Welcome

Hello.

One of my favorite things to do is putter.

Contrary to dawdling my time away while I putter, I am in fact gaining something; a treasure, a new perspective on old surroundings, a reawakened sense of purpose, an invitation to slow down and to be present.

Puttering encompasses a variety of activities: spending too much time perusing favorite blogs (there are just so many good ones!), slowly and thoughtfully rearranging the shelves in my living room only to rearrange them back again, puttering through a vintage boutique, inspecting every item with consideration, spending my evening with a glass (or so) of wine and a pile of magazines ... the list doth go on. Since having a baby (who is now almost a year-old, how time flies) my opportunities for puttering are rare. Most days I feel successful if I manage to do a load of laundry and get dinner on the table.

I have big plans to nurture my creative side more - the side that has been rather dormant and sleep-deprived as of late - and to overall be a better version of myself. I hope this blog will encourage me to be more conscientious about documenting my life, and more intentional about living a life worth sharing.

Putter will be reflective of my life and the things that I do. Come putter with me.
