Hello! Welcome to Life Inside The Page!

I have always written a paper journal of sorts. Writing down those day to day things in my life that inspire me, intrigue me, and teach me something new.  My life summed up as a journal of days with everyday being a blessing as I add another page to it watching the chapters of my life grow.

Sadly on one ordinary day my life changed drastically, and for a time I wrote as a release of the pain that comes with dealing with the loss of my only child; the murder of my daughter Angeline.  Years of anguish beyond words in dealing with both a criminal case, as well as a civil action forced me to experience things no parent ever should.  I wonder at times how I got through it but I know my Faith and the keyboard saved me then.

As I healed, I found enjoyment once more in sharing those other things that have inspired me...and here we are.

My home is my welcoming grounding point, so I am always looking for those things to bring out the warmth...from decor to fragrance.

Nature is what fills my heart with hope and wonder, while creating things with my hands lets me release my inner child.

You will find many cameras on me at any given time...they are an extension of my soul it would seem.  Capturing life's moments as they happen brings my heart so much joy.

And a very patient man has been at my side for over three decades, I think because of his love of food and my ever growing culinary skills.  Oh, and I have more beauty products than I care to admit even though I believe beauty comes from within.

So that is just a little bit about me...for now. The rest will be revealed daily.  Join Me!
