This is me. Ulrike 2.0

 As I get older, I’ve come to many realizations. With my body changing and the digits of each birthday rising, it’s become clear that I’m well past the halfway marker of my life. This scares me. Am I supposed to be at the highest achievement point now, where all my goals have been met and I can proudly announce to the world that I have arrived? I must have missed the handing out of the life handbook with all the “how-to and by-when” chapters. So, in the meantime, I’m doing me. While I have no control over most things that go on around me, I know that I am definitely the captain of my own ship—and I’d better steer it in the right direction! Can a middle-aged woman with many optical imperfections become a model? But really, the deeper question is: Can we be whatever we set our minds and intentions to be? The answer is yes. Absolutely. About three years ago, I had the idea to Google “mature model agencies near me.” There was no moment of hesitation, because when I ...

After the California fires - A reflection

Image
Coming from  Colorado Springs, we are no strangers to fires, and we are not talking romantic camp fires here. Looking back, it seems like fires have become the norm in recent years, unfortunately. I remember the 2012 Waldo Canyon fire too well that destroyed over 18.000 acres of beautiful land and almost wiped out an entire neighborhood of 346 homes in my home town of Colorado Springs, CO. https://youtu.be/-WydTS3WprM https://www.kktv.com/content/news/Neighbors-gather-five-years-after-homes-burned-in-Waldo-Canyon-Fire-430996283.html Only a short year later Black Forest, situated on the outskirts of Colorado Springs, was largely burned down after it lost over 14.000 acres of heavily pined land, and 486 homes plus the lives of 2 people. https://youtu.be/iHNKSp_qIDo Joe and recently arrived in beautiful Northern California, Napa Valley to be exact, where we are camp hosting for 4 months. But that subject will be another blog! For some reason it didnt ...

Christmas Traditions

Unreal. That's the word that comes to mind when reflecting back on 2024, but especially the Christmas season in Florida.  I received an unexpected and beautiful Christmas letter from my daughter across the country. The words that struck me the most were about her family tradition memories growing up.  Some of the delicious cookies we used to make included a German recipe passed down from my Mom. Two cookies pressed together, held together by a thin layer of cherry jam and topped off with homemade frosting. It was a torturous process that I always dreaded, but because the end result was too delicious, I endured the work. But in all honesty, the memories it brought back of my childhood in Germany and my childhood home were equally important. One tradition that I created was to go on evening drives in random neighborhoods to find the prettiest light spectacles to take in. The kids sitting in the backseat, chattering, laughing, and Christmas music playing on the radio. It felt goo...
