my reclaimed energy from 2016 and 2017. Equally I am at fault, because I let it happen. I knew it was happening, hindsight is 20/20. I just didn't expect some of the things that played out the way they did. I have put a stop to the negative energy drain, the co-dependent relationships that I had with loved ones. I said "enough was enough", and literally packed my stuff and left to get away from the lies and secrets. I've had a complete reset both for better and for worse, do I regret decisions that I've made, "no", #LessonLearned! There definitely was anger and frustration, because it felt like I was starting over again and I had wasted the last 10yrs of my adult life when I moved here to SA. But I'm still here! I finally took some advice, cashed in some of my good karma points, and called in a couple of favors. I felt vulnerable for sure. I had never been in such an unstable situation. I prided myself on my control of my situation and very deliberate decision making over the years. Hence how I was able to support myself and others for so many years. But I have underestimated the #FamilyOfChoice that I had built over the last few years. The most amazing people unexpectedly stepped into my circle and took an active roll and some of the life decisions that I needed to make for myself again. I can't thank them enough...I'm in a better place now. I'm not 100%, but I'll post and get caught up soon. #LoveIn2019 #thankyou https://www.instagram.com/p/Br9azkPAX3m1omxhe2S1TmBkbyBnXxguGxnXtA0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1c3dif4chsje8

#Gelato at #baklovahbakery is my new #dayoff #indulgence. This whole area has been bough out and turned into a Mediterranean market, bakery, strip mall of shops and eateries. The #bananapudding is my favorite and #nostalgic flavor for this bear. #baklovahbakeryandsweets #baklövâh #turkishrestaurant #wurzbachroad #foodfinds (at Baklovah Bakery)

We start out at church, and always end up with mimosas and have less and less orange juice in them... We were feeling bougie with the gold flake in the bubbly! Thanks to pur gracious host, Gregg for putting up with us. #brunched #mimosas #champagne #goldflakes #dayofrest #Woof (at Chartwell Condominiums)

No matter what's going on, no matter what town or what part of the state, I always make it a point to put a few bucks together to get Mom some flowers for Mother's Day. Even if it's my last bit of cash in my pocket. Flowers make everyone feel special. #latepost #mothersday #mothersday2018 #flowers #flores #diadelosmadres (at Jim's Restaurant At Loop 410 and Bandera)

I never got a chance to posting the rest of the pictures from the evening at the #SanAntonioSymphony over at the #MajesticTheatre for #piratesofthecaribbean. This was one of the most amazing concepts and #concerts or #musicalperformances I've been to in a long time. This evening was even more more enjoyable with someone I consider a great friend, #beautifulhumanbeing, and a very talented fellow #musician, @cpmegamanx. Great was to #celebrate your #sendoff and move out of state. #imissyoumyfriend! Again thank you for joining me at the #symphony that night. I had an amazing evening with unbeatable company! #woof #outonthetown #downtownsanantonio #downtown #otters #mustacioedlife #💜 #FriendsNightOut #dinnerandashow #blueeyedboys #hats #LiveMusic #orchestra #mindblown #friendsmovingaway (at Majestic Theatre)
