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

    You Know Your Kid is A Budding Goth When...

    ... you go downstairs to check on her, and find her 8-year-old-bucket parked in what resembles a makeshift coffin (with pillows & blankets for comfort!) while watching a dvd of classic Frankenstein.

    Just an FYI...but a child here died in a chest just like that one yesterday. He used to sit in it and watch tv. They're not sure how the lid closed....but it appears he fell asleep in there and then died from lack of oxygen. Scary stuff!!!

    I don't mean to freak you out or anything...but I would feel awful if something happened and I hadn't shared this story with you.
