Santa Ponsa In Brief King James I of Aragon landed on the beach in Santa Ponsa in 1229 when he conquered Mallorca, wrestling it from the Moors who had ruled the island for over 300 years. Hardly a trace of its history is noticeable here as you wander around town, apart from a cross above […]
#VegasStrongAF
I’ve had a lot going on recently, and with that, I’ve had a lot to write about. A lot of very personal things to write about. It became a bit paralyzing. As a consequence, I could write about nothing. I decided that I needed to just pick something and jump back in, so here goes. […]

Delicious Ahi Tuna Poke
We’re back on Marco Island in Florida, and one of my favorite things to do is visit as many happy hours as possible.

I had to take a bit of a hiatus from blogging for our big move across state lines. I made the ridiculous, but necessary, choice to sell my condo and close on the new house on the same day in two different states, so coordinating the financials, moving everything out and actually getting to the […]

Baby’s 1st Birthday

The Little Things About Moving
I had to take a bit of a break from blogging to work on adulting for the past two weeks. I did manage to get quite a bit accomplished, and I’m happy to announce that I have a buyer under contract on my condo and I’m under contract on house in Nashville! It was a […]

Buying A House
We are trying to buy a house, and I pretty much can’t think of anything else right now. I have a condo that I’ve owned for 11 years, where I went to graduate school, but it is much too small for us, particularly us with the baby, and the constant grandparent visits are making us […]
