I collect moments the way some people collect souvenirs… some meaningful, some quirky, all real.
My life doesn’t look quite like most people’s. I’m a full-time lady nomad, living in my cozy little home on wheels since 2015. A decade later, I added extended-stay hotels to the mix.
I usually spend summers in northern Illinois and winters in southern Florida. As for the time in between, you’ll find me wandering willy-nilly.
My blend of van life, campground stays, and hotel setups is a lifestyle I call Portable Living.
But this isn’t a “how-to” blog about living in a van, at a campground, or a hotel. These are simply where my days unfold.
What you’ll find here are stories and ponderings from a life lived a bit differently, and a mind that wanders off the beaten path… shared one moment at a time.

Who’s Who and What’s What
Head over to my About page where I spill a few beans about myself and the life behind the writing.
You can also swing by my Meet the Regulars page and I’ll introduce you to the people, places, and things that often co-star in my stories.

Things I Write About
Family → Life as it happens with my daughter (Nikki), Auntie M, and the characters in my life who keep things interesting.
Health → Co-existing with a body that likes to do things differently… living with MCS, food allergies, and other health-related happenings.
Notes → Thoughts, reflections, and scribbles that don't fit the other topics. This is probably the heart of my blog.
Portable Living → My Connie-style nomadic life, the places I call home, and the road in between.
Sparks → Posts inspired by a fellow Blogger or a writing prompt I happened to come across. You never know what might spark a story.
