    Sticker Wall

    March 17, 2023 / 2 Comments

    When I was a little girl, I told my mom that one day, I would have a wall of stickers in my house. She would often reply to such statements by saying, “when you have your own house, you can do whatever you want.” Well, today is the day. Amelia and I are starting our own sticker wall in the hallway that leads to the basement of our house.

    I Remember Things That Everyone Else Forgets

    March 14, 2023 / 9 Comments

    I’ve become the archivist of my own life. I remember the things that everyone else forgets. As the archivist of my own life, I hold a unique and valuable perspective. My ability to remember the small details and moments that others may overlook provides me with a deep appreciation for the richness and complexity of my experiences.

    March 13, 2023 / No Comments

    When I was younger, my parents gave me a Magnetic Poetry Kit for Christmas. This was the first poem I created using an old stop sign I had on the wall of my bedroom. My mom asked me to take the poem down, and instead of removing the poem, I moved the sign to the attic of their two car garage where I eventually ended up doing the vast majority of my writing.

    Ambulance

    February 19, 2022 / 2 Comments

    This is one of my childhood toys that currently sits on my dining room table. When I was a little girl, I told my parents that one day, I’d drive one of these. At the time, they didn’t know what to say. Years later, I drove an ambulance like this in New York City and Long Island. Over the years, I moved up in rank all the way to Lieutenant. This is a reminder that anything is possible if you’re willing to put forth the time and effort.

    There is an intentional dumbing-down of American society, as evidenced by manufacturers being forced to print instructions on the backs of shampoo bottles.

    Snow Globes

    March 30, 2021 / No Comments

    I never ever understood the point of snow globes. It’s always the same thing, time and time again. Unbelievable flooding followed by a snowstorm.
