Been thinking about my family lots and lots lately. Missing them. But I received my favorite photo in the whole world the other day and it helped... This is a photo of my Momma and my brother, Ryland, when he was just a tot. I love this photo so much and have wanted a print… Continue reading family matters. [not that urkel show.]

those simple.
The morning shows on KHOL are just so indie-tastic. So pleasant. Good tunes, good people. It's just such a great way to start your morning. I remember before I helped at the station, I worked with adults with disabilities and one Monday and Tuesday mornings I would drive one of our clients around and we'd… Continue reading those simple.
march is hard.
Oh, music. Had The Morning Scramble on 89.1 KHOL this morning. Did not want to get out of bed, but it turned out to be an amazing show, highlighting the kind of music I needed to get psyched on this day, this light, thisness. TWENTY-TWO new songs! [Some faves: Wye Oak, Jessica Lea Mayfield, Adele,… Continue reading march is hard.

'Tis the season for music. Christmas Music -- YES. [and, boy, do i love it.] But, other music as well. People are gathering: celebrating their fondness for each other, celebrating their love, celebrating a cause, celebrating a hobby, celebrating smiles, celebrating family, celebrating giving, celebrating faith, celebrating someone, celebrating a community, celebrating. Celebrate good times...… Continue reading soundtrack this.
pull it together.
I'm back in Jackson. It's almost surreal. Snow everywhere. Everything is the same... except it's all white. So different than when I left. Hard to get back into the swing of things. [i say that like there was ever a constant rhythm to the swing.] My radio show this morning. Hard to wake up. Walking… Continue reading pull it together.

I laughed at myself when I realized that I included the same Matt & Kim song for the last two blahg posts... but I didn't take one down... cuz the song is that awesome. So awesome that we played it on The Morning Scramble this week: ...but the biggest treat was my special guest DJ,… Continue reading c’mon and move me.

they seem wild.
I promised to put these up, like, forever ago. The first one, I woke up, freaked out, biked to the station, pulled about twenty CDs off the shelf, played music that my super hip music directors recommended on their recent emails. I was unprepared... and the show ruled. So, if you find some amazing new… Continue reading they seem wild.
bright enough inside.
Yesterday was just a bit of a rough one, from begining to end. Thank goodness I have loves to sit with when nothing else besides just sitting is okay. We wined, I whined, I almost cried, I didn't cry, we laughed, one tried on my dresses, we "ooh"ed, we "ahh"ed... life is warm. All but… Continue reading bright enough inside.
the stevens scramble.
I did my radio show with my little brother [Ryland] this morning. It was so great. We laughed. We panicked. He answered the phone... - Hello? KHML... - No, Ryland... KHOL! We remembered our roots. We danced. We played these tunes... It was such a great time... I loved having him share that time, that… Continue reading the stevens scramble.

Coming home from a late pub dinner... - Oh! Can I stop by the station real quick? I wanna grab the shows I recorded off the computer... and maybe a playlist or two. - Sure. Is anyone gonna be there? - Yeah, but I'm sure they won't mind. No one was there. Just a pre-recorded… Continue reading hot and fun.
