It’s hard to to write a gratitude blog on a day that feels so perfect. I just want to document every little detail in some boring “Dear Diary” style… But really, I just want to enjoy the music, feel the breeze, look out at the pond, and smile in this moment. I’m happy. Gratitude isContinue reading “One Eternal Round”

This is one of the bookshelves in the living room. It’s a monument to my personality. Completely disorganized, without rhyme or reason, yet oddly pleasing. I have a Q’ran lodged next to A Marvelous Work And A Wonder. And of course, my collection of Buffy dvds next to Neal A. Maxwell and Alex Haley. IContinue reading “Books”

I walked into their apartment and took in the new hard floors, the newly tiled kitchen, the gorgeous refinished furniture, the paintings… all of this Christi found/did. She is a woman with taste and woman with skills. I found her laid out on the couch. She’s on bedrest until her little one is born laterContinue reading “Christi”

I love the ability that we have to communicate and inform ourselves ad nauseum. But today, I long for a day of thoughtful and careful prose. A day where people hesitate before they immortalize themselves and question anything written with didactic intentions. I long for a day when people valued seeing things from different perspectives,Continue reading “Perspectives”

Nothing like vacuuming to immediately feel productive! I washed the windows, bleached all the surfaces, and gassed the elevator with Lysol… right before aContinue reading “Gratitude Posts About Productivity Are Boring For Anyone But the Writer”

When they first got married, he owned the local Napa Auto Parts store in Tremonton. As kids we would allContinue reading “65”

Blogging about love is tricky. This is public. My mother reads this on occasion. I am super aware of what I post and that this is going across the great vast interwebs. Having said that–being single is very much a part of my identity. There are people who identify themselves as part of a couple.Continue reading “Rambling About Love”

Today I spent time with my grandma and my brother going through her videos in preparation for her move from a nice 4 bedroom home to a 1 bedroom condo. Wisely, she stayed up stairs while we boxed them all up for donation. If I list some of the amazing movies that we donated today,Continue reading “My Metaphorical Tardis is Better Than Your Mansion”

Today I’m grateful for protection when cutting a lock. And especially for my dear, thoughtful, thought provoking friend a Nancy.

Last night, we rolled out the red carpet for the arrival of the newest members of the Midvale Main Street Theatre Family! The puppets are here!! We poured champagne and orange soda and toasted the new arrivals. Pictures do not do these puppets justice. I can’t begin to tell you how delightful these puppets are.Continue reading “Puppets!”
