Traveling Passport in hand, the World at my feet. Where should I go? Maybe I'll... Hop on a plane to the balmy beaches of Fiji... Board a train in Scotland to see the Highlands... Sail the clear waters of the Greek Isles... Take a road trip from California to Massachusetts... Ride a horse in Wyoming... … Continue reading Travel Poem

Waiting
Waiting Waiting for a slow dance beneath the stars. Waiting for a stroll at sunset. Waiting for a soft kiss in the rain. Waiting for time to inch us closer to no more waiting. Don't say I didn't warn you: I really am terrible at poetry. As always, thanks for stopping by. ❤

Happy Easter tomorrow! … Continue reading Impatient

The real estate listing had a lot of incorrect information on it, which worked in our favor because … Continue reading House History

If I ever publish anything in an actual book, I suppose I'll have to thank my dog Porkchop in the Acknowledgements. This one's written in the 1st … Continue reading Two Coins
