I Played Hooky!
When my alarm went off on Friday it felt like any other weekday. I hit snooze once—okay twice—and then I got up and went through my morning routine. But it wasn’t a normal weekday. It wasn’t even a work day. Because I was playing hooky! A couple weeks ago, I got an email from one… Continue reading

A Golden Birthday in Nashville (Part 2)
Monday March 21st, 2022 On Monday, the birthday-day!, our first stop was the Country Music Hall of Fame. We walked up and down aisles of country music history, recognizing some faces, and learning about others. My mom has always been a fan of country music, so it was fun to hear songs that she’d played… Continue reading

A Golden Birthday in Nashville (Part 1)
About three years ago my cousin Tanner told me and my family that he wanted to celebrate his twenty first birthday in Nashville, Tennessee. Funnily enough, we were in Paris at the time, waiting for the clock to strike ten so that the Eiffel Tower—which we took to calling “Eif”—would light up. Our group… Continue reading

Because sometimes it’s not always the big moments, the obvious moments, the moments everyone can see from the outside.… Continue reading

The Day My Washer Betrayed Me

So, there I was. It was Saturday night. I’d just finished my takeout. I was watching a movie. I was sitting at the dining room table, painting. I was doing laundry. I was thinking about making hot chocolate. I was feeling at peace. Then the dryer buzzed. Our dryer is a little on the older… Continue reading

The Tuesdays of 2021 (List-cember #8)

At the beginning of this year, one of my goals was to take a picture on every Tuesday of 2021. Now, I will admit right off the bat that I didn’t remember to take a photo every Tuesday, but of the 52, I only missed six. So I’d say that’s pretty good. Looking back at… Continue reading

17 Goals for 2022 (List-cember #7)

I’m finding it harder and harder to believe that it is going to be 2022. Not because I want to stay in 2021—heavens no—but it just seems like it was 2019 yesterday and now it’s going to be 2022. Like, what? Time is flying, and I hope it’s flying towards something good. Something really good.… Continue reading
