about

I’m a fifty something woman who raised two boys and is enjoying the second half of my life. I was a stay-at-home mom for years and I’m now discovering a different side to life. I enjoyed being there for my kids even though the days were hectic I will always cherish them. I’m currently exploring my creative side after working in human services and education for a bit. I hope to make writing a full-time side business in some way. Writing has always been a passion of mine and I would love to make a living doing it. Blogging has allowed me to follow a passion of mine and share my experiences with others.

The Arts

I’m a lover of the arts and have been since I was a little child. Whether it is taking a good photo, decorating, drawing, baking/cooking, writing, or making clay jewelry I love it all. I have also enjoyed going to watch different plays and performances. When I was a child I did needlepoint, cross stitch and learned to sew by hand. I enjoyed drawing and writing. These have been passions of mine since the time I was little. I still enjoy writing poetry and short stories. I also enjoy making clay jewelry in my spare time. I wish I had spent more time on these on a daily basis and hope to make my writing and art a side business.

Did you give up some of the things you love to focus on your family? If so, will you find the time as a mom to get back to the things you love to do? I do think it is important as parents to take care of ourselves and find the time to do the things we love too.
