Well, since I’m writing this on June 29, 2023, I don’t have a lot to say about last Christmas. What I WILL say, is that I brought a light lavender into my scheme–through pillows, wrappings and faux stems which I tucked into my tree–and I absolutely loved it. At this point, I plan to use …
Which relationship do you think is more important–the marital relationship or the relationship among/between siblings? Okay, yes. You’re right. I just got done watching episode 11 of season 6 of This Is Us. Yeah, I’m a little late to the party. ( If you know me, you know I’m literally always late to the party.). …
Good morning! (Is it okay if I start every blog post that way, regardless of what time I’m writing? I mean, I feel like it’s tradition. You know? It’s one of the things I miss about Instagram. ) You know what today is?? It’s the day I”m launching my website! Is it done yet? No. …

Being Valentine’s Day and all, I thought it appropriate to write about kissing. Have I already written about this?? I was boy crazy from my earliest memories. I remember every boy I’ve ever loved (liked), starting in kindergarten: Justin Bigger mexican kid from school (i don’t remember his name.) Mark Wilkins Steven Perkowski Jess Warren …
Well, I managed to run into a little Christmas magic just in the nick of time. This shouldn’t surprise me. After all, it seems like every year, right before Christmas–like on the 22nd or 23rd–I finally find the magic I’ve been looking for. This year, it happened like this: Ever since like 2014 (when we …
December 4, 2017 Dear Family and Friends, I’m sitting at my computer with Christmas music playing softly as I write. My Christmas playlist has been playing all evening. It was playing just now as I had a screaming match with Danin and then dragged her to her room, literally. I’m 39 years old now, …
