Family. Friends. Laughter. Love. Life stuff. Real life.

My dad had 21 copies of my kindergarten report card.

My teacher, Miss Murphy, wrote,

"Liz loves show and tell.

She likes to dramatize stories."

Welcome to my world!

Creativity. Serendipity. Peace and Quiet.

Loud music. Gratitude. New England. Simplicity.

Work. Share. Artsy people. Exercise. Home.

Family. Boston. Jack Rogers Navajo's. Friends.

Cape Cod. Outdoors. Sea glass. Watch Hill.

Golden Retrievers. Nature. L.L.Bean Boots.

Lilly Pulitzer colors. Beaches. Writing.

Neighbors. Community. Bare feet. Connecticut.

Beach art.New York City. Listening to people's stories. Subways. Travel. Clogs.

Big cities. Museums. Broadway Shows.

Mix things up a bit with me......

Me & My Blog

Thanks for checking out my blog. Isn't that an awkward word? Blog? Read my blog? Lots of people are afraid of blogs. It's like saying the word death....some people get uncomfortable. Some of my best friends act like I'm living in an alternate universe just because I write a blog. Some of them don't even know how to log on to their computer to read my blog. That's okay. I couldn't send an email until I started to blog. Darn word. I have been blogging for years now. It's for me. IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT ME!

Podcast is my new word. Now my kids make fun of me because I talk about great podcasts. I can't help it if I'm enthusiastic. "Did you hear that on one of your podcasts?" As if I can't sense their mocking tone! Ha! I still think I'm pretty cool. They're not convinced...yet. They're teenagers. What do they know? They don't even read my blog!

Wait until they hear I'm going to start a real live podcast. It should put them over the edge...and I love it. I love my family! Oh...and the blog....it's mine, mine, all mine! I don't have to share or give anyone the keys to borrow it. It is M I N E!

I've been writing since I picked up a pencil. I haven't put away my Crayola Crayons in my whole life. I started my blog because everyone always tells me that I should write a book! My blog is the next best thing.

I just write....about stuff. My life. My observations on life's little ironies. I like to look at the bright side. My life is better with gratitude and a sense of humor.

We're all busy living our life....and stuff happens along the way!
