From My Corner Of…

The inspiration behind my name, From My Corner Of…

I think it’s ironic…my husband not so much! 

My husband and I are from the same small Michigan town in the northern portion of the lower peninsula. Although we didn’t know each other until we started dating late in our 20’s, our parents knew each other. Our mothers worked together as teenagers at the dime store and our fathers were in the same graduating class at our local high school. Anyway, until I was 6 years old, we (me and my future husband) lived on the same downtown street, just a few blocks apart. That part really isn’t relevant, I just think it’s kind of cool. Well the house that he lived in on this street was a corner house. He spent his entire childhood there and a bit beyond.  My parents moved from town when I was six, it was to a new house that they had built…on the corner of 2 gravel roads about 2 miles outside of town. I lived there until I was 20 years old. Through our 20’s, both of us lived in a few various apartments. But a year after we got married, we bought our first (7 year plan starter house), well 24+ years later and we’re still here…and if you hadn’t guessed…it’s a corner house! So both of us, have spent the majority of our lives, living in corner houses! I thought it was a perfect fit for my name choice! And no matter where I am in the world, and what I write about…it’s coming from…My Corner Of…
