• Life Changes

    They say if you want to make the universe laugh, tell it your plans. Goodness isn’t that true. There are many things about the last several weeks that have given truth to that statement. I think that the thing that has me really laughing is how the universe has shown me how wrong some of…

  • The Dating World

    Bet you never thought you would hear those words out of me. Trust me, you aren’t the only one. But I managed to find myself in a position where I met a man, and I like him. And it really got me thinking about what I would want if I ever really re-entered the dating…

  • Post Taylor Swift

    Over the weekend I was able to go to see Taylor Swift perform at Rogers Centre in Toronto for Night 6 of the Eras Tour. Anyone who knows me in real life knows that I had been waiting for that day for 461 days. And it was everything I had hoped it would be and…

  • It’s Been A While

    I had to take a break, because it felt like I wasn’t enjoying this anymore. But now I’m back, and I realized how much I missed it. The last week has been rough (I say as someone who voted for Kamala Harris) but I know that if we stick together, we will make it through…

  • The Beginning

    I told you last time that I had booked my trip to Greece for 2025. I took the next step this week, and I bought a new DSLR camera. I’ve never considered myself a photographer, nor will I ever (more than likely), but I love nature, and pictures of the landscape from different areas of…

  • Settling In- Finally

    Let me start by saying how incredibly crazy my life has been the last month. I traveled to see my brother and his wife and daughter – across the county. I found out my sister is expecting a child. I almost adopted another cat. Oh, and we almost went to trial on a case that…

  • Family Time

    For the first time in 18 months I get to see my brother and spend time with my niece. It’s hard having them across the country, but it just makes the time we spend together that much more valuable. And I’m excited to have it. Because without it, my life wouldn’t be worth living most…

  • Getting Ready

    I’m not a girl who does her hair and makeup. I’m not a girl who makes sure her nails are done or that she has the latest and greatest skin care routine. Frankly, I’m not even the girl that remembers to wash her face daily. It just isn’t me. And that is okay. But I’ve…

  • Travel Bug

    I’m getting ready to fly from the Midwest to the Southwest to visit family over the holiday weekend. It will be a good time, though I really just want to go hiking while I’m down there (I will find a way to make this happen). But I’ve also started thinking about what trips I want…

  • Finally Free

    I talk about my divorce a lot. And honestly it’s because it has been the biggest thing in my life for the last year. But today I finally got to truly close the door on that part of my life. Everything is final and done. The last piece that I was waiting to be transferred…
