FINDING FORTY

In 2010, I turned 40 and spent a great part of that year figuring out some serious stuff in my life. Newly 42, I'm still on the path of discovery but feel I've come quite far. This tiny space is my save haven, one of the only places I can come to work through my worries, fears, exaltations, and endeavors. Thank you to those who've helped me along the way and those of you who stop by to read my crazy thoughts. Enjoy!

Barely 42, moving onward and upward, spiraling downward at times. Soulful, sensitive, stupid, and searching, I'm just a gal who's working it out still. 42 BETTER get better, this year has already been a doozie.
