I’ve been in both professional and non-professional choirs for 19 years, but this isn’t a list of choral-adjacent songs. It’s just my taste, and honestly, it still surprises me sometimes. These tracks scratch an itch I can’t quite explain. I can listen to them over and over and still get shivers. No sacred music here, nothing Baroque or classical. They just drive me a little bit insane in the best way. Call it ear candy, call it texture, call it whatever you want. These songs hit the spot. Check them out and let me know if they hit the spot for you too.

Here are a few of my recommendations for art supplies that any artist should absolutely own! I'm passionate about finding good quality art supplies that don't break the bank!
Most of us write with whatever pen happens to be nearby: the freebie from the bank, the four-pack from the checkout aisle. But the pen in your hand shapes how it feels to write, and once you notice the difference, it's hard to go back. This list is a journey from the everyday to the exceptional. Start with the reliable workhorses that beat the average ballpoint, move through smooth gel and rollerball pens that make daily writing a small pleasure, and arrive at the fountain pens that turn a grocery list into something you actually enjoy putting on paper. You don't have to spend a fortune or become a collector. This is about slowing down, writing by hand a little more often, and discovering that the right pen can make an ordinary moment feel intentional. Whether you're journaling, jotting, or finally writing that letter, there's a pen here ready to win you over. Start at the top of the list and work your way down!

Most of them have to do with Art (as that's what I love), Marketing/Social Media and with AI as i'm fascinated with it and let's face it, if you don't keep up with it you will be left behind.
