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

    Comments from the Peanut Gallery

    My second-grader had her say this morning at the bus stop about tonight's Project Runway finale show:

    Me: Who do you think will win?

    Her: Well, Julian, I think is the best designer but she didn't use any good colors. Christian used a few more colors because he used tan. And Rami makes some pretty things, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

    Me: Jillian. Her name is Jillian.

    Her: I think Julian makes the best dresses. Christian makes some weird things. But he uses more colors.

    Me: (again) Her name is Jillian.


    Last week, she offered her assessment of the Rami vs. Chris March showdown:

    Her: You know, I think Chris' best talent is that he would be a really good friend.

    I thought that was a truly insightful and on-target critique!
