My All-Time Favorite Album: Wish You Were Here
It’s been 50 years. Fifty years since it came out- Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here. I was toddling about the year it came out. But my parents were big music fans, and I grew up listening to Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, the Moody Blues…my mom would throw in some…

A topic I’d like to learn more about- stickers!
I’ve got a slight obsession with stickers. When I was little, we used to go to the “big”mall 45 minutes away. One of the stores had roll after roll of stickers along the wall. We’d tear off individual stickers we wanted to buy, including our favorites- the scratch and sniff stickers. My sisters and I…

A Lifelong Love- Music

My Favorite Food-Pizza
I love pizza. At my old house, my ex and I built this enormous wood-fired pizza oven. I probably weighed like 20 pounds more than I do now because every weekend- literally every weekend- we would spend a day cranking out pizzas and eating them and sharing them with whoever was around- family, friends, neighbors…

Walking
I love to walk… and run, although this year has not been a great running year. (Also by run I mean jog. Or very very fast walk lol). Walking and jogging are how I get my daily exercise. It’s how I clear my head. I love getting 10,000+ steps, although my Fitbit is out of…
