From Denton (north of Dallas) Texas

How exciting! And what a treat to be able to take a big plunge into this piece with Carl and this group!

I’m Toto. I love living in a hundred year old ‘Tudor’ with my spouse and adult special needs kiddo (and an old poodle, Charlie), and nearby my other kiddo, in a wonderfully diverse college town–in my North Texas. Sam’s our family bread-winner and I’ve been–and will continue to be for some time–the stay-at-home parent/caregiver since our kids were babies. It allows me now a lot of time to do deep dives like this, and explore the beautiful mystical path we share.

I’m perennial–in faith more than flora–and I enjoy community online at The Virtual Chapel.

And thanks, Carl, for doing this. Did I mention I was excited? Oh, I lead with it. Well, it’s no less true here at the end of my intro. 😉
