I actually handwrote this entry out before typing it here. It’s been awhile since I did that, but often writing things down on paper, while time consuming, is more productive creatively for me. My dearest, most magical readers….. You’ve probably been wondering where I have been. It’s been awhile since I posted anything on the […]

Deconstructing my rules
Anyone who knows me knows that though I am a goofy magical person that tries to march to the beat of her own drum, I also am very much a rule follower. The issue is that I tend to follow a bunch of rules that only make sense in my own head, rules that have […]
Life Lessons from Geocaching: Solo Adventuring
The other half and I have been geocaching now since 2019. If you don’t know what geocaching is, well, there is a blog post I wrote about that. But this is a post in what I will hope will be a series of posts about the lessons of life that I have learned while doing […]
Be Ridiculous
The other day, in the midst of some crazy at the full time job, with my head swimming of things I needed to do and people I needed to speak to and reply to. I got a voicemail. A voice from the past who said just a few words….. And suddenly I taken back in […]

I don’t lead an extraordinary life. Far from it. I work a pretty mundane full time customer service job where I am face to face with people all day long. I come home to my fairly mundane two bedroom brick house on the southside of the largest city in Iowa, known as part of flyover […]
“I wish you’d grow up”
When I was younger and living in the Golden State, my grandmother across the country used to send us money for Christmas. Each person got a set amount usually in the middle of December to spend as we pleased. My parents would take us shopping in the weeks leading up to Christmas so that we […]
The rest is still unwritten….
Lately, the muse of writing has been kind of quiet in my life….. But that’s understandable. I’ve been busy with other facets. I do work a full time job and sometimes it gets crazy there. The adventuring with friends to find geocaches has been strong, especially since I am less than twenty days from a […]
Motherhood
I’m gonna need to get something off my chest. Mother’s Day was this past weekend. But amidst the cards and the candy and the wind chimes and flowers and plants and the little handmade gifts that were given, there is a undercurrent as well. The holiday was started as a movement to recognize WOMEN in […]
