I initially created ICovet as a travel journal for a one-month sojourn to Paris. However, when I returned, life took an unexpected turn. My 27-year marriage ended—cue the lemons—and I was devastated. But from those lemons came something unexpected: my writing journey.
Divorce sucks. There, I said it. I never saw it coming, and I certainly didn’t think it could happen to me. I was blindsided, but it didn’t kill me. If anything, it empowered me, made me stronger, and—strangely enough—I’m grateful for it.
I’ve turned things around—pardon the cliché—by taking those f**king lemons and making lemonade. I just turned 60, and there’s so much life left to live! I’m a mom to two amazing young men chasing their dreams. I’m also a Lover—yessss, there’s a man in my life! Proof that the universe really does listen.
And then there's Paris, my other great love—a city that’s always waiting for me with open arms. Now, I’m finally living my dream: a year of calling Paris home.
ICovet is where I share my stories, musings, rants, and opinions. A metaphor for all things I desire, crave, wish for, and want. So, follow me on this journey—lemonade in hand, and trust me, it’s tasting better than ever!
