My name is Stephanie. I am in my forties and I live in North Vancouver, BC, where I work in payroll and bookkeeping.
I use this blog to record my thoughts on what makes my life valuable and worthwhile, and the experiences I have and new things I pursue in an attempt to appreciate the time I have in the world.
I am interested in people, books, movies, travel, cities, altruism, art, music, photography, things that make me laugh, and food. I am not athletic, but sporadically attempt bouts of fitness. I also seem to spend a lot of time thinking about feminism, pop culture, and politics. I live with a lovely husband and a small child – both of whom I adore. I use a lot of parentheses in my writing (sorry if that’s annoying, but apparently it’s how I think) and love to get comments.
I’m happy to have you here. Please stop by often and let me know what you think, because apparently I am needy and like feedback. (While also being thin-skinned and sensitive to criticism! Fun!)
My One Precious Life 
Brilliant! I found you on John’s site, which I love – inducted into the Versatile Blogger award fifteen, along with me 😉
I love what I’ve read of yours so far – and am going to share one of your quotes along w/your link on Facebook as well. Also putting you on my short blogroll. Good writing, gal! good writing.
Thank you so much! What lovely things to say and do!
Hey Stephanie, I am needy and need feedback as well, aren’t we all the same? I like your writing and your thoughts so far, I hope your “phase” won’t last too long and that you’ll keep writing 😉
Aw, thanks. I’m sure I’ll start again soon enough. Just not feeling it at the moment.
Hi Stephanie, I have been spending some time perusing your blog and have really enjoyed it. You have a lovely writing style that provides a lot of relational content. I have decided I simply must follow you.
Why thank you. I hope I will continue to please. (Have been a bit of a blogging slacker lately.)
No worries it’s part of the natural rhythms we call life. The nice…or maybe not so nice thing is our performance won’t affect our paycheck 🙂
I don’t know what’s going on with WordPress at the moment but I just realised I didn’t get your new posts anymore… Clicked follow again 🙂 Weird!
Yeah, my subscriptions went all weird too. Thanks for coming back!
yay for a fellow vancouverite! 🙂
Yeah, I reckon there’s a few of us out there. 🙂
I know how nice it is to get comments….enjoyed your “about me” writing….oh! and I use a lot of parentheses too lol! I will go take a look at your blog …..I think I’m going to like you a lot 🙂
Oh well, I hope so.
Thanks for checking out my blog, Stephanie. Sorry about the earworm of the “Beverly Hills Cop” theme. Nice blog!
Thanks! And no worries. It’s kind of a fun song.
you have a child now too!!! 😀
This is true! I should update this, I suppose.
