Happy Birthday Randy! This is a post dedicated to one of the most awesome people I know.

Vintage Ramblings
Vintage. Vintage is a good word. Multiple ideas float to the surface and compete with each other... wanting to be written. Second hand stores... that hidden vintage treasure. Going with my Grandmother when I was a little girl and hating the musty smell of it. Going later, with purpose to find that glittery dress or … Continue reading Vintage Ramblings
Dappled Perfection
I ended a very long vacation yesterday and boy did my own bed feel good last night! This trip was so long, so extended that what I did a month ago seems like a blur.

By the time we married, I … Continue reading A Danish Delight
What I Miss Most
I have been asked if it was a sacrifice to leave the classroom. It was and it wasn't. You see, leaving the classroom to work in the library was an easy decision.

It’s Complicated, A POEM

My lovely girls called from all corners of the world, Gracie from Berlin, Laura from New Orleans … Continue reading It’s Complicated, A POEM
