At 37 I am seaching for simplicity and creativity amidst the practicality and reality of daily life. I do not want to head into my 40's living life practically, I want to find my creative center, nurture it and find a way to let it flourish

I am a...wife (8 years), daughter (37 years), sister (31 years), aunt (2 years), dog mom (10 years), cancer survivor (34 years), list maker, and a peace keeper (always). I hate confrontation and will do whatever I can to avoid it. I used to be religious and now I am more spritual. I used to try to be what I thought others expected now I just am who I am and that pretty much changes daily.

I have been told I am...flirty, serious, silly, honest, thoughtful, loyal, dependable, smart, helpful

I love...dogs, kids, books, blogs, reading, a good vodka tonic or an ice cold iced tea, peppermint ice cream, Oreos (oh how I love Oreos!), the beach, the ocean and the sun.

I hate...rudeness, entitlement, people who are condescending, olives, waking up earlier than 7:00 am, winter.

I would like to... find my center, nourish my creative side, live simply, write, take more photos.
