••I am: female, 27, living in the midwest, writing a memoir, chronically seeking adventure ••I have: a tendency to be dramatic, a husband who is far from dramatic, a loud and lovable family, friends I would lie down in traffic for, a killer sweet tooth ••This blog: is my gratitude journal, attempts to capture the everyday things that make me smile, keeps me writing

"Everything is only for a day, both that which remembers and that which is remembered.
