as i sit down here to write my very first words of my newly created blog, i am wordless. what can i possibly say that has any value? i can write so much but in the end, it is all just a pile of mere words... forming thoughts i suppose. katharsis: the purging and cleansing of ones emotions. after discovering this word in my english class once upon a time it has been a word that has remained with me... i find myself entering this process weekly, and i feel the weight when i try and shove my ... continue reading...

Hello 2025: Ring Out, Wild Bells
Ring Out, Wild Bells - and just like that time has marched on, brining with it a new year and leaving 2024 in it's wake. For many years the church bells rang out the seasons.

Galentine’s Bouquet & Brunch

It was a thing that grabbed the attnetion of women of all ages and Galentine's parties started popping up everywhere. Now Galentine's Day goes han-in-hand with the historic St. Valentine's holiday celebration. I've done several Galentine's parties over the years, but this year my friend Meredith and I ... continue reading...
