Happy on My Own: Enjoying Life after Divorce

June 5, 2018 By Sage 31 Comments

Enjoying Life After Divorce

Today is a bit of a sad day for me because it was a year ago that sir fancypants and I boarded a cruise ship for what I thought was just another one in a lifetime of romantic trips. We drank Chardonnay at lunch, talking about someday sipping martinis as we crossed the Arctic Circle…. Continue Reading

Getting my groove back…

Divorced and Alone

Two months ago, I thought there were few things worse than being (twice) divorced and alone. Now I can tell you that there are far worse things than being divorced and alone. Being married to that arrogant pint-sized man-child and all of the bullshit and baggage that came with him was far worse than being… Continue Reading

Accepting divorce and moving on… what’s next?

Accepting Divorce and Moving On

As if being dumped by my husband less than three years into our marriage wasn’t horrible enough, I was living in a country where I don’t have a local support system. All while having to decide within like a week whether to stay in Denmark or move back to the States. I had to quickly… Continue Reading

Here’s where our love story ends…

Unexpected Divorce

We did that dance for months. I jumped through hoop after hoop trying to save myself from the trauma of an unwanted and unexpected divorce, and hoping that he’d love me again. My heart broke a bit more each time we went out and he didn’t hold my hand. He’d always held my hand. I… Continue Reading

A Thursday Morning in July

January 16, 2018 By Sage 31 Comments

Sudden Divorce

My life started unraveling on a Thursday morning this past July, barely four years to the day I’d met Robert, the Englishman I was madly in love with and thought I’d be sharing the rest of my life with. Like most days, I’d fed Opie, made a cup of coffee, looked over the day’s projects,… Continue Reading

Before & After: Our Mid Century Modern Bedroom

October 24, 2016 By Sage 23 Comments

Danish Mid Century Modern Bedroom

So our current apartment went on the market this past week, and I was blown away by how great it looks in the photos! But this place used to be a disaster because it was full of clutter and I’d inherited the biggest decorating mistake ever… furniture that was too big for our rooms. Clutter and Robert’s too… Continue Reading

A Birthday Trip & An Art Deco Wedding Ring

August 25, 2016 By Sage 13 Comments

French Art Deco Wedding Ring

Robert and I have our birthday traditions. We travel somewhere fabulous for mine, and stay home and eat cake with his kids for his. This year, we sort of reversed roles… I spent my birthday driving around rural Denmark in a moving van picking up mid-century Danish furniture and Robert spent his sailing around the Baltic sea! When… Continue Reading

Once upon a time, I had the chance to move to the happiest country in the world!

My restless Aries spirit liked that idea, so I did what any girl in my position would do… I grabbed my cat, booked a one-way ticket to Denmark, and became an expat!
