Welcome to my world of poetry, writing and art. I am a 36 yr old mother, wife, and artist living in Washington, IL. It is my pleasure to share my thoughts and dreams with you here on this blog. Hope you like my work and will continue to come back for more

PLEASE PARTICIPATE! It’s a great way to give a child in need a gift this year! Help me spread the word by sharing my video. THANKS!!!! Operation Teddy Bear (by richardsondesign)

Happy Halloween….What seems innocent and sweet by day morphs into a flesh eating monster at night….Thankfully her cage keeps her from straying to far…..

This is fantastic

You cannot know how deeply and truly honored people like myself are to know that you risk it all for our freedoms. Words cannot express how heartfelt the pain of your loss is even to total strangers. I salute you, your families and your brother / sisters in arms.

Just in time for Halloween…hope you enjoy my darker work. 

This Halloween weekend I am inviting everyone I know to once again take place in my 5-minute challenge. When my brother died 2 years ago it had been 7 years since I had last seen him face to face. I saw him at my wedding, then again at his funeral. I created the challenge as way to encourage people to reach out to those they have lost contact with. Life is so incredibly short and we are not guaranteed a tomorrow. We need to foster and embrace what we have, while we have it. Last year almost 200 people participated, I am hoping to grow this every year. Please participate. It could help you build a bridge with someone that will last a lifetime

Since I have been so vocal about my exercise journey the last few months I thought I would show you a progress shot. The one on the left was taken at the beach in FL at the end of July. The larger one on the right was taken this evening.
