In one reality, I am a 911 dispatcher and a single mother of 2. In my alternate reality I am an artist and mystic. Original Bliss is the space between, where I work my alchemy to bring these worlds together.
Interests: reading, creating, "soul journaling", mysticism, travel - especially sweet road trips with the love of my life, eating really good food, big chewy red wine, spending time with my favorite people - my family
