As a child, it was so easy to believe it all. I wanted to be everything when I grew up. Well, now it's here. I'm grown up. This is the age when adults do adult things. I'm turning 29 in less than a month, and the people I babysat are grown up, too. As for … Continue reading Overflow and Fairytales

Lover’s Leap
This week, I took a hike in Chattanooga, TN. I hiked alone. There were places I wanted to see, and I was tired of waiting for a perfect day. The weather forecast looked terrible.
