It’s my birthday

Written by liesel on January 21, 2014

Tomorrow is my 45th birthday. When I was younger I would throw myself big parties and stretch my birthday out for as long as possible – usually the entire month of January if I could manage it. I am an Aquarian with a Leo rising after all… But for the past several years I’ve spent […]


The story I’ve never told…

Written by liesel on March 27, 2013

We all have the “public story” and then we have the REAL story, right? The part that feels comfortable to share with strangers and the story that you tell only to your closest girlfriends.

A Good Start

Written by liesel on June 10, 2010

People often assume when they meet my husband Craig that I have always had “great” relationships. It’s actually far from true (apologies to any of my exes reading this). I spent almost all of my time from age 15 to 32 in relationships, but none them were great, in fact the long term ones were […]
