About Me

Welcome, friend! I’m so glad you found my little corner of the ever-changing internet. Since 1997, I’ve been dreaming big—and this blog is where I share those dreams, the lessons they’ve taught me, and the faith that fuels them.

Dreaming Since 1997 is a space for storytelling, seasonal inspiration, and reflections on faith, creativity, and intentional living. I write about cozy routines, personal growth, and the beauty of everyday moments—often with a touch of nostalgia and a splash of pop culture.

I believe in the power of Jesus-inspired dreams—ones that guide us toward the life God lovingly designed specifically for us. My hope is that this space encourages you to reflect, pray, and dream boldly. Whether you’re here for seasonal checklists, spiritual encouragement, or just a dose of cozy comfort, I hope you find something that speaks to your heart.

A little about me: I’m a pharmacist, happily married, and living on the short coast of New Hampshire with my wonderful husband and our three beloved pets—a sociable beagle, a goofy Great Dane/Plott hound mix, and a sassy calico cat. When I’m not working at my pharmacy, you’ll find me crocheting, reading (especially my Bible), trying fancy cocktails, watching old movies, going to brunch, or soaking up sunshine on our deck.

All content is written and curated by me, Miriam, with love and intention. Thank you for being here—I’m excited to have you as a new friend.

Cheers!

Decor, Discipline, and Maybe even a Scented Candle🍂🕯️

  Good morning, reader! I feel a mindful essay coming on! Grab a coffee and maybe a notebook, because this essay has some numbered bullet points!  I have been thinking about discipline a lot lately. I feel like it goes hand in hand with attention span, self-awareness, and ambition. Is it becoming more and more rare? They say with smart phones, everyone's attention spans are diminishing. I have noticed this with myself sometimes. This is not a judgement- just an observation I've made about myself and the world around me. And I want to refine it for myself. I want to be disciplined so that I can live my dream life.  I am dedicating this post to 3 ways to be more disciplined in a world that has little to none. So, let's begin! 1. Why do you want this? I believe you should first recognize why you want to achieve something. Is it for your health? Is it for your career? Maybe it's less extreme than that. Maybe it's for your home to be decorated for Halloween. Whatever it ...

Spring Has Me Writing Again 🌼💛

  It has been a while, but I am back! It is so nice to be typing here again. After a busy fall, a holiday season that didn't slow down for a minute, and the harshest winter I've ever lived through, I finally feel like I can breathe, and write, again. I will do a quick recap of my life and then explain my plans for the future of this blog.  So, since my last post was in October, life has been full. Here's a little peek at what's been happening behind the scenes: 1. My cousin's wedding was a success! It was beautiful and now they are actually pregnant!!! I can't wait to meet their baby girl.  2. Thomas and I were fortunate to be a part of our friends' engagement that took place in Boston in December! It was so much fun celebrating the two of them and surprising the bride to be! Now I am excited to help her plan their wedding for next year! 3. I'm changing my career from retail pharmacy to hospital inpatient pharmacy! I start in exactly 3 weeks from today. ...
