Hello!

graphic tee

In what felt like the blink of an eye, I have gone from full-time wife to my sweet husband, hands-on mom to my two beautiful daughters and elementary school librarian to a retired, empty nester with lots of time on my hands. Join me on my journey to rediscover who I am. Glad you are here...

01.22.2023 They didn't give a letter jacket back i 01.22.2023 They didn't give a letter jacket back in '75 when I was a high school senior and editor of the Bartlett High School literary magazine "The Scribe."

lilac turtleneck.
