Dorothy, we aren't in Kalamazoo anymore.....


Alcona Pond

My name is Andrea Mosley.  I grew up in Oscoda, Michigan.  After I graduated from college I relocated to Kalamazoo, Michigan.  Due to a family emergency, along with a remarriage to a man who loves the north country, I found myself back home again.  I am starting this blog in hopes of casting a humorous light on leaving my adopted home, going through a divorce and remarriage to a man with two children (one being a girl, a completely new experience for me).  Added to my burden is the fact that I took a ten dollar an hour pay cut, I have not one, but two parents with dementia, and my baby just moved to Kansas City to take a job with the railroad.  I have three dogs over 70 pounds and no where decent to buy groceries.  I hope you will enjoy reading my take on life here in the small, beautiful town on Lake Huron.

It turns out you can go home again, but it takes a village (and a good bottle of wine) to keep you sane.

    1. Deb I could only dream of being half the writer that you are....but I have been thinking of doing this for a while now as I think sometimes I can look at the humorous side of things (even if it takes me a few days). Thanks for reading!

  2. Andrea, I have always thought you should do or write comedy. You are the best storyteller I know! Can't wait to read more :)
