My life has been relatively unmarked by death. All four of my grandparents are alive. I have only been to two funerals in my lifetime. One was my great grandmother’s and the other was my grandmother’s brother. I was very young for both and didn’t understand the gravity of the situation. However, three tragedies have … More In Memory Of

So what’s been up with me lately? 1. Watching the rain. The weather has been CRAZY for that past two weeks.

By the time Sunday rolled around I was exhausted from poor sleeping and walking in heels (accidentally typed “hells” which is very accurate). Early morning … More 24 hours

Ok so the blog title is not as cool as I thought it was when it happened in my brain. What do you do when cleverness fails? You roll with the punches, and get hit in the face. Ouch. My blogging has been sporadic and relatively lame-o so here is a sample of my life … More My life insta(gram)ntly
So apparently a good amount of people actually read this blog. They must read about my super duper awesome, exciting, thrilling life and think to themselves, “I wish I did cool things like Kirsten”.
