Apparently I’ve been at this same blog, same name, with varying formats for twelve years. A lot has happened in my life during that time. My relationship with my now-husband was only a few months old when this blog started after I ditched my LiveJournal I had owned for about 8 years. Wow. I have […]

While I have lived in central Virginia since 2007, I will always feel tied to two places: Baltimore, Maryland (which you all have heard me talk about before – read Chris Jones and Lee Smith sharing thoughts on “Bmore”), and my hometown of Lexington, Virginia (aka “Lex Vegas”).
