About Me

I’m Rachel, and this is where I share…

∇ stories about my ordinary, at times quite awkward life

∇ things I’m interested in

∇ my attempts to improve myself considerably.

Real basic details you might like to know before proceeding further:

I’m married {to Tom}.

I have three children {Hosanna, Caleb, Drew}.

I’m the oldest of 10 {this might come up frequently, especially as I go through therapy. Kidding. Not kidding}.

I was married at 17, and now have been married over half my life {see above brackets}.

I live in the St. Louis area, but my actual favorite place to live is London. {I haven’t lived there yet but instinctively know this.}

I love to read. {I’ve been through some reading slumps in my life but am currently on a pretty upward book trend.}

Coffee is delicious. {Sorry to be cliche but I must be honest. No worries-I like tea, too!}

I would travel all the days if I could.

Just found out I’m an Enneagram type 1 wing 2 {probably}.

My favorite word is surreptitious.

I’ve always loved to write but through the years have often neglected this part of myself.

This is for you.

Thanks for being here! Now you’ve been warned.

Keep a song and adventure or two alive in your heart,

Rachel
