I am an East Coast expatriate hiding out in the Midwest...

I am an urban gal living in the suburbs and occasionally hiding in the country

I am a yoga practitioner, fitness enthusiast, believer in the mind-body-spirit connection...

I am a mid-life "revert" to the Roman Catholic faith in which I was raised and which has become an enormous source of support, encouragement, inspiration, and joy in my life...

I am a mom, sister, daughter, and wife...

I am an explorer; adventurous and curious about the world and people around me...

I am educated in the formal sense but I gain insight through everyday living...

I created this blog at a time of great fear and apprehension in my life. I chose to sustain it because of the discoveries about myself and the world around me that it has revealed.



What you can expect to find here:
  • the documentation of a love-hate relationship with the greater Philadelphia area
  • reminiscing about the good-ole-days (the 80's!)
  • complaints about my various ailments and injuries, both real and imagined
  • pictures and stories of gardening, decorating, shopping, sewing
  • my love of irony
  • links to kooky news stories
  • way too much scatological musing for sane people

    Our New Baby

    I've been swamped with various chores, projects, appointments...as well as babysitting duty for our new kitten, "Percy". We got him on Monday afternoon and I've had few sleep-filled night since! He appears to be long-haired and although his eyes are blue-gray now, I would not be surprised if they change to green.


    I will likely be very busy for the next two weeks with more appointments, out-of-town visitors, and continuing babycare. He is barely 6 weeks old but is doing well on his food and the "kitten glop" I made to give him that extra nutrition boost. (A sort of pudding made from yogurt, evaporated milk, egg, and gelatin.) He's doing great with his litter box but is sort of pestering our dog and "senior citizen" cat, Buster, so I have to really keep an eye on him as they are tolerant of him but I'd hate to see him push the envelope too much with his antics!

    Sorry to lower the standards of your blog, but I am forced (by law) to post this "Save the Kittens" link everytime someone gets a new kitten:
