My wonderful son called first thing this morning to ask me if I liked my Mother's Day card ... that his wife reminded him to get, which he did and it is now sitting on his desk, ready to be mailed. 🤣 He really does try 🥰
My niece and nephew came by to surprise me for Mother's Day. 🎉 I haven't seen my nephew since December and my niece since November so it was most definitely a great surprise! 😃
My first day on beige.party has been wonderful! Everyone has been super kind, funny and welcoming! I hope y'all know how much it is appreciated 💜 💜 💜
(I'll be over there in the corner sniveling like a big old baby)

Linux App Summit would not exist without the generous contributions from our sponsors. @opensuse is especially special to us as the first to sponsor to LAS. They provided the initial seed money to start this conference and have been a consistent supporter for ten years! Thank you so much, @opensuse!

Gratitude practice changes what we see. It reminds us of what we have.

Just received my Grammy medal and certificate, and I’m still taking it all in. Truly grateful to God, my collaborators, and everyone who’s supported me along the way.

Slowly making some progress…
...with the help of some sweet friendos! 💜 Thanks to two of my bestest friends, we've been able to make some small, but important to me, changes in my little home at the start of the month. My friends came to visit me on April 3rd, and they were kind and sweet enough to help me with hanging up a roller curtain in the kitchen (no more sunrise 🌅 glare, and being blinded while sitting on the couch during that time 😎), and with pulling a cat6 LAN cable through the tubes, going to the PC room upstairs. I could definitely not have managed any of these things without their help, and for that, I am very truly grateful! A Bitmoji based on Cynni appears smiling brightly, wearing blue headphones, reflective blue sunglasses, and a purple T-shirt with a heart in the nonbinary (enby) flag colors. The character is surrounded by animated, floating hearts in a full rainbow spectrum—reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues, and purples—creating a cheerful, love-filled, uplifting atmosphere.

Agnes is just a baby! This is her first groom of her whole life and she’s 6 months old. 🥰🐾✨ We are so blessed to be her first professional grooming experience! We went slow and introduced her to all of the noises, vibrations and processes at her pace. She had a good amount of treats and we had a ton of fun!

It was a banner Treasure Hunt Tuesday. I found a couple things I have put off buying because they weren't in my budget: an artists portfolio ($2.10 with bonus sketch pad) and a combo magnetic/tack board ($4), both new. The value of these are $22 & $52 on Amazon. Also found a new tall storage bin for my studio ($4), a small bookcase for my cocktail books ($4.90) and a brand new train set for my Christmas Village ($4). Plus other useful stuff. #grateful #TreasureHuntTuesday #thrift #DontBuyAmazon

While out and about yesterday, I stopped at Aldi for essentials and picked up a pineapple while I was there. Then, at Goodwill, there was a pineapple corer/slicer, brand new, still wrapped, in the box. I figured this was a sign so I bought it.
It's hard to express just how handy that thing is. It stripped that fruit of its pineappley goodness in mere minutes. Totally worth the $3.20 US it cost me. #thrift #reuse #recycle #grateful #PineappleInTheDehydrator -
My bread machine hurled itself off my kitchen counter a few years ago. I haven't missed it much except it was very good for making dough. Today I bought a used one, in excellent condition, at the thrift store for $6.29 US. A baking blogger was kind enough to provide the user's manual on their site. I figured I could use this bread maker until I find something better but the more I read, the more I like it. It's smaller and more efficient than the model it replaced. #grateful #thrift #reuse

Still feeling incredibly grateful for all the love and support since my Grammy win. I truly wasn’t expecting the outpouring of messages here, and it means more than I can say. Thank you to everyone who took a moment to reach out, celebrate, and share in this with me — community like this is everything.

"Strength always comes back the moment you begin to show up again." - Futurist Jim Carroll
Today is a big day as I FINALLY head back to the gym.
For ten weeks, my world has been defined by limitations.
Don't twist. Don't lift. Don't rush. When you live in "protection mode" with a spinal injury for that long, it’s easy to believe that you’ve lost your edge. You start to wonder if the engine has rusted over completely.
But data doesn't lie, and it doesn't care about my worries.
Before heading back to the gym today, I ran a diagnostic on my own recovery when I went into my home gym on Saturday. And I was impressed with the results.
Looking at the hard numbers from this "shakedown" home workout. I expected to see weakness; instead, I saw a lot of capacity. My body handled 60 reps of heavy pulling without a single complaint from my back. My heart rate recovery has hit a "safety floor" and refused to drop further. My VO2Max has actually started to go back into the upper-edge of "above-average" with all the indoor 'mall walking' I've been doing.
The charts proved that while I was busy healing, I wasn't decaying.
My foundation is solid!
It might have to do with a screen I shared early into the story of this process - my biggest exercise for 2025, before slipping on ice and breaking 3 small bones on my back - was back extensions!
I've had long-running conversations in a chat with Google Gemini AI about my situation and recovery. One moment, it pointed out that what probably saved me from greater damage was all the muscle I built back there!
And my test workout shows that muscle never really left - it's just the bones that had a 'thing.'
That realization shifts everything.
I am not walking into the gym today to "fix" a broken body.
I am walking in to reactivate a strong one.
One way to put it - the rust is just on the surface—the steel underneath is as solid as ever.
Time to get to work.

I’m still trying to process this… I just won my first ever Grammy 🏆
Winner for Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella for Super Mario Praise Break, arranged by Bryan Carter, Charlie Rosen, and myself with The 8-Bit Big Band. Deeply grateful to God, my collaborators, and everyone who’s supported this journey.

Today’s Small Moment:
In the midst of losing my dad—and my brother just four months ago—I’ve been overwhelmed by how deeply simple kindness can matter. Friends, extended family, and even people I’ve never met have been a quiet anchor in these hardest days.Grief has also shown me who steps forward and who stays silent. That truth stings, but it’s grounding. It reminds me to lean toward the people whose compassion shines without being asked.
This photograph came from a morning when I rushed up the Blue Ridge Parkway, hoping to reach Pine Spur Overlook before sunrise (several years ago). I arrived later than I planned, yet the light that waited there still found me—quiet and steady, much like the support that has carried me through these days. It might sound corny and cliché, but it’s true.
