When life gives you a plot twist,

write a better story.

Stories, art and other cool things from a redhead who’s lived through some sh*t—
and her super cool husband who flies fighter jets.

Our Second “Act-Venture”

is Just Getting Started…

On paper, we never should’ve met.
A fighter pilot with a packed schedule and sky-high standards.
A medically retired single mom whose biggest job was surviving each day.
But we did meet—online, unexpectedly.
And somehow, it worked.
Ten years later, with the kids grown and the chaos behind us, we’re still choosing each other.
Now we’re figuring out what this next chapter looks like—with all the same honesty, heart, and humor that got us here.

Art

Painted with sass, taken with soul, and always a splash of caffeine.
These are not your grandma’s landscapes (unless your grandma’s a total badass). Each piece tells a story—sometimes messy, sometimes magical, always real. Hang it on your wall, gift it to your soul sister, or just stare at it like, “damn, that’s good.”

Stories

True tales, tall tales, and everything in between.
These are the words we couldn’t keep in. Some are raw, some are wrapped in fiction, and some are just little moments that made us laugh or cry or cuss. Read at your own risk—and maybe with snacks.
