Telling My Story to Out There Podcast

I'm so excited!

A week or so ago I made a comment on the Facebook page for one of my favorite podcasts called Out There Podcast. I was answering a question about canceling a thru-hike, which I did recently.

Well...Willow Belden, the host of the podcast asked if I'd be willing to be interviewed for an episode. I about fell out of my chair! OF COURSE I WOULD!

That interview was released today and I'm so happy to share it with you!

Here is Episode #113 For the Greater Good

I hope you enjoy the show as well as check out her other episodes, she's an amazing storyteller.

Hello Again from the Road

I Didn't Know I Had a Second Blog! To be honest, I forgot I had this blog. I created my new one at AllieRambles.com to document my hiking and RV life AllieRambles.com to document my hiking and RV life but I generally don't show a lot of my private life or emotions there. I mostly like to talk about where I go and how to live on the road. Then about a week ago I thought about starting a blog again. I feel the need to talk about my personal life, my ups and downs and all that. Just me talking, I mean writing, about it all, like I am right now. I went to check out Blogger because I don't want to bother with too many design elements and a host. When I arrived at Blogger Google told me I already had a blog here! Mogollon Rim, Arizona (I was just there a week ago) So wow! All I need to do is write! What should you expect going forward from this blog? My last post was in 2020. It is now May 2024 and I gotta te...

I'm Done with Hearing About Covid-19

I know, I sound like a selfish, heartless bitch. "WAH! Can't Covid just go away already?!" But you know you are all thinking it. It dominates my social feeds, my news, and even discussions with those I speak with. When I get gas - the threat looms. When I get groceries - the threat looms. When I walk the neighborhood - the threat looms! Don't touch anything. Don't touch your face. Stay 6 feet back. And if someone sneezes or coughs in public we're all panicking. I fully understand the dangers of the Covid-19. People are dying. ********** I'm angry. I'm frustrated. I'm disappointed. WHY? My life rests on depending on the idea that others will be responsible. And I have no faith that they will be. I don't like that I'm at the mercy of the masses - that in my eyes tend to mostly make bad decisions. How many don't wash their hands after using the restroom? Before eating? After changing a baby diaper? ...

The Problem I Have with Dating in Midlife

I read an article on Medium yesterday about dating in your 50's called My Problem with First Dates and Fifty-Something-Year-Old Men . This reminded me of the few dating months I experienced years ago. I dated 5 men starting about 6 months after my divorce was official. I dated for about 8 months or so then stopped - cold turkey style. That was 5 years ago. Since then I've had NO INTEREST in dating or meeting anyone new at all. That includes female friendships. When I made this decision I felt selfish. I wanted life for a while to be all about ME. Is that so bad? I wanted to explore who I am. Taking off from about 21 years of age when I was last officially single and see who the hell I was then, for the last 30+ years and who I want to be. This was around the same time I started my simple living journey . I just wanted life for me to be simple for a while. I needed to be only in my head; I couldn't have anyone else cloud who...
